Before you sign
What to ask a Lubbock contractor first
- 01
Is rebuilding the existing faucet sensible, or has the body and finish deteriorated enough that a replacement lasts longer?
- 02
Will the shut-off valves under the cabinet be tested first, because seized stops often force extra work before any repair?
- 03
If a homeowner-supplied faucet is used, who carries responsibility for missing parts, poor castings or a later warranty claim?
Before anyone touches a pipe
Verify the licence. It takes two minutes.
- Who licenses the work: Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners (TSBPE).
- Who pulls the permit: the licensed contractor, never the homeowner.
- What to ask for: the licence number, the registered name behind it, and an insurance certificate issued to the property address.
Answers first
Faucet & Sink in Lubbock — common questions
Is a dripping faucet actually worth fixing?
Yes — a steady drip wastes a meaningful volume over a year, and the same worn seat that drips is usually also scoring the valve body. Catching it early keeps it a cartridge replacement instead of a fixture replacement.
Why is water pressure low at only one faucet?
A single fixture usually means a clogged aerator or a partially closed or failing angle stop, not a house-wide pressure problem. Aerator cleaning is the first thing to rule out.
Can I supply my own faucet?
Many contractors will install an owner-supplied fixture but will not warrant the fixture itself. Ask how it affects the labour warranty before buying.
Do I need a permit for plumbing work in Lubbock?
Permit requirements around Lubbock are set locally rather than statewide. As a rule, water heater replacement, gas work, sewer laterals and repiping are permitted work, while a like-for-like faucet or disposal swap usually is not. A licensed contractor pulls the permit — if one offers to skip it, that is the signal to stop.
What warranty applies to the work?
Whatever the contractor offers in writing — PlumberTexas is not a party to the agreement. Ask for labour and parts warranty terms in the quote, and keep the licence number with the paperwork.
How does the callback request work?
The 30-second form asks for a name, ZIP and the number to reach you on. The request routes to an independent licensed professional covering that area, and they call you back. Consent for marketing contact is optional — the request goes through with or without it.
Which areas does PlumberTexas cover?
All of Texas: the site lists every covered city with real ZIP codes, the county permit authority and nearby coverage, so requests route to a professional already working that area.
Is PlumberTexas a plumbing company?
No. Independent licensed professionals perform and contract the work directly with you. PlumberTexas routes the request and links every page to the official Texas licence register.
