Leaking Faucet Repair 

A dripping faucet may not seem urgent, but it can waste water and become frustrating fast. Leaks may come from worn cartridges, washers, seals, handles, supply lines, or connections under the sink.

Shanks Onsite Services can inspect the faucet, identify the source of the leak, and let you know whether repair or replacement makes the most sense.

Helpful tip: If water is leaking under the sink, turn off the small shutoff valves below the fixture if they work. If they do not shut off properly, the valves may need to be repaired or replaced too.

Faucet Replacement and Installation

Sometimes replacing the faucet is the better option, especially if the fixture is older, corroded, leaking repeatedly, or difficult to repair.

We install many types of customer-supplied faucets and fixtures, including:

• Bathroom faucets

• Kitchen faucets

• Pull-down kitchen faucets

• Single-handle faucets

• Two-handle faucets

• Utility sink faucets

• Laundry sink faucets

• Bar/prep sink faucets

• Shower and tub fixtures, depending on access and scope

A proper faucet installation includes checking the connections, securing the fixture, connecting supply lines, and testing for leaks before the job is finished.

A new faucet often involves more than just the faucet itself. Sink drains, pop-up assemblies, supply lines, shutoff valves, and traps may also need attention.

We can help with:

• Sink drain leaks

• Pop-up drain repair or replacement

• P-trap leaks

• Supply line replacement

• Shutoff valve replacement

• Garbage disposal connections

• Bathroom vanity fixture connections

• Kitchen sink fixture connections

If you are replacing a vanity, sink, countertop, or faucet, it’s important that the plumbing connections are secure and leak-free.

Shanks Onsite Services also helps with sink installation and sink-related plumbing repairs for bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and utility spaces.

We can help with:

• Bathroom vanity sink installation

• Vanity faucet and drain connections

• Kitchen sink installation

• Drop-in/overmount kitchen sinks

• Undermount kitchen sinks

• Utility sink installation

• Sink drain connections

• P-trap and disposal connections

• Sink leak repairs

• Repairs for improperly mounted undermount sinks

A sink installation is more than just setting the sink in place. The faucet, drain, supply lines, shutoff valves, disposal, dishwasher connection, and seal all need to be done correctly to help prevent leaks and future problems.

Undermount Sink Repair

Undermount sinks need to be supported and sealed properly. If an undermount sink was installed incorrectly, it may start to separate from the countertop, sag, leak, or pull away over time.

Shanks Onsite Services can take a look and let you know whether the sink can be repaired, re-secured, resealed, or if additional work is needed.

Helpful tip: If your undermount sink is pulling away from the countertop, avoid filling it with heavy dishes or standing water until it is checked. Extra weight can make the issue worse.

Bathroom fixtures get used every day, so even small leaks or loose parts can become a headache.

We help with bathroom plumbing fixtures such as:

• Bathroom sink faucets

• Toilet supply lines

• Toilet shutoff valves

• Toilet repair parts

• Shower valves and trim, depending on the issue

• Tub spouts

• Pop-up drains

• Vanity plumbing connections

If your bathroom faucet drips, your sink drains slowly, or you notice water under the vanity, we can help find the cause.

Kitchen faucets and sink fixtures work hard every day. Leaks, sprayer issues, loose faucets, and low flow can all make daily tasks frustrating.

We help with:

• Kitchen faucet replacement

• Pull-down faucet installation

• Sprayer problems

• Leaks under the kitchen sink

• Shutoff valve issues

• Dishwasher connection concerns

• Garbage disposal-related plumbing connections

• Sink drain repairs

Helpful tip: If there is water under your kitchen sink, dry the area and place a paper towel under the pipes or supply lines. This can help show where the leak is coming from until a plumber arrives.

Not every plumbing job is a big emergency. Sometimes you need a new fixture connected properly, an old valve replaced, or a water line added where it needs to go.

Shanks Onsite Services can help with utility and appliance-related plumbing connections, including:

• Laundry room utility sinks

• Utility sink faucets and drain connections

• Washer box installation and replacement

• Washing machine valve replacement

• Hammer arrestors for washing machines and fixtures

• Basement pump setups, depending on the scope

• Ice maker valve replacement

• Ice maker water lines

• Refrigerator water lines

• Fridge line shutoff valves

• Garbage disposal installation and replacement

• Dishwasher connection concerns

• Laundry and utility room plumbing repairs

• Small fixture and appliance water line updates

Proper connections matter. A small leak behind a washer, under a sink, or behind a refrigerator can cause damage before you even notice it.

Helpful tip: If you are replacing a washing machine, refrigerator, or dishwasher, it is a good time to check the shutoff valves and supply lines. Older valves may not fully shut off when you need them.

Outdoor faucets, also called hose bibs, can leak, drip, freeze, or fail over time. A leaking hose bib may not seem like much, but it can waste water and keep your meter running.

Shanks Onsite Services can help with hose bib repairs and replacements, so your outdoor water connection works properly.

Signs your hose bib may need attention:

• Dripping when turned off

• Water leaking behind the siding or wall

• Handle is hard to turn

• Hose connection leaks

• Low flow outside

• Water meter runs when nothing is being used

A fixture shutoff valve is easy to forget about until you need it. If the valve behind your toilet, under your sink, or near a fixture will not turn, leaks, or does not fully stop the water, it may need to be replaced.

Working shutoff valves make future repairs easier and can help limit water damage during an emergency.

We help replace shutoff valves for:

• Toilets

• Bathroom sinks

• Kitchen sinks

• Utility sinks

• Ice maker lines, depending on setup

• Other accessible fixtures

Already bought a faucet, sink, or fixture? Shanks Onsite Services can help install many customer-supplied plumbing fixtures.

Before installation, we may check:

• Whether the fixture fits your existing sink, vanity, countertop, or plumbing setup

• If the shutoff valves are working properly

• If new supply lines are needed

• If the drain assembly, pop-up, or trap needs to be replaced

• If there is corrosion, previous damage, or access issues

• If any additional parts are needed for a proper installation

Helpful tip: You do not have to supply the fixture yourself. If you would rather skip the shopping, checkout process, and guesswork, we can help source the right product for your home. In many cases, fixtures and parts from our plumbing suppliers may be a better fit and better quality than what is available on the shelf.

Taking a few minutes to check these details helps avoid surprises and gives you a cleaner, safer, better finished result.
