A dripping faucet might seem like a minor annoyance, but it adds up fast – both in wasted water and in wear on the faucet’s internal components. In Erlanger, Florence, and across Northern Kentucky, faucets tend to wear out faster than homeowners in other markets expect. The reason is straightforward: NKY’s limestone aquifer delivers some of the hardest water in the tri-state region, and that mineral content quietly builds up on faucet cartridges, valve seats, and aerators over time. What starts as a slow drip can become a full-blown faucet leak, and eventually a replacement, sooner than it should.
Arlinghaus provides professional faucet repair and replacement for homeowners throughout Erlanger, Florence, Covington, Independence, and all of Northern Kentucky. Whether it’s a dripping kitchen faucet, a leaky shower faucet, a worn bathtub faucet, or a cracked outdoor hose bib, our licensed plumbers diagnose it accurately and fix it right the first time.

Most faucet problems look straightforward on the surface, but the right fix depends on what’s actually causing the leak, and that’s not always easy to determine without opening the faucet up. Here are the situations where a licensed plumber is the right call:

Arlinghaus handles faucet repair and replacement throughout Erlanger, Florence, and Northern Kentucky for every faucet type in the home:
Kitchen faucets take more daily use than almost any other fixture in the home. Dripping kitchen faucets, low water pressure at the sink, pull-down sprayer failures, and leaks at the faucet base are all common calls we handle throughout Erlanger and Florence. We repair single-handle and two-handle kitchen faucets of all major brands, and when repair isn’t cost-effective, we handle full kitchen faucet replacement including supply line connections and shut-off valve work.
Bathroom faucet repair covers everything from a dripping faucet at the vanity to leaks around the base, handling stiffness from mineral buildup, and low water pressure at the sink. NKY’s hard water is particularly tough on bathroom faucet cartridges; the calcium and magnesium deposits that build up inside them over time are a leading cause of bathroom faucet leaks in this area. When a cartridge replacement resolves the issue, that’s what we recommend. When the faucet itself is too far gone, we handle the full replacement.
A leaky shower faucet that drips even when the handle is off is almost always a cartridge or valve seat issue. Arlinghaus handles shower faucet repair for all handle styles, single-handle, two-handle, and wall-mount, throughout NKY homes. We also handle shower faucet replacement when an aging valve or incompatible parts make repair impractical. If your shower pressure has dropped or temperature control has become inconsistent, those are signs worth having a licensed plumber evaluate.
Bathtub faucets and tub spouts have their own set of common failure points: diverters that stop sending water to the showerhead, spouts that drip when the shower is running, and handles that have become stiff or won’t fully shut off. Arlinghaus handles bathtub faucet repair and full tub faucet replacement for homes throughout Erlanger, Florence, and Northern Kentucky, including the supply line and connection work behind the wall when a full swap is needed.
Outdoor faucets and hose bibs in NKY take a beating every winter. Erlanger and the surrounding area average 30 or more freeze days per year, and outdoor faucets that weren’t properly winterized, or older faucets where the internal valve has degraded, are vulnerable to cracking and splitting when water inside them freezes. Spring is our busiest season for outdoor faucet repair and hose bib replacement calls across Boone, Campbell, and Kenton counties. We also install frost-free outdoor faucets designed to handle NKY’s freeze-thaw cycles with far less risk of damage.
When it comes to faucet repair and replacement, the difference between a lasting fix and a repeat service call comes down to accurate diagnosis and understanding the local conditions that cause faucets to fail in the first place:
