Faucet Repair
Faucet repair across the DMV. Serving DC, Maryland, and Virginia from Suitland, MD.
One drip per second is roughly three thousand gallons a year, paid for and sent straight down the drain. That is what a dripping faucet costs while it waits its turn on the to-do list.
We repair faucets across the DC metro with the correct parts for the specific faucet, which is the difference between a fix that lasts and one that is dripping again by summer.
Faucet problems we fix
Different faucet types fail differently: cartridges, ball assemblies, ceramic discs, washers. Knowing which is which, and stocking the right parts, is most of the battle.
- Drips from the spout that never quite stop
- Leaks around the base or under the handles
- Low or sputtering flow from a clogged aerator or cartridge
- Handles that grind, stick, or spin without effect
- Sprayers and pull-downs that lost pressure or stick open
What to expect on the day
We start the visit by asking questions. When did you first notice it, and is it one fixture or everything on that line? The answers usually point toward the cause and keep you from paying for a guess. After we have looked for ourselves, Brandon explains what he found in plain words, shows you where if he can, and gives you the price. Work begins only after you approve it. Before we leave, we test the repair and clean up, whether the job took twenty minutes or all day.
A licensed Master Plumber and a price you agree to before work begins: that is every visit, and we clean up before we go. Reach out with the details and we will get back to you, or call day or night. If you would like to see the work before you decide, our gallery has photos of jobs we have done.
Right part, not universal part
The universal repair kit is how a faucet gets fixed three times. Every brand and model has its own cartridge or valve design, and matching it exactly is what makes the repair permanent.
We identify the faucet, fit the correct part, and when a faucet is genuinely worn out, we say so and quote a replacement instead of selling you repairs on a lost cause.
- Exact-match parts for the brand and model
- Honest repair-or-replace call
- Fixed once, not three times
Why the DMV calls Jackson Plumbing
Plenty of companies in the Washington metro can send someone to clear a drain. Fewer can send a licensed Master Plumber. Brandon holds Master Plumber license PLM40000116, and he is the one who diagnoses your problem and does the work from start to finish. You get a straight explanation and a price before anything starts, from a plumber who knows the codes.
Customers describe Brandon as knowledgeable and professional, and one called him one of the best plumbers they had ever met. Those reviews come from nearly three decades of doing the job the same way: he listens first, explains what he finds, and recommends what you actually need rather than what costs the most. Much of our business is repeat work and referrals across DC, Maryland, and Virginia, and those reviews explain why.
A lot of plumbing work needs a permit, and a permit needs a properly licensed plumber behind it. Jackson Plumbing is a licensed Master Plumber, license PLM40000116, with Maryland license 109495, Virginia license 2710083375, and WSSC credential P-83640, plus ASSE certification and a BBB A-rating. So when your job calls for a permit and an inspection, we handle both correctly, and the work holds up for years after the inspector leaves.
It also means we stand behind what we do. If something we installed or repaired ever acts up, you call us and we come back, because our reputation across the DMV is worth more than any single invoice. That is the difference between a plumber who is here today and one who is building a name he intends to keep. We would rather do one job right and earn a customer for the next twenty years than rush through three and lose all of them.
Honest pricing, no hidden fees
A plumbing bill stings most when the problem hit at a bad hour and you had no time to shop around. Some companies count on that. We price a burst pipe at two in the morning the same honest way we price a scheduled repair: Brandon looks at it, tells you what it needs, gives you the number, and waits for your okay before he starts. You are not signing a blank check because there is water on the floor. If shutting off the water buys you time to think it over until morning, we will tell you that too. The price you approve is the price on the invoice. Call (202) 840-1998 any hour, or send us a message if it can wait, and Brandon will get right back to you.

Is a dripping faucet really worth a service call?
Run the math: thousands of gallons a year, plus the stain it is etching into your sink. The repair usually pays for itself on the water bill alone, and your sanity is a bonus.
Why is water coming out around the handle?
A worn cartridge or O-ring is letting water past its seal. It will not improve on its own, and the water is often working into places you cannot see. A quick repair now beats a swollen cabinet later.
My water pressure dropped at one faucet only. Why?
Usually a clogged aerator or debris in the cartridge, common after any water main work in your area. It is one of the quickest fixes we do.
Repair or replace the faucet?
A quality faucet with a worn cartridge deserves the repair. A budget faucet with corroded internals or a discontinued design is usually smarter to replace. We tell you which yours is before any work starts.
Do you carry parts on the truck?
We stock parts for the common brands and configurations, so most repairs finish in one visit. If your faucet needs something exotic, we source the exact match rather than force a universal part.
Need a plumber you can trust?
Nearly three decades in the trade, and the bill matches the quote. Give us a call, day or night.
