Minor plumbing repair in Albuquerque
Dripping faucets, running toilets, a disposal that just hums, a slow leak under the sink. The everyday plumbing problems that don't need a big plumbing company, fixed in one visit whenever parts allow. Every estimate is free.
Veteran-owned and operatedWhat's covered
Faucet repair and replacement
Kitchen, bathroom and laundry faucets. Drips fixed with new cartridges or washers, or the whole faucet swapped for one you picked out or one picked up for you.
Toilet repair and replacement
Running toilets, weak flushes, rocking bases and slow leaks at the floor. New fill valves, flappers and wax rings, or a complete toilet swap.
Garbage disposals
Jammed or humming disposals freed up, leaking units replaced, and new disposals installed under existing sinks.
Leaks under the sink
Drips at the P-trap, loose slip nuts, cracked drain fittings and seeping supply connections tracked down and fixed before they ruin the cabinet floor.
Supply lines and shutoff valves
Old rubber supply lines replaced with braided steel, and stuck or leaking shutoff valves under sinks and toilets replaced.
Dishwasher installs
New and replacement dishwashers connected to the existing water supply and drain, leveled, and secured under the counter.
Showerheads and cartridges
Showerhead upgrades, handheld showers, and worn shower valve cartridges replaced to stop drips and fix temperature problems.
Slow and clogged sink drains
Sink and tub drains cleared at the trap and stopper, and worn pop-up drain assemblies replaced.
Built for Albuquerque water
Albuquerque's water is hard, and the minerals in it take a toll on fixtures. Aerators clog, faucet cartridges stiffen and start to drip, and toilet fill valves wear out sooner than they should.
Many dripping faucets and running toilets around town trace back to that buildup, and most are quick fixes once the worn part is replaced. If a fixture is past saving, you'll get a straight answer and a price on a replacement.
What's included, and what isn't
Desert Forge handles repairs and like-for-like replacements of fixtures you already have. Moving or adding pipes, water heaters, gas lines, sewer lines and remodel plumbing get referred to a licensed plumbing contractor, and you'll hear that up front if your job falls into that category.

Questions
Can you install a faucet or toilet I already bought?
Yes. If you've already picked one out, it gets installed. If not, one can be picked up for you and included in the estimate.
Do you haul away the old fixture?
Yes. The old faucet, toilet or disposal can be hauled away when the job is done. Just mention it when you book.
How fast can you come out?
Smaller jobs can often be scheduled within a few days. If water is actively leaking, turn off the shutoff valve under the fixture, or the main if you can't find one, then call or text right away.
Is the estimate really free?
Yes. Text a photo of the problem and you can often get a price the same day.
