The faster you find and contain residential and commercial plumbing problems, the less likely you are to need more costly, time-consuming repair work in the future. This especially applies to faucet problems, which are often hinted at in subtle ways. Waialae Plumbing and Construction has been assisting residents and businesses in Honolulu since 1994, and their staff of expert plumbers will happily help you with plumbing jobs of all sizes. Before that, however, it helps to understand some of the common signs that may indicate serious faucet problems. 

Standard indicators include:  

• Low Water Pressure: One of the most telltale signs that you're dealing with faucet problems is low or inconsistent water pressure. A common culprit is a leaking pipe, so the first place to look would be to look outside. However, underground leaks are hard to locate. 
• Leaks: Leak detection isn't always as simple as noticing the all-too-familiar, grating drip of a leaky faucet. Even minor leaks that only dribble out a tiny amount of water will eventually snowball into something worse, so it's important to nip these in the bud as soon as possible. 
• Signs Of Rust: If you see rust on the outside of your faucet, it’s likely that it's also on the inside and already affecting the quality of your water. In the case of rust and other signs of wear and tear, it's usually time to have your faucet inspected and potentially replaced with a new unit.
