Free to homeowners in Alabama — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

Repair or replace

Our faucet repair coverage in Alabama runs to 398 ZIP codes in 243 cities. Across a state with both large cities and small townships the fittings vary as much as the housing does, and the fastest way to the right part is still the maker and model stamped on the tap rather than the age of the house.

What this site is

FaucetMend is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. We carry out no work, we sell no fixtures, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call. Nothing here is a statement about the water at any address; only a test of that water can tell you about it.

Checking a credential in Alabama

Alabama licenses are issued by the Alabama Plumbers and Gas Fitters Examining Board, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins.

What that coverage looks like

We cover 243 Alabama cities, of which Birmingham is the largest at 62 ZIP codes. A tap repair is a short visit, so the practical question across a footprint this wide is not whether a contractor covers your ZIP code but how soon one can be there — which is why the call asks for the ZIP first.

How a faucet repair job goes

Most calls about a dripping tap end in a part, not a tap. A cartridge, a ceramic disc, a seat and spring or an O-ring will fix the great majority of drips, and the part is identified from the maker and model rather than from the symptom. A tap is replaced when the body itself is worn or the fixing is seized, which is a much smaller share of calls than the hardware aisle suggests.

What the call asks about faucet repair

  • Whether it drips from the spout or from the base, which points at two different parts.
  • One handle or two, and whether the handle is a lever, a cross or a knob.
  • The maker and model if it is on the tap, because that is what identifies the cartridge.

Every Alabama city we route in

91 cities, ordered by the share of homes built before 2010. Tap and valve stock follows the age of the housing it was fitted into. Each page carries that city’s own numbers and the ZIP codes we route there.

Before you call

Most dripping taps are a seat, a cartridge or a washer and not a new tap. The pages above say how to tell which, before anyone is called.
