Common Kitchen & Bathroom Sink Problems
Fixtures that are used daily tend to develop a variety of recurring problems. Recognizing these early can help keep things running smoothly.
Common issues include:
- Dripping faucet. This is the most frequent issue. Over time, the internal seals or cartridges that regulate water flow wear down, allowing water to leak through.
- Low water pressure (in one faucet). If water pressure is strong throughout the house but weak at a single sink, the likely cause is a clogged aerator. This small screen at the faucet’s tip often gets blocked by mineral deposits from hard water.
- Leaking under the sink. A puddle in the cabinet below the sink usually points to a leak in the P-trap (the curved drainpipe) or a corroded or loose water supply line.
- Slow sink drain. In kitchens, this typically results from a gradual buildup of grease, soap, and food particles. In bathrooms, the clog is usually caused by hair and soap scum.
- Garbage disposal failure. You might hear a humming sound without grinding, or notice that the unit is clogged, leaking, or completely unresponsive.
These problems are common in frequently used fixtures and addressing them promptly can help avoid bigger headaches down the line.

Why Bradenton's Hard Water Clogs Your Faucet Aerator
If your faucet has low pressure or the water sprays in multiple directions, the issue is likely a clogged aerator. This small mesh screen, located at the very tip of the faucet, plays a crucial role in controlling water flow. As hard water moves through the faucet, tiny particles of calcium and magnesium can collect in the mesh. Over time, this buildup, known as scale, blocks the aerator and reduces water pressure.
Fortunately, this is often a simple fix. Start by unscrewing the aerator from the faucet. You may need pliers and a cloth to get a good grip without damaging the finish. Place the aerator in a small cup of white vinegar and let it soak for about an hour. The vinegar helps break down the mineral deposits.
After soaking, use an old toothbrush to scrub away any remaining buildup. Rinse the aerator thoroughly, then screw it back onto the faucet. This process often restores normal water pressure and improves the flow.
