A dripping faucet at one drip per second wastes over 3,000 gallons per year. Past the water cost, the drip often signals a worn cartridge or deteriorated seat-and-spring assembly that will worsen over time — eventually leaking continuously or becoming stiff and difficult to operate. Masters Plumbing Service's faucet techs in Custer, SD identify the specific valve type in your fixture, source the correct replacement cartridge or repair kit, and restore full, drip-free operation in a single visit.

Our Qualifications

What We Bring to Every Faucet Repair Call in Custer, SD

We identify the valve type, source the correct OEM or quality aftermarket replacement, and restore the faucet to full operation — no leaks at the spout, no stiff handle, no drip.

🔩

Valve-Type Specific Expertise

Ceramic disc faucets from brands like Moen's newer series, American Standard, and European brands use a pair of ceramic discs that rarely fail but can crack from thermal shock (sudden cold water on a hot disc). Our techs carry common disc cartridge replacements for major brands.

🏷️

Brand Knowledge Across Major Lines

We identify the brand and model from the fixture, source the correct OEM or high-quality aftermarket cartridge, and install it correctly. Using the wrong cartridge on a pressure-balance shower valve doesn't just drip — it can cause scalding or cold-water bypass.

🚿

Shower & Tub Valve Specialists

Shower valves — particularly pressure-balance and thermostatic mixing valves — are more complex than a kitchen sink faucet and have safety implications if repaired incorrectly. We carry cartridges for the major pressure-balance valve brands common in Custer, SD homes and understand the anti-scald setpoint calibration that should be verified after any shower valve cartridge replacement.

💧

Under-Sink Leak Diagnosis

Not every under-sink leak is the faucet itself — many are supply line connections, P-trap slip joints, garbage disposal collars, or drain body gaskets. Our techs trace the water source precisely before recommending a faucet repair or replacement.

Our Faucet Services

From Kitchen to Shower — Faucet Repair Across Your Home

Most faucet repairs complete in a single visit with parts on the truck.

Kitchen

Kitchen Faucet Repair & Replacement

Kitchen faucet issues typically present as: a dripping spout (worn cartridge or ball assembly), a leak at the base (failed O-ring at the faucet body), stiff or jerky handle movement (mineral deposits or corroded cartridge tracks), or reduced flow (clogged aerator or partially closed supply valve). We diagnose the cause, repair the specific component, and test for full leak-free operation.

Bathroom

Bathroom Sink Faucet Repair

Single-handle bathroom faucets use cartridge valves — one cartridge controls both hot/cold mixing and volume. When the cartridge wears, the result is a drip that typically starts slowly and worsens over months. We identify the cartridge model by the faucet brand and replace it with the correct OEM cartridge.

Shower

Shower Valve Cartridge Replacement

After cartridge replacement, we verify anti-scald calibration — the maximum hot water limit set by the cartridge rotational stop — to confirm the valve won't deliver scalding water at full hot even if a supply pressure event occurs.

Outdoor

Outdoor Spigot & Hose Bibb Repair

Outdoor hose bibbs fail in two ways: a dripping spout (worn stem packing or seat washer) or a leak at the packing nut behind the handle (deteriorated packing material around the stem). Most hose bibb repairs involve replacing the seat washer and packing without removing the body from the wall.

Low Flow

Aerator Cleaning & Flow Restoration

Reduced flow at a kitchen or bathroom faucet is almost always a clogged aerator — the small screen-and-flow-restrictor assembly at the tip of the spout. Mineral scale from hard water accumulates in the aerator mesh over time, progressively reducing flow to a trickle. Aerator cleaning or replacement restores full rated flow in minutes.

Replacement

Full Faucet Replacement

We handle the full installation: shut the supply, disconnect the old faucet, inspect the supply lines and angle stop valves, install the new faucet, connect supply, adjust the aerator, and verify drip-free operation before leaving.

Our Process

From Dripping Faucet to Fixed — 4 Clean Steps

We identify the valve type before ordering or installing any part. The right cartridge for your faucet brand is what produces a lasting result — not a generic part that fits loosely.

Call & Describe Your Faucet Symptom

Drip at the spout? Leak at the base? Stiff handle? Low flow? Knowing the symptom and, if possible, the faucet brand lets us arrive with the most likely replacement parts already stocked on the truck.

Valve Type Identification & Diagnosis

For many major-brand cartridges — Moen 1225, Delta RP46074, Kohler GP30413 — the part is on the truck and the repair proceeds immediately.

Flat-Rate Quote & Repair Execution

You receive a flat-rate quote covering parts and labor before the water is shut off under the sink. Common repairs — cartridge replacement, ball assembly rebuild, aerator service — are straight-forward pricing with no variable labor component.

Verify Zero Drip Before Leaving

We also confirm the angle stop valves under the sink operate — a seized stop valve that can't shut off in a future emergency is a problem worth noting while we're already under the cabinet.

Customer Reviews

Real Faucet Repair Reviews from Custer, SD

★★★★★

My kitchen faucet had been dripping for two years — I kept putting it off. Masters Plumbing Service's tech identified it as a Delta ball-type faucet and had the complete repair kit on his truck: new ball, springs, seats, and O-rings. The whole rebuild took 40 minutes. The faucet moves smoothly now and there's absolutely no drip. I only wish I'd called sooner given how much water I was wasting.

— K. Svensson, Custer

★★★★★

Had a hose bibb that dripped at the packing nut all summer. Tech replaced the packing material and seat washer in 20 minutes. Also told me the freeze-proof stem length was correct for my wall depth, which was reassuring heading into winter.

— P. & G. Delacroix, Custer, SD

★★★★★

Low flow in the master bath — I assumed the pressure regulator was failing. Tech cleaned the aerator (heavily scaled), and flow went from a trickle to full pressure immediately. 10-minute fix, saved me from chasing a pressure problem that didn't exist.

Common Questions

Faucet Questions We Answer Every Day in Custer

The more important issue: a drip that starts slow almost never stays at one drip per second. The cartridge or seat washer continues to deteriorate, worsening the leak until it's a steady stream or a handle that no longer shuts off at all.

Replacement becomes the right answer when: the fixture body is corroded at the mounting surface or supply ports; the faucet is discontinued with no available replacement cartridge; or the fixture is very old and the homeowner wants to update to a water-efficient or different-style model.

Temperature swings during a shower — particularly when another fixture is used elsewhere in the house — indicate a failing pressure-balance cartridge. The cartridge's job is to compensate for supply pressure changes caused by other fixtures drawing hot or cold water, keeping shower temperature stable. When the cartridge wears, it loses this compensation ability and temperature follows the pressure fluctuation.

If the stiffness is in a ball-type faucet, the cam and packing assembly may be binding — a rebuild kit with new cam, packing, and springs typically resolves it. We assess which type you have and quote accordingly.

Cartridge faucets use a replaceable ceramic or plastic cartridge that slides in and out of the valve body — repair means pulling the old cartridge and installing the new one in the correct orientation. Ball faucets use a rotating stainless-steel or brass ball with ports that align with supply inlets — repair means a rebuild kit with new ball (if scored), springs, seats, and O-rings installed into the cleaned valve body.

These estimates assume the shut-off valves under the sink operate correctly. Corroded angle stop valves that need replacement before work can begin add 20–30 minutes. We tell you upfront if the stop valves are a concern.
