Faucet Keeps Dripping in Pasadena

A faucet that keeps dripping is a household leak and may waste water over time. Use the observations below to decide whether to monitor it briefly or contact a plumbing professional.

What a dripping faucet may indicate

The faucet itself or another leaking valve may be contributing to the drip. The symptom alone does not identify the exact cause, so avoid taking apart the fixture or treating a temporary change as a confirmed repair.

Safe checks you can make

Make sure the handle is fully turned off, then note whether the water comes from the spout, around the handle, or beneath the sink. Look only at safely accessible areas for visible moisture. You can also check the water meter before and after a two-hour period when no water is being used; a change may indicate that a leak is present.

When to contact a plumbing professional

Contact a plumbing professional if the drip continues, water appears around the fixture or supply area, the meter changes during the no-use check, or simple fixture fixes have not stopped the leak. A professional can inspect the plumbing without requiring you to dismantle the faucet or work on the water system yourself.
