What to know about Faucet repair
A dripping faucet is one of the most common calls a plumber gets, and one of the easiest to put off. The drip seems minor, but it runs day and night, stains the sink and, on the hot side, wastes water you already paid to heat. Faucet repair covers leaks from the spout or handle, water pooling around the base, weak or sputtering flow, stiff or loose handles and leaks in the cabinet underneath.

How to choose plumbers in Saint John
- Hire a plumber who is licensed for this work in your province, especially for gas water heaters, sewer lines and new plumbing.
- Ask whether they charge a flat rate or by the hour, and what the call-out fee covers.
- For leaks and drain problems, choose someone who explains the cause and doesn't only clear the symptom.
- Get the scope in writing for larger jobs such as a water heater, sewer repair or re-piping.
- If it's urgent, ask how soon they can arrive and whether after-hours rates apply.

- What warranty do you offer on parts and labour?

Common faucet repair questions
Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?
Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.
How many pros will contact me?
We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.
Do I have to hire someone?
No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
