Why Do Faucets Start Leaking or Break?
Faucets can break down or start leaking for many reasons, some minor and some surprisingly major. A dripping faucet usually simply indicates a broken o-ring or washer, for instance, while a leaking valve will need to be replaced entirely. Different types of faucets leak and break for different reasons, too: single cartridges are more susceptible to corrosion on average than compression faucets, for instance. Overall, the most common reasons why faucets leak or break include:
- Worn o-rings
- Worn washers
- Corroded or broken internal seals
- Corroded or damaged valves or valve seats
- Worn cartridges
- Damaged or corroded internal hardware
Several factors contribute to when and why your faucet will break, as well. O-rings and washers wear down after a few years, depending on the hardness and pressure of your water. Contemporary faucets typically last 15 to 20 years but will rust or corrode faster if exposed to hard water or leaks. Most importantly, the longer a leak goes unaddressed, the worse it becomes–and the faster it ruins your faucet altogether.
Why Should I Choose Professional Sink Faucet Repair?
Minor faucet problems are usually pretty easy to fix yourself. You can replace an o-ring or washer with a trip to a hardware store. Unfortunately, however, some other common reasons faucets break or leak can be tougher to handle. First, you’d have to identify the source of the problem, which could be any number of faulty, worn, or broken internal components. Then, you have to disassemble the faucet, replace the component, and reassemble without making any mistakes.
This is where pros like the experts at Ben Franklin can help. We can quickly and capably identify and fix your faucet’s problem whenever you call us–regardless of your faucet’s age, type, or problem. Whether you need a simple fix or a complete replacement, we can handle it all then and there.

Faucet Repair FAQ
Why won’t my faucet stop dripping?
All kinds of small wear-and-tear can make your faucet drip. The valves could be corroded, the o-ring could be worn down, or the faucet itself could be misaligned. Whatever the underlying issue, a dripping faucet is often an early sign that something’s wrong.
Why is my faucet leaking and how can I make it stop?
Leaking faucets are usually the result of worn out o-rings, washers, or inner seals. If you have a cartridge faucet, it’s also possible that the cartridge itself is worn out. These leaks are easily fixed by replacing the worn component. You can find replacements at your local hardware store.
How to fix a dripping faucet in my bathroom?
If your bathroom faucet is dripping, replacing the o-ring or washer is the most likely solution. Follow these instructions:
- Turn off the water
- Remove the handle caps
- Loosen the handle screws to remove the handles
- Loosen the packing nuts
- Remove the stem
- Remove and replace the o-ring and washers
- Reassemble
How do I choose the right faucet?

- Price point: expect to spend at least $60
