A leaking faucet. A loose cabinet door. A drawer that always sticks.
None of these seem like a big deal—until they are. Left alone, even the smallest kitchen issues can become time-consuming, expensive problems. Worse, they can disrupt the flow of your daily routine.
At RenoRepair.ca, we believe in tackling these issues early with clearly scoped, flat-rate fixes done by local pros you can trust.
Here are the most common kitchen repairs that are worth getting done before they spiral.
1. Faucet Leaks & Loose Handles
Kitchen faucets get used dozens of times a day, which means they wear down faster than you think. Common issues:
- Constant dripping or slow leaks
- Wobbly handles or base
- Reduced water pressure from blocked aerators
A small leak can waste hundreds of litres of water a year and cause hidden damage to the countertop or cabinet below.
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Diagnosing the issue, tightening or replacing the faulty part, and reseating if needed.
2. Cabinet Doors & Handles
Cabinet doors get slammed, leaned on, and overloaded. It’s no surprise they start sagging or won’t close properly.
- Hinges coming loose or misaligned
- Handles falling off
- Doors that won’t stay shut
Fixing this early prevents hinge anchor damage or full door replacements later.
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Adjusting or re-securing hinges, replacing handles, and touch-up alignment.
3. Drawer Tracks & Slides
That one drawer that always jams? It’s not just annoying—it’s a sign the slide or rail is warped, clogged, or bent.
Left alone, it’ll get worse and could eventually break entirely.
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Cleaning the track, replacing the slide hardware, and restoring smooth function.
4. Garbage Disposal (If Present)
Not all homes in the GTA have garbage disposals, but if yours does, you know how crucial it is to keep it running smoothly.
- Odd smells or grinding noises
- Unit not turning on
- Water leaking from underneath
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Unjamming or replacing the unit, checking electrical connections, and sealing leaks.
5. Under-Sink Leaks
Drips under the sink often go unnoticed until they start rotting out the cabinet floor or attracting pests.
- Loose drain pipes or P-trap leaks
- Damaged faucet hose
- Improperly sealed joints
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Full inspection and repair of supply and drain lines, including P-trap replacement if needed.
6. Backsplash Re-Caulking
The seal between your backsplash and countertop protects against water and grime buildup.
Over time, caulk:
- Cracks
- Peels
- Gets moldy
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Removing old caulk, applying fresh waterproof silicone, and leaving a neat finish.
7. Dishwasher Connection Issues
A leaking or poorly installed dishwasher line can create serious damage behind the scenes.
- Loose water line or drain hose
- Poor water pressure
- Unit not draining fully
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Inspecting water and drain lines, securing fittings, and checking for clogs.
8. Range Hood Filters
Greasy, clogged filters reduce ventilation and increase fire risk.
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Removing, degreasing, and reinstalling metal filters—or replacing them if needed.
9. Under-Cabinet Lighting
Burnt-out bulbs or flickering LED strips under your cabinets can make your kitchen feel dim and dated.
✅ Flat-rate fix includes: Replacing tubes, LED strips, or drivers and securing the light mounts.
