Part readings, priced apart by frame
| Part row, Frame A | Part reading | Frame A note |
|---|---|---|
| Cartridge | $10-$100 | part line as printed |
| O-ring | $1-$5 | part line as printed |
| Rubber washer | $2-$5 | part line as printed |
| Valve seat | $5-$10 | part line as printed |
| Ceramic disk | $20-$50 | part line as printed |
| Stem | $10-$50 | part line as printed |
| Hose | $15-$50 | part line as printed |
| Gaskets and seals | $2-$10 | part line as printed |
The two frames print the same part lines at the same readings, and the lines still stand apart: each frame counted its own reported visits, so a cartridge line at $10-$100 in Frame A and in Frame B are two published readings, never one merged line. Frame B also prints the parts span whole at $1-$100. A part row is never repriced as a location row, and the labor line stands apart from every part line.
Part lines: Frame B
| Part row, Frame B | Part reading | Frame B note |

| O-ring | $1-$5 | part line as printed |
| Rubber washer | $2-$5 | part line as printed |
| Valve seat | $5-$10 | part line as printed |
| Ceramic disk | $20-$50 | part line as printed |
| Stem | $10-$50 | part line as printed |
| Hose | $15-$50 | part line as printed |
| Gaskets and seals | $2-$10 | part line as printed |
Frame B lines behind the rows: a parts span at $1-$100 printed whole beside the part lines, and a cartridge reading inside a tub line at $30-$70 on its by-type page -- a second cartridge reading inside the same frame, apart from the $10-$100 part line.
Part against part, frame against frame
A cartridge row at $10-$100 against an O-ring row at $1-$5 and a valve seat row at $5-$10, priced apart by part inside each frame. The frames price the same visit apart -- an average at $270 with most visits at $100-$400 in Frame A against an average at $270 with most visits at $200-$330 and a wider full span at $60-$500 in Frame B, a kitchen sink row at $100-$250 against a kitchen reading around $250 as a point, a repair average at $210 on the Angi repair-vs-replace page against $270 on its repair page -- a frame difference, never averaged, never blended.
The part split stands on every row: a part line counts the named part alone, the visit band counts parts and labor together, and the hub location rows count the visit by location -- three readings of one visit, printed apart and never converted into one another.
The neighbours named apart
Named apart, never a row here: kitchen faucet installation, the new-faucet job on the standing installation cluster; hose-bibb replacement, the outdoor faucet replacement job; shower-valve replacement, the valve replacement job; and the bathroom plumbing-fixture guide, fixture jobs priced apart -- this cluster prices the repair visit alone.
The local read
The local read: the frames above are national published frames; a written quote for one address and one faucet line is the only local figure.

Frequently asked questions
What does faucet repair cost by part, as reported?
Both frames print cartridge at $10 to $100, O-ring at $1 to $5, rubber washer at $2 to $5, valve seat at $5 to $10, ceramic disk at $20 to $50, stem at $10 to $50, and hose at $15 to $50 -- two published readings standing apart, never one merged line.
What does a cartridge print at, as reported?
The part line prints at $10 to $100 in both frames, each apart. Frame B also prints a cartridge reading at $30 to $70 inside its bathtub line -- a second reading inside the same frame, named apart.
What does an O-ring print at, as reported?
Both frames print the O-ring line at $1 to $5, each apart -- the smallest part line on the guide, standing beside the visit bands that count parts and labor together.
What does the parts span print at, as reported?
Frame B prints the parts span whole at $1 to $100 beside its part lines. Frame A prints its part lines across the same span, from the O-ring line at $1 to $5 to the cartridge line at $10 to $100, each apart.
Is a shower-valve replacement priced on this guide?
No. Shower-valve replacement belongs to the standing shower-valve replacement cluster, named apart and never a by-part row here; kitchen faucet installation, hose-bibb replacement, and the bathroom plumbing-fixture guide stand in their own lanes. This guide prices the repair visit by part.
