Trusted Local Plumbers Serving Albuquerque, Rio Rancho and Surrounding Areas

Water leaks in your home can start small and turn into expensive damage if ignored. At Central Plumbing Heating & Cooling, we provide professional faucet repair, fixture replacement, and leak detection services for homeowners across Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Corrales, Bernalillo and Placitas.

From slow drips to active leaks behind walls or under sinks, our licensed plumbers are trained to locate the source of the problem and fix it correctly the first time.

Dealing With a Water Leak? Don’t Wait

That constant drip from a faucet isn’t just annoying—it wastes water and can lead to damaged cabinets, flooring, drywall, and even structural issues. What starts as a minor leak can quietly cause thousands of dollars in repairs if left alone.

Our plumbers respond quickly, diagnose the issue accurately, and make durable repairs to stop the leak before it causes further damage.

Bathroom Faucet Repair & Replacement

Bathroom faucets see daily use and are exposed to hard water minerals common in New Mexico. Over time, this leads to leaks, stiff handles, reduced water flow, and corrosion.

We repair and replace:

• Leaking bathroom faucets

• Worn cartridges and seals

• Loose or damaged handles

• Outdated or inefficient fixtures

If replacement makes more sense than repair, we can install modern, water-efficient faucets that fit your existing plumbing without unnecessary modifications.

Kitchen Faucet Repair & Installation

Your kitchen faucet is one of the most used fixtures in your home. Constant use, frequent cleaning, and hard water buildup all contribute to wear and failure over time.

Central Plumbing Heating & Cooling provides expert kitchen faucet services, including:

• Leak repair at the base or handle

• Sprayer and pull-down hose issues

• Low water pressure problems

• Full faucet replacements and upgrades

We help you select a faucet that works with your current plumbing and install it correctly so it performs reliably for years.

Shower Faucet & Fixture Repair

Leaky shower faucets, broken handles, and inconsistent water temperature are often signs of deeper valve issues behind the wall. Shower repairs are not always as simple as swapping out a handle, and mismatched parts can turn a small project into a major one.

Our plumbers handle:

• Shower faucet leaks

• Broken or stripped handles

• Low water pressure

• Shower valve repairs and replacements

If a valve replacement is required, we have the experience to open the wall cleanly, replace the valve properly, and ensure everything functions safely and smoothly.

Why Faucet Repairs Can Be More Complicated Than They Look

Plumbing fixtures come in many styles, sizes, and configurations. In many cases, repairs require specific cartridges, seals, or fittings to function correctly. Installing the wrong part can lead to continued leaks or internal damage.

Hiring a professional plumber saves time, prevents mistakes, and ensures your fixtures operate as intended.

Common Causes of Leaky Faucets

Some of the most common reasons we see faucet leaks include:

Worn Cartridges or Seals
Over time, internal components wear out from normal use and hard water exposure.

Damaged Internal Parts
A slow drip left unrepaired can damage brass components, leading to more extensive repairs.

High Water Pressure
Excessive water pressure puts added stress on faucets, causing premature failure of cartridges and seals.

Addressing these issues early helps extend the life of your fixtures and reduces water waste.
