Faucet repair and installation in Las Vegas and Clark County
Cartridges, valves and replacements. Hard water is why valley faucets seize earlier than the box promises.
Figures above are published third party data, not company claims. Sources: Las Vegas Valley Water District, water district hardness figure, water district supply figure, Clark County.
A faucet that drips, sticks or will not shut off is usually a cartridge or a seat, not a new faucet. In 17 grain water those parts scale up and seize sooner than they would elsewhere, which is why this is such a common valley call.
Most of these are repairs. One or two mean replacement.
If flow from one faucet is weak, unscrew the aerator at the tip of the spout and look inside. In this valley it is very often packed with white mineral scale. Cleaning or replacing an aerator is a minutes long job and it fixes a surprising share of low flow complaints for the cost of nothing.
The deciding factors are the part, the finish and whether the fixture is worth keeping.
| Situation | The usual answer |
|---|---|
| Dripping spout | A cartridge, seat or O ring. A repair, and usually a quick one, provided the part is available for that model. |
| Stiff or seized handle | Mineral build up in the cartridge. Replace the cartridge and it feels new. |
| Leaking at the base | Seals or the mounting. Repairable in most cases. |
| Discontinued model with no parts | Replacement, and it is worth knowing that a very cheap faucet often has no parts path at all. |
| Corroded or pitted finish | Replacement, because the finish is not repairable and the internals are usually the same age. |
| Supply line or shut off leaking | Not the faucet. Those parts get replaced, and a shut off valve that no longer closes is worth doing while access is open. |
Brand and model where visible, because parts availability decides repair against replace. A photograph on the call helps.
On the callSpout, base, handle or supply. They look similar under a cabinet and they are different repairs.
On siteCartridge and seal work where the part exists. New fixture fitted where it does not, including new supply lines.
Same visit where parts allowWhile we are under there, the shut off valves get checked, because a valve that will not close turns a future faucet job into a whole house water shut down.
Same visitIf you are buying a new faucet yourself, the single most useful question is whether replacement cartridges are available for it. That answer predicts how long it lasts here better than the price does.
No rate or range for this work is published anywhere on this site, because none has been confirmed for publication for this business. What follows is the honest version: what actually moves the number on a job like this, so you can read any quote and judge it.
Describe what is happening and you will hear what it usually means, what the repair involves and what somebody needs to see before quoting it. That happens whether or not you book the work.
Yes, and usually cheaply. It is a cartridge or a seal in most cases. It is also wasting water continuously, which in a valley that watches its water is worth a few minutes of someone time.
Yes. We will fit it, fit new supply lines, and tell you honestly if the fixture is a design that will give you trouble. That is more useful before it is installed than after.
Hard water. Mineral deposits build up inside cartridges and on seats, so the wearing parts wear faster than the manufacturer expected. It is the most common reason valley faucets outlive their internals by years.
A new site with a wall of glowing testimonials should make you suspicious, and this one does not have them because no review corpus has been verified for this brand. Rather than fill the space with invented quotes, these are three things about your water and your county that you can check against the agency that published them.
The Las Vegas Valley Water District publishes valley tap water at 291 parts per million, 17 grains per gallon, and categorises it as very hard. It is the reason fixtures and water heaters here do not last as long as the box promised.
Read the water district pageThe Southern Nevada Water Authority states that removing calcium and magnesium softens water but is not a necessity to protect your health. Any company telling you otherwise is contradicting the agency that tests your supply.

Almost always a scaled aerator or a clogged cartridge, which in 17 grain water is common. Unscrew the aerator and look for white mineral deposits. If cleaning it fixes the flow, you have saved yourself a service call.
A straightforward replacement in an accessible cabinet is typically under an hour. Difficult access, corroded shut off valves or a different mounting configuration take longer.
When a faucet is replaced, yes. Braided supply lines have a service life, and a failed one delivers water at full pressure into a cabinet. They are inexpensive and doing them while access is open is the cheap moment.
They work well and they need power, and the electronics are another thing that can fail. In hard water the mechanical parts still scale, so it changes convenience rather than longevity.
It can, and so can the supply lines, the shut off valves, the drain connection or the sink seal. All five look identical once the cabinet floor is wet, which is why the leak path gets traced before anything is replaced.
