Faucet, Spigot & Valve Repair

One Service for Faucets, Outdoor Spigots, and Water Shut-Off Valves

A dripping kitchen faucet, an outdoor spigot damaged by freezing, and a main water valve that will not close are different symptoms, but they share the same need: identify the failed component, confirm the condition of the connected piping, and repair or replace only what is necessary. SOS Home Services provides faucet, spigot, and water shut-off valve work across Prior Lake and the Twin Cities.

Faucet Repair and Replacement

• Kitchen and bathroom faucets — dripping spouts, leaking bases, loose handles, weak flow, and worn internal parts
• Cartridges, washers, O-rings, seats, and seals — replaced when the faucet body remains serviceable
• Pull-down and pull-out faucets — spray-head, hose, and diverter problems
• Fixture replacement — when parts are unavailable, the body is corroded, or repeated repairs no longer make sense
• Supply connections and fixture shutoffs — checked when water is reaching the cabinet or the leak is not coming from the faucet itself

We service major fixture brands already represented on the site, including Moen, Kohler, and Delta. The condition of the faucet and availability of the correct parts determine whether repair or replacement is the better value.

Outdoor Spigot and Hose Bib Repair

Outdoor faucets may also be called spigots, hose bibs, or sillcocks. We diagnose dripping outlets, damaged washers and vacuum breakers, stuck valves, cracked bodies, and supply-line leaks revealed after a Minnesota freeze. When a standard spigot or damaged line is no longer a reliable repair, a correctly installed frost-free sillcock may be the appropriate replacement.

If water is appearing inside near the spigot line, shut off the dedicated branch valve if it can be operated safely. If the source cannot be isolated, use the home's main water shutoff and call for help.

Main Water and Branch Shut-Off Valve Work

• Main water shut-off valves — valves that are seized, leak at the stem, turn without stopping flow, or cannot be trusted in an emergency
• Fixture and branch shutoffs — worn, stuck, leaking, or corroded valves and related supply connections
• Gate-to-ball valve replacement — a durable option when an older gate valve has failed internally or is no longer dependable
• Testing before replacement — a stiff valve or packing leak may be repairable; a damaged internal gate usually requires replacement

Do not force a seized main valve. Excessive force can break the stem and leave the home without a usable interior shutoff. We inspect the valve, connected pipe material, and isolation options before recommending the work.

Repair or Replace?

Repair is usually the practical choice when the body is sound, the correct part is available, and one serviceable component has failed. Replacement becomes more sensible when the fixture or valve is corroded, cracked, obsolete, repeatedly failing, or unable to stop water reliably. You receive the findings, options, and price before work begins.

Minnesota Freeze Protection for Outdoor Faucets

Disconnect hoses before the first hard freeze. A hose left attached can prevent even a frost-free spigot from draining and can trap water where it freezes. Standard spigots should be isolated and drained when the home has a working interior shutoff for that branch. If a spigot shows reduced flow, leaking, or moisture inside after winter, have it checked before regular use.
