Most of the repair calls we get from St. Louis homeowners involve leaking pipes and fittings, dripping faucets, running or rocking toilets, clogged sinks and tubs, worn shutoff valves, garbage disposals that jam or leak, and sump pumps that stop cycling. Whatever the issue, we find the underlying cause first so the fix holds instead of coming back a few weeks later.
We start with the visible clues, like stains, soft drywall, damp cabinets or a water meter that moves when nothing is running. From there we trace supply and drain lines, test fixtures and connections, and narrow it down to the exact failure point before opening anything up. Diagnosing first keeps repairs smaller and avoids cutting into walls or floors that do not need it.
It depends on the fixture’s age, condition and parts availability. A faucet or toilet with a worn cartridge, seal or fill valve is usually worth repairing. If the body is cracked or corroded, or the leaks keep coming back, replacement often costs less over time. Our technician will explain what we found and walk you through both options so you can decide.
A toilet that keeps running usually has a worn flapper that no longer seals, a fill valve that is set too high or failing, or a lift chain that is too short or tangled. Besides the noise, a running toilet can waste a surprising amount of water every day. We find which part is at fault, replace or adjust it, and test the flush so the tank fills and stops the way it should.
Low pressure at a single fixture usually comes from a clogged aerator or a worn cartridge. Low pressure across the whole house can point to a failing pressure regulator, a partially closed main valve, corroded older pipes or a hidden leak. We check each possibility in order and recommend the simplest repair that restores normal flow throughout your home.
