No, fixing a dripping faucet is generally a straightforward DIY repair that requires basic hand tools like adjustable pliers, hex wrenches, and a replacement parts kit. In most cases, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn-out rubber O-ring, washer, ceramic cartridge, or spring seal. Replacing these inexpensive internal components takes 20 to 30 minutes and stops the leak completely. Callout type="warning" title="Hygiene Warning": Turn off the hot and cold water supply valves under the sink before disassembling any faucet handles. Verification: Turn the water back on and test the faucet to confirm zero dripping when fully closed.
