Bathroom Faucet Repair near me in Cathedral City
Bathroom faucets come in single-handle, two-handle and widespread designs, each with its own cartridges or valve stems. Scale wears O-rings and seats, causing drips and stiffness. Showerheads and aerators clog with mineral deposits, reducing flow and spraying unevenly.
Most repairs involve cartridges, stems, washers and seals. Older compression faucets may be worth replacing. For bathroom faucet repair near me, call (760) 273-8147.

- Wipe fixtures dry
- Don't overtighten handles
- Replace old valves along with faucets
Single-handle, two-handle and widespread faucets
The fix depends on the style of faucet. Single-handle bathroom faucets use one cartridge that controls both temperature and flow; when it scales up, the handle stiffens and the spout drips, and a new cartridge usually solves both. Two-handle centerset faucets have a valve under each handle; older ones use rubber washers and seats, while newer ones use ceramic quarter-turn cartridges that hold up much better in hard water. Widespread faucets have separate handles and spout connected under the sink, so a leak under the vanity can come from any of three connections.
When you call, it helps to know which type you have and the brand, often printed on the faucet or handle. If the faucet is more than 15 years old or the finish is pitted, replacement is often the better value than hunting for parts.
