Read the guide ↗]() START WHERE YOU SEE THE WATER 01 / WHAT’S GOING ON? ## A drip. A puddle. *Two different stories.* Notice where the leak starts and whether the faucet is running. That helps us follow the pressurized supply or the drain below the basin. FROM THE SPOUT ### [It won’t stop dripping.]() The cartridge, valve seats or seals may not be closing properly. The faucet design determines the repair. Look inside the cartridge ↗ WHEN IT’S RUNNING ### [Where did the flow go?]() Start with the outlet and compare hot with cold. Debris, a supply restriction or the cartridge can change the flow. Inspect the outlet ↗ BELOW THE SINK ### [The cabinet is wet.]() Supply water, a drain connection, the sink seal or a hose can leak. We trace the source before choosing a part. Explore underneath ↗ **Water escaping into the cabinet?** Stop using the fixture. If you can safely operate its shutoffs, close them. Don’t force a seized valve—call for help. [Call Mountain Man ↗]() A SMALL PIECE OF EVERYDAY ENGINEERING 02 / THE FAUCET EXPLORER ## One little handle. *A lot happening inside.* Turn the faucet around. Open its shell. Separate the parts and follow the water from the supply lines to the stream. SINGLE-HANDLE / CERAMIC-DISC FAUCET TRY IT Hot and cold enter separately. The cartridge controls what reaches the spout. Choose a demonstration or explore a labelled part. Opening the faucet cutaway… DRAG TO ROTATE · PINCH TO ZOOM Choose a part below to take a closer look. Tap closed Handle opening Closed Water mix Cold **↔** Hot Lift the handle to open the flow and turn it to blend hot and cold water. The colors trace those water paths through the cartridge. WHAT IT DOES ### The cartridge controls the water. The cartridge is the replaceable valve inside the faucet. Moving the handle slides ceramic discs inside it, opening water passages and blending hot and cold water. WHAT YOU MIGHT NOTICE A steady drip with the handle off, a stiff handle, or leaking around the handle can point here. Identify the faucet model to match its service parts. WHAT A REPAIR INVOLVES Identify the faucet and inspect the cartridge and its seals. Use the correct service part, then test shutoff, mixing and leaks. This cutaway shows a single-lever ceramic-disc faucet. Open the shell and separate the parts to see how the handle moves the discs and blends the water. ### Read the parts guide without using 3D ### Cartridge The cartridge is the replaceable valve inside the faucet. Moving the handle slides ceramic discs inside it, opening water passages and blending hot and cold water. Identify the faucet and inspect the cartridge and its seals. Use the correct service part, then test shutoff, mixing and leaks. ### Ceramic discs One ceramic disc stays fixed; the handle moves the other. As the holes in the discs overlap, they open a path for water. Smooth mating surfaces seal when the faucet is closed. Match the cartridge to the faucet model. Its water openings, seals and stem must line up with the body and handle. The worn cartridge usually comes out as one assembly. ### Seals & O-rings Seals keep the hot, cold and mixed-water passages separated and seal the cartridge to the faucet body. Other designs also have spout O-rings. Find the origin, match the seal or cartridge to the model, and check it under running-water pressure. ### Aerator The outlet insert shapes the stream. Its screens and flow-control passages can collect debris or mineral deposits. Inspect the outlet insert for trapped debris or scale, clean or replace it, then check that the stream has recovered. ### Supply lines Separate hot and cold connectors feed the cartridge. Their connections are pressurized even when the faucet handle is closed. Identify the leaking connection and check shutoff operation before disturbing it. Replace damaged connectors or valves as needed. ### Mounting & base The mounting shank, gasket and retaining hardware secure the faucet through the sink or counter. A loose faucet can strain its connections. Secure the mounting hardware against the underside of the sink or counter. Replace a damaged base seal and check the faucet body for cracks before reconnecting it. ### Drain & stopper The drain flange seals to the sink. The stopper opens and closes the drain; the tailpiece carries used water into the trap. Inspect the flange seal, stopper and drain assembly. Diagnose a slow drain separately from low faucet flow. ### P-trap Water held in the trap helps block sewer gas. Slip-joint washers seal the removable connections; the trap arm leads toward the wall drain. Check alignment, washers and pipe condition. Check farther along the branch for blockages that need cleaning. AT REAL SINKS.

