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

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 Clovis, NM.
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.
Moen, Delta, Kohler, Price Pfister, American Standard, Grohe, Hansgrohe โ each brand uses proprietary cartridge and valve designs that are not interchangeable. Moen uses their own 1200 and 1225 cartridge system; Delta uses ball valves in older fixtures and cartridges in newer ones; Kohler uses Rite-Temp pressure-balance cartridges in shower valves.
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.
Not every under-sink leak is the faucet itself โ many are supply line connections, P-trap slip joints, garbage disposal collars, or drain body gaskets. Our techs trace the water source precisely before recommending a faucet repair or replacement.
Here's the full range of faucet repair work our techs handle in Clovis, NM โ by fixture type and by symptom.
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 Clovis, NM 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.
Shower pressure-balance valves keep the water temperature stable when someone flushes a toilet or runs a dishwasher. When the cartridge wears, you lose that temperature compensation โ hot and cold water temperatures swing unpredictably during the shower. We replace pressure-balance cartridges for Moen, Delta, Kohler, and other common brands found in Clovis, NM homes.
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.
Here's exactly how a Masters Plumbing Service faucet repair call runs in Clovis, NM.
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.
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.
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.
We also confirm the angle stop valves under the sink operate โ a seized stop valve that can't shut off in a future emergency is a problem worth noting while we're already under the cabinet.

Single-handle Moen bathroom faucet dripping at the spout. Tech pulled the cartridge โ an old 1200 design that was heavily scaled โ swapped in a new Moen cartridge, adjusted the flow limiter, and the faucet has been silent for three months. Clean work, fast, reasonably priced.
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.
Full bathroom faucet replacement โ my old two-handle fixture was discontinued and no cartridges were available. Masters Plumbing Service supplied a quality Moen single-handle faucet in the same 4-inch centerset configuration, removed the old fixture, replaced the supply lines with braided steel, and installed the new unit. Clean, level installation. Also replaced both angle stop valves under the sink since the originals were 20 years old and barely turned.
