Faucets and Fixtures Questions from Matthews
Do not force it. Older valves can seize, and forcing one can break it and start a leak. Shut off the main water if you need to stop a leak now. We can replace the stuck valve with a new one that turns easily, so you can shut off that fixture when you need to.
Call us and describe what you are seeing, where it is in the house and when it started. We will explain what the first visit involves and find a time that works. Before any work starts at your Matthews home, you get a clear plan and an estimate.
