Frequently Asked Questions About House Spigot Repair & Installation

Why does my outdoor spigot keep dripping?

Common causes include a worn washer, cartridge, packing, valve seat, or excessive pressure.

Can a frozen spigot leak inside the wall?

Yes. The fixture or connected pipe can split and leak when water is turned on.

Should I replace or repair the spigot?

A sound body may be repairable. Cracks, corrosion, repeated leakage, or poor design may justify replacement.

What is a frost-proof spigot?

It closes farther inside the heated structure and drains the exterior section when installed correctly.

Should I disconnect the hose in winter?

Yes. A connected hose can trap water and increase freeze risk.

Can you install a new outdoor faucet?

The current page says new installation is offered. Confirm routing, access, and backflow requirements.

Why is the flow weak?

Debris, a partially closed valve, freeze damage, supply restriction, or broader pressure problem may be involved.

Is a leaking spigot urgent?

A small exterior drip should be repaired, while water inside the wall or crawlspace requires prompt action.
