You don't notice it until you do. The faucet handle that used to spin freely now needs a real grip to turn.
The cause is almost always inside the cartridge, calcium buildup, worn seals, or grease that's broken down over years of use. None of those fix themselves.
Forcing a stiff handle is what turns a small problem into a leak. Catch it before it cracks.
If yours is getting harder to turn, Knoxville, we're a call away. 🛠️