Super helpful and informative. Communicated well and was punctual! Posted on Google Nathan Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler from Mountain Man Plumbing replaced my in-house main water shutoff valve and the pressure reducing valve (PRV) with a very practical new system that enables me to view the line pressure coming in and any drops in pressure easily. Very good looking workmanship. Prior to the work Tyler came out to my home and provided an estimate on the work, and stuck to the estimate. He's been easy to work with, cleaned up after himself, and also allowed me to change an appointment close to my originally planned estimate appointment over the phone. The website is also easy to use and efficient for scheduling an estimate. Thank you! Posted on Google Jeremy Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a great experience with Mountain Man Plumbing. Tyler showed up right on time, was professional, and got everything taken care of faster than expected—finishing the entire job in less than a day. He replaced our water heater, took care of the valves, and installed a new expansion tank, all with great attention to detail. Everything is working perfectly now, and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend Tyler and the team if you’re looking for reliable, efficient plumbing work! Posted on Google Dana Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler was very professional, polite and honest. Instead of trying to sell me new parts or a whole new water heater he showed me that some of the heating elements just needed cleaned. I would recommend this company for anyone looking for honest help to get the right fix without getting ripped off. Posted on Google Kyle Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Honest, thorough (caught a problem a couple people had missed), on time/reliable Posted on Google Barb Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Efficient, clean, and knowledgeable. Posted on Google Wendy Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler was great! Hard to find a plumber who preps for a service call like he did. He asked questions before he came over to fix a shower valve so he could make sure he had the right parts for the fixture so he was as efficient as possible when he got here. Communication was great prior to the service call and during. Fixed everything I needed in a couple of hours for a very reasonable price. Posted on Google Ellen Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service, fair pricing, quality work. I feel lucky to have found Tyler Nerdin at Mountain Man Plumbing! Posted on Google Karthik Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler was great. He kept his schedule and his work was flawless. Definitely knows his craft. Posted on Google Jon Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service. Tyler updated everything that had been missed with my old water heater, even unplugged my floor drain. Highly recommended. ``` [Read More Reviews →]() ## Questions Homeowners Ask About Our Faucet & Sink Repair Services Answers about faucet repairs, sink leaks and choosing the right parts. ### What counts as faucet and sink repair? We repair and replace faucets, supply hoses, shutoff valves, sink drains, stoppers, P-traps and garbage disposals. We also reconnect plumbing for a new sink and can discuss a supported drop-in or utility sink installation. Undermount bowl mounting and remounting go to a sink or countertop specialist. [Link to this answer]() ### Do you give pricing before starting faucet or sink work? Yes. Flat-rate pricing is the standard — you get the number, sign off, and the work starts. No mystery line items, no "while I'm under here" charges showing up at the end. [Link to this answer]() ### Can I text photos of my faucet or sink before booking? Yes. Send a full view of the faucet, the connections beneath the sink and the area where water appears. A brand or model marking helps us find matching parts before the visit. [Link to this answer]() ### Do you charge a service fee just to come look? Send photos and describe the problem so we can discuss the work and whether a visit is needed. We explain any diagnostic charge before scheduling. [Link to this answer]() ### How quickly can you come out for a faucet or sink repair? When the schedule allows, same-day or next-day is often possible. An actively dripping faucet, a leaking shutoff that won't close, or a sink that's leaking into the cabinet are the kinds of calls where a quick phone or text is the fastest way to find out what's available. [Link to this answer]() ### Can you fix a dripping or leaking faucet? Yes. Depending on the design, the cause may be a cartridge, valve seat, washer, seal or another damaged part. We identify the faucet and the leak before recommending a repair. A faucet with a cracked body or unavailable parts may need replacement. [Link to this answer]() ### Should I repair my faucet or just replace it? A sound faucet body with available parts is often worth repairing. Extensive corrosion, repeated failures or hard-to-find parts can make replacement more practical. We compare those options and check whether the manufacturer offers parts coverage. [Link to this answer]() ### Do you install customer-supplied