A dripping faucet at one drip per second wastes over 3,000 gallons per year. Past the water cost, the drip often signals a worn cartridge or deteriorated seat-and-spring assembly that will worsen over time โ eventually leaking continuously or becoming stiff and difficult to operate. Masters Plumbing Service's faucet techs in Sumrall, MS identify the specific valve type in your fixture, source the correct replacement cartridge or repair kit, and restore full, drip-free operation in a single visit.

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 Sumrall, MS.
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 โ 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.
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 โ it can cause scalding or cold-water bypass.
Shower valves โ particularly pressure-balance and thermostatic mixing valves โ are more complex than a kitchen sink faucet and have safety implications if repaired incorrectly. We carry cartridges for the major pressure-balance valve brands common in Sumrall, MS homes and understand the anti-scald setpoint calibration that should be verified after any shower valve cartridge replacement.
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.
Most faucet repairs complete in a single visit with parts on the truck.
Older kitchen faucets with two separate handles use compression valves โ each handle has a rubber seat washer that wears and needs periodic replacement. We stock washers and seat tools for these older designs, which are still common in Sumrall, MS homes built before 1980.
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 โ telling us which handle's valve needs attention.
After cartridge replacement, we verify anti-scald calibration โ the maximum hot water limit set by the cartridge rotational stop โ to confirm the valve won't deliver scalding water at full hot even if a supply pressure event occurs.
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.
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.
When a faucet is discontinued (no available replacement cartridge), heavily corroded at the body, or simply past useful life, we replace the fixture. We supply faucets in the common hole configurations (single-hole, three-hole, widespread) and in finishes to match your existing hardware โ chrome, brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze.
We identify the valve type before ordering or installing any part. The right cartridge for your faucet brand is what produces a lasting result โ not a generic part that fits loosely.
If you know the brand โ Moen, Delta, Kohler, Price Pfister โ tell us. If not, the tech will identify it on-site from the valve body and handle design.
For many major-brand cartridges โ Moen 1225, Delta RP46074, Kohler GP30413 โ the part is on the truck and the repair proceeds immediately.
You receive a flat-rate quote covering parts and labor before the water is shut off under the sink. Common repairs โ cartridge replacement, ball assembly rebuild, aerator service โ are straight-forward pricing with no variable labor component.
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.

My kitchen faucet had been dripping for two years โ I kept putting it off. Masters Plumbing Service's tech identified it as a Delta ball-type faucet and had the complete repair kit on his truck: new ball, springs, seats, and O-rings. The whole rebuild took 40 minutes. The faucet moves smoothly now and there's absolutely no drip. I only wish I'd called sooner given how much water I was wasting.
My shower temperature was impossible to control โ any toilet flush or washing machine cycle would cause a cold spike mid-shower. Masters Plumbing Service replaced the pressure-balance cartridge in the Kohler valve, set the anti-scald stop at 120ยฐF, and tested temperature stability by running the toilet while the shower ran. The swing went from 15+ degrees to less than 2. That's how a pressure-balance valve is supposed to work.
Low flow in the master bath โ 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.
