Determining when to replace a faucet is key to maintaining a functional and aesthetically pleasing home. Here are some signs that it might be time to consider a new faucet:

​

• Persistent Dripping: If your faucet continues to drip after repairs, it could be a sign that internal components are worn out beyond repair, indicating replacement is necessary.

• Rust or Corrosion: Visible rust or corrosion on your faucet not only affects water quality but also indicates that the faucet's integrity is compromised, making replacement the best option.

• Reduced Water Pressure: A significant decrease in water pressure from your faucet could suggest a buildup of mineral deposits within the faucet body, which can be difficult to clean and may require a new faucet.

• Frequent Repairs: If you find yourself constantly fixing your faucet, the costs and inconvenience can quickly add up. Investing in a new faucet might be more economical in the long run.

• Outdated Design: Your faucet may function well, but if it no longer fits your bathroom or kitchen's aesthetic, updating to a new model can refresh the space.

• Leaks Around the Base: Water pooling around the base of your faucet or under the sink can indicate failed seals or gaskets, which sometimes means a new faucet is the most effective solution.

• Difficulty Turning Handles: If the handles of your faucet are hard to turn or don’t work smoothly, the internal components may be failing, suggesting it's time for a replacement.

• Water Damage: Signs of water damage, such as staining or mold around the faucet area, can indicate leaks that have gone unaddressed for too long, necessitating a new faucet to prevent further damage.
