Faucet Repair in Durant, MS — Drip Stopped, Pressure Restored
Low water flow at a kitchen or bathroom faucet is almost always a clogged aerator or a partially failed cartridge — not low supply pressure. Stiff handles, dripping spouts, and leaks under the sink each trace to specific internal components. Our techs in Durant know faucet valve anatomy across all the major brands and carry the parts to fix them.

What We Bring to Every Faucet Repair Call in Durant, MS
Faucet repair looks simple until the wrong cartridge is installed, a seat-and-spring assembly is put in backwards, or a corroded packing nut strips during removal. Our techs know the specific disassembly sequence for the faucets they work on in Durant, MS.
🔩
Valve-Type Specific Expertise
Ball faucets, cartridge faucets, ceramic disc faucets, and compression faucets all fail differently and require different repair approaches. A ball-type faucet drips from a worn ball, springs, seats, or O-rings — all small parts that come in a manufacturer-specific repair kit. A cartridge faucet drip is almost always solved by cartridge replacement. Knowing which type you have before touching it determines whether the repair takes 30 minutes or 2 hours.
🏷️
Brand Knowledge Across Major Lines
We identify the brand and model from the fixture, source the correct OEM or high-quality aftermarket cartridge, and install it correctly. Using the wrong cartridge on a pressure-balance shower valve doesn't just drip — it can cause scalding or cold-water bypass.
🚿
Shower & Tub Valve Specialists
Thermostatic shower valves (separate volume and temperature controls) are premium fixtures found in master baths where comfort and safety depend on correct cartridge specification. We don't substitute cheaper cartridges on thermostatic valves.
💧
Under-Sink Leak Diagnosis
Leaving a slow under-sink leak unaddressed damages the cabinet interior and subfloor. We identify the source, quote the repair, and execute it same visit in most cases.
Our Faucet Services
From Kitchen to Shower — Faucet Repair Across Your Home
Most faucet repairs complete in a single visit with parts on the truck.
Kitchen
Kitchen Faucet Repair & Replacement
Kitchen faucet issues typically present as: a dripping spout (worn cartridge or ball assembly), a leak at the base (failed O-ring at the faucet body), stiff or jerky handle movement (mineral deposits or corroded cartridge tracks), or reduced flow (clogged aerator or partially closed supply valve). We diagnose the cause, repair the specific component, and test for full leak-free operation.
Bathroom
Bathroom Sink Faucet Repair
Two-handle bathroom faucets (separate hot and cold) are often compression or ceramic disc designs. A drip from a two-handle set almost always comes from one side only — telling us which handle's valve needs attention.
Shower
Shower Valve Cartridge Replacement
After cartridge replacement, we verify anti-scald calibration — the maximum hot water limit set by the cartridge rotational stop — to confirm the valve won't deliver scalding water at full hot even if a supply pressure event occurs.
Outdoor
Outdoor Spigot & Hose Bibb Repair
Outdoor hose bibbs fail in two ways: a dripping spout (worn stem packing or seat washer) or a leak at the packing nut behind the handle (deteriorated packing material around the stem). Most hose bibb repairs involve replacing the seat washer and packing without removing the body from the wall.
Low Flow
Aerator Cleaning & Flow Restoration
Persistent low flow after aerator cleaning points to a partially failed cartridge that's not opening fully, or a kinked supply hose under the sink. We trace the restriction and resolve it.
Replacement
Full Faucet Replacement
We handle the full installation: shut the supply, disconnect the old faucet, inspect the supply lines and angle stop valves, install the new faucet, connect supply, adjust the aerator, and verify drip-free operation before leaving.
Here's exactly how a Masters Plumbing Service faucet repair call runs in Durant, MS.
1
Call & Describe Your Faucet Symptom
Drip at the spout? Leak at the base? Stiff handle? Low flow? Knowing the symptom and, if possible, the faucet brand lets us arrive with the most likely replacement parts already stocked on the truck.
2
Valve Type Identification & Diagnosis
The tech identifies the faucet's valve type (ball, cartridge, ceramic disc, or compression), locates the specific cartridge or repair kit number for that model, and checks whether the required part is on the truck or needs to be sourced.
3
Flat-Rate Quote & Repair Execution
You receive a flat-rate quote covering parts and labor before the water is shut off under the sink. Common repairs — cartridge replacement, ball assembly rebuild, aerator service — are straight-forward pricing with no variable labor component.
4
Verify Zero Drip Before Leaving
After repair, we run the faucet through the full temperature range, check the spout, base, handle, and supply connections for any drip, and confirm the aerator flow is unrestricted. The repair is complete when we can demonstrate it's dry and flowing correctly.
Customer Reviews
Real Faucet Repair Reviews from Durant, MS
★★★★★
Single-handle Moen bathroom faucet dripping at the spout. Tech pulled the cartridge — an old 1200 design that was heavily scaled — swapped in a new Moen cartridge, adjusted the flow limiter, and the faucet has been silent for three months. Clean work, fast, reasonably priced.
— K. Svensson, Durant
★★★★★
Had a hose bibb that dripped at the packing nut all summer. Tech replaced the packing material and seat washer in 20 minutes. Also told me the freeze-proof stem length was correct for my wall depth, which was reassuring heading into winter.
— P. & G. Delacroix, Durant, MS
★★★★★
Low flow in the master bath — I assumed the pressure regulator was failing. Tech cleaned the aerator (heavily scaled), and flow went from a trickle to full pressure immediately. 10-minute fix, saved me from chasing a pressure problem that didn't exist.

Common Questions
Faucet Repair FAQ for Durant, MS Homeowners
At one drip per second — which looks minor — a faucet wastes roughly 3,000 gallons per year. At average residential rates in MS, that's approximately $15–$25 per year per dripping faucet. A faster drip or multiple faucets multiply that cost. The EPA estimates that fixing all the leaks in an average home saves 10% on annual water bills.
For most faucets from established brands — Moen, Delta, Kohler, Price Pfister — replacement cartridges and repair kits are available and the fixture is worth repairing. We carry or can source these parts and prefer repair over replacement when the faucet body itself is in good condition.
Temperature swings during a shower — particularly when another fixture is used elsewhere in the house — indicate a failing pressure-balance cartridge. The cartridge's job is to compensate for supply pressure changes caused by other fixtures drawing hot or cold water, keeping shower temperature stable. When the cartridge wears, it loses this compensation ability and temperature follows the pressure fluctuation.
Stiffness in a faucet handle is usually caused by mineral scale accumulation on the cartridge tracks and O-ring contact surfaces, or a cartridge that's beginning to seize from corrosion. In many cases, a new cartridge — which comes with new lubricated O-rings and a clean ceramic or plastic body — restores smooth operation completely.
Cartridge faucets use a replaceable ceramic or plastic cartridge that slides in and out of the valve body — repair means pulling the old cartridge and installing the new one in the correct orientation. Ball faucets use a rotating stainless-steel or brass ball with ports that align with supply inlets — repair means a rebuild kit with new ball (if scored), springs, seats, and O-rings installed into the cleaned valve body.
Cartridge replacement on a standard bathroom or kitchen faucet: 30–45 minutes. Ball faucet rebuild: 45–60 minutes. Shower pressure-balance cartridge replacement and anti-scald verification: 60–90 minutes. Aerator cleaning: 15 minutes. Full faucet replacement (fixture supplied): 60–90 minutes.
