    Troubleshooting Bathroom Faucet Issues

    Over time, bathroom faucets can develop issues, but you can address them yourself. Leaks, drips, and low water flow are common problems. Dripping is rhythmic water flow even after closing the faucet, often caused by a dirty aerator. Cleaning or soaking the aerator can solve this. Constant dripping suggests a cartridge problem. Replace ceramic cartridges or springs and washers with washerless cartridges. Leaks can cause damage, so visually inspect and feel for moisture to locate the source. Perform a test with shut-off valves to pinpoint the leak. Low water flow may be due to a clogged aerator or blockage in the cartridge. Clean or replace the aerator and consult the manufacturer for cartridge replacement. Consider faucet replacement if necessary.

This brownish-black finish, resembling aged bronze, is achieved through chemical treatments, resulting in a slightly slick surface that lends the finish its name.

    Oil-rubbed bronze is commonly found in traditional decor styles like Tuscan farmhouse, vintage Victorian, and Craftsman designs from the turn of the century. It also complements Prairie and traditional Southwestern architecture. The deep hues and shiny surface of oil-rubbed bronze pair beautifully with lush gold, sage green, or terra cotta tones, as well as light-colored marble and rich woods. Additionally, it can serve as a striking contrast to cool neutrals and other metal finishes when you want to make a bold statement.