faucets? Yes. Have the complete faucet, mounting kit and instructions ready. We check its fit with the sink holes, counter thickness and space below, then explain any connection changes needed. [Link to this answer]() ### Can you replace a kitchen or bathroom faucet? Yes. We check fit and access, remove the old faucet, mount the replacement according to its instructions, connect the supplies and test for leaks and proper operation. Supply-line, shutoff or drain repairs are discussed when needed so you know what the estimate includes. [Link to this answer]() ### Can you fix a garbage disposal? Yes. A jam, electrical or overload issue, drain blockage and a leaking unit need different solutions. Switch it off and disconnect power before any inspection; never put your hand inside. We identify the problem and explain whether repair or replacement makes sense. [Link to this answer]() ### How long should a garbage disposal last? Service life varies with the model, use, maintenance and what goes into it. Humming can mean a jam, while a leak can come from a mounting or drain connection rather than the disposal body. We check the cause and the condition before recommending replacement. [Link to this answer]() ### Can you replace a sink? We handle the water and drain connections for sink replacements and can discuss a supported drop-in or utility sink installation. Undermount mounting and remounting belong with a countertop or sink specialist. Send photos of the sink and cabinet so we can plan the plumbing work. [Link to this answer]() ### Do you repair or replace shutoff valves and angle stops under the sink? Yes. We inspect the valve and its connection to the supply pipe, then explain the repair or replacement needed. A quarter-turn replacement may be an option where it is compatible. Do not force a seized valve; if it will not close or starts leaking, ask for help isolating the water. [Link to this answer]() ### My faucet handle is hard to turn or feels gritty — can that be fixed? Often. Debris, mineral deposits, worn cartridge parts or handle hardware can cause stiffness. We identify the model and inspect the mechanism before deciding whether cleaning, the correct service part or a replacement fixture is appropriate. [Link to this answer]() ### Why does my faucet leak from the base of the spout? Depending on the faucet, the source can be a spout seal, cartridge, hose connection or damaged body. Water can run along the fixture before appearing at the base. We locate the source and match the repair parts to that faucet. [Link to this answer]() ### My sink sprayer doesn't work — is that fixable? Yes. Sprayers usually fail because of mineral buildup in the spray head, a kinked or cracked sprayer hose, or a failed diverter valve in the faucet body. The fix depends on which one. Mountain Man Plumbing diagnoses before pulling the sprayer apart. [Link to this answer]() ### Can you fix a leaking P-trap under my sink? Yes. We check the slip-joint washers, nuts, pipe alignment and condition of the trap and tailpiece. Some connections can be resealed; cracked or badly corroded parts need replacement. We test the repaired drain with water before finishing. [Link to this answer]() ### My sink is making gurgling noises when the other sink drains — what is that? Gurgling is a clue about air and water moving through the drain system. A partial blockage, a venting problem or the arrangement of connected fixtures can be involved. Tell us which fixtures are affected and whether drainage is slow or water backs up. [Link to this answer]() ### Do you work with insurance for sink leak claims? Mountain Man Plumbing can document the work and provide invoices, photos, and cause-of-loss notes for insurance claims (especially when a sink or supply line leak has caused cabinet damage), but doesn't bill insurance directly. You pay for the work and submit to your carrier for reimbursement where covered. [Link to this answer]() ### Do you offer second opinions on faucet or sink quotes? Yes. Send the estimate, fixture model and photos of the connections. We can explain the parts and work listed and compare a repair with replacement where both are practical. [Link to this answer]() ### What should I do before the plumber arrives for faucet or sink work? Clear the cabinet and have any faucet model information or replacement parts ready. Note whether it leaks with the tap off, while running, or only as the sink drains. Stop using a leaking fixture. Close its shutoffs only if they operate safely; do not force a stuck valve. Call if you cannot isolate an active leak. [Link to this answer]() ### Can you help if I do not know where my main water shutoff is? Yes. A lot of homeowners don't find theirs until water's already on the cabinet floor. Mountain Man Plumbing will identify your main shutoff, fixture stops, and anything else worth knowing before the next leak. [Link to this answer]() ### Are you licensed and insured in Utah? Yes. Mountain Man Plumbing's contractor license number is 12992295-5501. The license document is linked in the footer, and current status can be checked through Utah's Division of Professional Licensing. Ask us if you need insurance documentation for your project. [Link to this answer]() ### What areas do you service for faucet and sink repair?
