Kitchen Faucet Repair & Replacement in Bowie, MD
Drips at the spout, a sprayer that leaks or won’t retract, a stiff handle or a touchless faucet that stopped working — call to get connected with a plumbing provider serving Bowie kitchens.
- Pull-down & pull-out
- Single- & two-handle
- Touchless & smart faucets
Short answer: kitchen faucets get the hardest use in the house. The most common repairs are cartridge replacement, spout O-rings, sprayer hoses and heads, and clogged aerators. When the faucet body or pull-down hose system is worn out, replacement is often the better fix.
Kitchen faucet types we connect you for
Pull-down faucets
Spray head pulls down into the sink. Common issues: leaking hose connection, worn spray head, head that won’t dock, hose that won’t retract.
Pull-out faucets
Spray wand pulls straight out toward you. Similar hose and head problems, plus weak spray from a clogged face.
Single-handle faucets
One lever for volume and temperature. Drips, stiffness and temperature drift usually trace back to the cartridge.
Two-handle faucets
Separate hot and cold. A drip on one side points to that side’s stem, washer or cartridge. Side sprayers use a diverter that can stick.
Touchless & smart faucets
Sensor-operated faucets add batteries or power, a solenoid valve and a control box to the usual parts. Troubleshooting is brand-specific.
Leaks at the swivel
Water around the base of a swiveling spout usually means worn spout O-rings — a common repair on older kitchen faucets.
Replacing a kitchen faucet
What to check before a new one goes in
- How many holes your sink or counter has, and whether a side sprayer or soap dispenser uses one
- Spout height against the window sill or upper cabinets
- Room under the sink for the pull-down hose and weight, especially next to a garbage disposal
- Condition of the shut-off valves and supply lines
More detail is on the faucet replacement checklist.
Helpful to have when you call
- Brand and model, if you know it
- A photo of the faucet and under the sink

Kitchen faucet questions
Why won’t my pull-down sprayer retract?
The weight clipped to the hose under the sink may have slipped, or the hose is catching on items in the cabinet. If the hose is kinked or worn, it may need replacing.
Why does water leak from under the spout when I use the sprayer?
On pull-down and pull-out faucets, the hose connection or the O-rings inside the spout can wear. It often shows up as water in the cabinet only when the faucet is running.
My touchless faucet stopped responding. Is it broken?
Check the batteries or power adapter first. If it still doesn’t respond, the sensor, solenoid valve or control box may need attention, and those parts are specific to the brand.
Can a two-handle kitchen faucet be converted to single-handle?
Yes, if the sink holes allow it. A single-handle faucet with a deck plate can cover a three-hole sink; the provider can confirm what fits.
