Fix What Is Not Working Right

Capital Plumbing repairs sinks, drains, leaky pipes, and faucets to restore normal function.

When a sink drains slowly, a faucet drips constantly, or a pipe starts leaking under the cabinet, you need someone who can identify the problem and fix it without tearing apart your plumbing system. Capital Plumbing handles common plumbing repairs so you can get back to using your fixtures without worrying about worsening damage or recurring issues.

We repair drains that back up or drain slowly, stop leaks in pipes and faucets, and fix sinks that are not functioning properly. The work typically involves inspecting the affected area, identifying the cause of the issue, and replacing or adjusting the faulty component. For leaks, this may mean tightening connections, replacing worn washers or seals, or cutting out and replacing a damaged section of pipe. For slow drains, we clear blockages using appropriate tools and check for venting or slope issues that may be contributing to poor drainage.

If you are dealing with a plumbing issue that is affecting daily use, reach out to Capital Plumbing to schedule a repair visit.

What repair work looks like in practice

When we arrive to handle a plumbing repair, we start by asking when the issue started and what you have noticed. We inspect the fixture or pipe in question, check surrounding areas for hidden leaks or damage, and test water flow to see how the system is performing. For a leaky pipe, we locate the source of the leak and determine whether a fitting needs tightening or a section of pipe needs replacement.

After the repair, you will notice that the leak has stopped completely, water pressure has returned to normal, and drains clear without standing water or slow movement. The area around the repair stays dry, and fixtures operate quietly without rattling or hissing.

We use replacement parts that match the existing plumbing in material and size to ensure a secure fit. If a repair requires accessing pipes inside a wall or under a floor, we cut only what is necessary and provide guidance on coordinating any drywall or flooring repairs with other contractors. This service focuses on restoring function to existing plumbing and does not include rerouting lines or upgrading entire systems.

Answers that help before you call

Before scheduling a repair, most people want to know what is causing the problem and what the repair process will involve.

What causes a faucet to drip after it is turned off?
A dripping faucet usually has a worn washer, O-ring, or cartridge inside the handle assembly. Replacing the damaged part stops the drip and restores a tight seal when the faucet is off.
How do you clear a slow drain without damaging pipes?
We use a drain snake or auger to break up clogs and pull out debris without harsh chemicals that can corrode pipes. If the blockage is deeper, we may access the drain through a cleanout or remove the trap to clear it manually.
Why does my sink leak only when the water is running?
Leaks that occur only during use often come from loose supply line connections, a cracked tailpiece, or a worn gasket around the basket strainer. We tighten or replace the faulty component to stop the leak.
When should I replace a pipe instead of repairing it?
You should replace a section of pipe if it shows corrosion, multiple leaks, or cracks that indicate material failure. A single pinhole leak in otherwise sound pipe can usually be repaired with a coupling or patch.
What should I do if a pipe starts leaking suddenly?
Turn off the water supply to that fixture or the main shutoff if you cannot isolate it. Place a bucket under the leak to catch water and contact Capital Plumbing so we can assess and repair the pipe before it causes further damage.
