If a Girl Taps You on the Back

A faucet from the Delta Faucet company is more than just another tap or shower fixture. From the bottom up, the company is known for making water fixtures that stand out for their elegance and convenience. Everything from kitchen taps that you can turn on with a tap of the elbow to beautiful golden shower appliances is built with a touch of class. Like anything else, though, these masterpieces can break.

Common reasons for a Delta faucet to break is bumping into one with heavy items, incorrect installation, or just plain age. It is, however, quite straightforward to repair your broken Delta faucet or get an exact replacement for the one that broke.

Identifying Your Delta Faucet

There are many models of faucets from this American company and so your first step will be to determine the type of faucet you own. Delta faucets come in two main groups: kitchen faucets and bathroom faucets.

You can identify the type of your kitchen faucet by comparing its appearance with those of Delta Faucets available for sale from the company's website. Some major lines of kitchen faucets from Delta Faucets include Savile, Cassidy, Mateo, Spargo, Victorian and Classic.

Bathroom faucet lines are just as numerous, including Tesla, Zura, Dryden, and Commercial. Once you have identified the type of faucet you have, you can explore your repair options. Failing repair, you will need to consider a replacement.

The first step in attempting faucet repair is to consult the manual that came with your Delta Faucet. The manual will show you standard care procedures and how to fix minor problems such as objects getting stuck in the faucet.

In case the damage looks significant, you have multiple options for repair. First check if you have a valid warranty. If so, Delta Faucet might cover part or all of your repair costs. You should call the Delta Faucet customer support number at 1-800-345-DELTA (3358) to get help with your claim. You can also inquire at the same number for the best repair solution near you.

Replacing a Damaged Delta Faucet Handle

Sometimes the damage to your faucet is limited to a single part, such as the handle or sprinkler on a faucet. In this case, you can replace just the malfunctioning part instead of the entire faucet.

You can order replacement parts through the Delta Faucets website or on the phone. In addition, you can purchase parts from a local dealer, depending on the availability of parts at that location. To find dealers near you, you can call Delta Faucets support or use the dealer search tool on the manufacturer's website.

Replacing a Delta Peerless Faucet

The Peerless brand is one of the Delta Faucet Company's subsidiary brands. Products sold under the Peerless brand tend to be more affordable than regular Delta Faucet products while showcasing the same elegant styling in the regular product lines.

It is much easier to fix a Peerless faucet at home than a more expensive Delta faucet. Delta makes available repair instructions in manuals or repair guides available at its website. To replace a Delta Peerless faucet, you can order parts or the entire faucet and accessories from a local dealer.

Price of Faucet Replacement on Selected Delta Faucet Models

The cost of repairing or replacing your Delta Faucet varies widely with the model of faucet that you need. For example, Peerless faucets will be relatively cheap to repair or to replace entirely.

Here are average prices for complete replacement of selected Delta faucet models:

Essa Single Handle Pull-Down Bar / Prep Faucet – $317
Zura Single Handle Vessel Bathroom Faucet – $599
Dryden Single Handle Vessel Bathroom Faucet – $585
Delta Peerless Single Handle Kitchen Pull-Down with Soap Dispenser – $209

The cost will depend on the dealer location, the model of faucet, as well as faucet materials and finish.

What to Do If Your Delta Faucet Has Been Discontinued

You might find that your model of Delta Faucet has been discontinued. If this is the case, it is often best to select an actively supported model for the replacement. Where this is not desirable, due to aesthetics or cost, you can try to find repair parts through online dealers and auctions sites where limited supplies may still be available.
