Quick answer: A dripping faucet usually has a worn cartridge, washer or O ring. In hard water areas, mineral buildup speeds that wear. Most drips can be fixed by replacing the worn part. If the faucet is old or corroded, replacement may be more practical.

Faucets and sinks get used dozens of times a day, so wear is inevitable. Cartridges, washers and O rings break down and cause drips. Slip nuts and trap connections under the sink loosen and leak. Supply lines and old shutoff valves corrode, and aerators clog with minerals. Fullerton Plumbing repairs kitchen, bathroom and laundry faucets and sinks, including the drain assembly, trap and supply connections underneath, which is where many leaks actually start and go unnoticed until the cabinet floor is ruined.

One customer called us on a Saturday afternoon with a leaking kitchen sink. Our technician was there within 30 minutes and fixed the drain promptly, even working around problems left by a previous homeowner. That kind of practical fix is most of what we do. When a faucet is worn out, outdated or you simply want a new look, we install new faucets and sinks too. You get an upfront quote before any work starts, and we leave the area clean and dry.

How it works

Our Faucet and Sink Repair Process

Find the Leak Source

We check the faucet, supply lines, shutoff valves, drain assembly and trap to find exactly where water is coming from. Many under sink leaks come from the drain side, not the faucet, so we test both.

Recommend Repair or Replace

If a cartridge, washer or seal will solve it, we repair the faucet. If the faucet is corroded, discontinued or failing in several places, replacement is often smarter. You get an upfront quote either way.

Make the Fix

We replace worn parts, reseal connections, install new supply lines or shutoff valves, rebuild the drain and trap, or install a new faucet or sink, using parts suited to your fixture and plumbing.

Test for Leaks

We run hot and cold water, fill and drain the sink, and check every connection under the cabinet for drips. Then we clean up and make sure the cabinet is dry.

Why New York Faucets and Sinks Wear Out

Hard water is a big factor in parts of New York. In western New York and the Finger Lakes, where limestone puts minerals in the water, scale builds up in aerators and cartridges, slowing flow and wearing seals so faucets start dripping sooner. Older homes in Albany, Troy, Schenectady and Buffalo often still have original shutoff valves that seize after decades without use, plus galvanized or old brass drain parts that corrode. Basement laundry sinks in cold spaces see condensation and freeze risk. Past do it yourself repairs are common too, and they often need to be redone.

For a leak that will not wait, call Fullerton at (518) 776-7838. We answer 24/7, serve all of New York State from our Albany base, and handle everything from a simple drip to a complete faucet and sink replacement. You get an upfront quote before any work starts, and we leave your kitchen or bathroom clean and dry, with every connection checked for drips.

Pricing

What Affects the Cost of Faucet and Sink Repair

Faucet and sink repair cost depends on the fix and the fixture. Replacing a cartridge or washer is simpler than rebuilding a drain assembly or swapping seized shutoff valves. Brand and model affect parts availability. A new faucet or sink installation depends on the fixture you choose and whether the counter, supply lines or drain need changes. Tight cabinets and corroded old connections add time. We give you an upfront quote before any work starts.

FAQ

Faucet and Sink Repair Questions, Answered

A dripping faucet usually has a worn cartridge, washer or O ring. In hard water areas, mineral buildup speeds that wear. Most drips can be fixed by replacing the worn part. If the faucet is old or corroded, replacement may be more practical.

Common sources are loose slip nuts on the drain trap, a worn basket strainer seal, a failing supply line or a corroded shutoff valve. A dishwasher or disposal connection can also leak. Put a dry towel down and run water to see where it appears, then call us.

If the faucet is in good shape and one part failed, repair is usually worth it. If it is corroded, leaking from several places, or parts are hard to find, replacement often costs about the same and lasts longer. We give you both options upfront.

Yes. We install customer supplied faucets and sinks. Check that the faucet fits your sink holes and counter before buying. If the existing shutoff valves or supply lines are old, we may recommend replacing them during installation so you do not have a leak later.

When only one faucet is weak, the cause is usually local: a clogged aerator, a mineral filled cartridge, a kinked supply line or a partly closed shutoff valve. If several fixtures are weak, the issue may be in your main supply or pipes.

Yes. We answer 24/7, including weekends and holidays. One customer called on a Saturday afternoon about a leaking kitchen sink and our technician arrived within 30 minutes. Arrival time depends on location and demand, but we always dispatch the nearest available technician.
