great step-by-step video! thanks for all the great info!
Your welcome. I’m sure this will help someone out dealing with these things.
@@ThatFixItGuy Hello THAT FIX IT GUY hoping to hear from you today. I had a kitchen leak around the faucet area. I put in the rubber or o-ring or gasket whatever you call it for some call it one and another...put in the rubber with the spring like I have been doing for years in the handle and it stopped the leak on the cold, the hot was fine. So the next day the very old line started leaking under the sink on the cold. I have never changed it in 20 years, so I changed the line under the sink for the cold. The leak stopped yesterday. Ran the water all day then today, the center faucet line started leaking!
Is this just a coincidence or can water pressure cause this? This line is also really old and doesn't look good. Do you think I am wasting my time and just need a whole new faucet? I know the basics, have changed the cartridges thru the years, but they seem fine. I am just totally stumped that I have a new leak in the center faucet now.
Thank you so much!
I know this video is a year old but you absolutely saved me about $70. I had a terrible drip so I popped the handle and that plastic ring had no give, it was basically flush pressing down on the spring. Disassembled it a wouldn't you know absolutely no leak at all! You sir are a hero!
Thanks for this. Helped me fix my sink, that has been leaking for like 10 years. I needed a 3s !5H, but you got me on the right track.
Awesome timing! I have one of these in my Kitchen and I thought that this brand was none repairable. But thanks to you Brian I now know that it is and I know how to fix it. Thank you and thumbs UP !! 👍
That is great time it! I love it. As long as you don’t have any of the other stuff going on it is a quick in and out.
Ĺ moo
Nice video, I looked for a way to fix my faucet, and BAM, there you were. Simple, with useful details. Thanks, Fix It Guy!
Thanks for the tips Brian! My faucet is still going strong! If it starts to drip with give you a shout!
Thanks Brian for the informative video. That’s a mess under the sink. I will be looking forward to seeing you remedy that situation 👍
Yeah it is going to take a little work, but we will get er looking pretty.
Brian, hindsight is always 20/20. Whoever did the plumbing didn't necessarily think things through, or else it was done at 2pm on a Friday, and this is the result. I wish you well as you get into repairing these issues.
I agree. They set no one up for success. We will get all that hooked up and looking pretty! Hope you and your family are well Bryant.
Man had to get in thar evening hunt that day lol
Thanks for the information 👍
Thank you!
🎯🎯👍🏻👍🏻 fixd the problem without a call to the plumber thanks
Watching again to give you UA-cam Cred. 100% watch and Great Big Thumbs Up
Thank you bro! I really appreciate it.
We have a glazier bay kitchen faucet without the seed and spring. So is it missing are do some come without those, because the hot are cold side did not have one. Really wanted to know was that the problem our kitchen faucet is dripping. THANKS!!!
Well done 👍🏻
Thank you.
Excellent video! After fixing the leak, I personally would've just left it with "not enough hot water", which would save me on my water bill. :P Also, I like your cheerfulness
Wow! seems like pandoras box full of adventure! I know i'm guilty of over using those trusty channel locks from time to time...
😂 like a never ending puzzle. Yeah bro the channys are a go to in a lot of cases. They just get it done.
Love the Leatherman were did you get it?
A friend hooked me up with it when I started working UXO years ago. I bought the attachments on Amazon. It is so handy.
I can never get that rubber seat to go down into the hole. It takes me sometimes an hour to get it to go in there.
Try guiding it with an Allen wrench works pretty well for me.
Awesome video. That must drive you insane. I mean to go in and do one job and find out there are five more jobs that need to be done to make it all correct. Guess that's why I'm not a plumber. Thanks for the video though, well done.
I try to go into a job thinking it will be the worst ever. That way I’m not freaked out by it. And when it turns out easy I’m happy with getting it done so fast. Not this time though. Thank you Scott.
Hello THAT FIX IT GUY or anyone!, I had a kitchen leak around the faucet area. I put in the rubber or o-ring or gasket whatever you call it for some call it one and another...put in the rubber with the spring like I have been doing for years in the handle and it stopped the leak on the cold, the hot was fine.

Thank you so much!
I would just replace the faucet and supply lines. You get to a point where it is better and it nickel and dimeing you to death.
@@ThatFixItGuy I may as well just check because either way I am going to have to replace the Faucet supply line, the hot and cold are new now. Thank you
Yeah right on.
Great vid Brian! This one will be useful for tons of people! Thanks! Josh #stoneyrdigefarmer
Thanks bro! I think so too. Thanks for all the support!
Great clearly explained, does the wider side of spring face down, i think it does from the video? Thank you in advance for the answer, but i think i can do it. I almost just replaced the intire the sink. 🎉 thanks again.
Went to the hardware store and saw different size stem valves. How do I know what size I need. I have a delta Kitchen Faucet. Should I just take it out and compare at store?
I totally would take it to the store and compare. Great way to make sure you get what you need if you can.
@@ThatFixItGuy thanks I did find the part. Update on the repair. Still leaking but not as it once did. what do you recommend?
Did it have a seat and spring in the valve as well? Did you change that?
@@ThatFixItGuy Yes I changed that as well. It is dripping way less, though. Any ideas? Should I re install the part to make sure everything is okay?
You could try that. Send me a picture on Facebook if you like. I would like to see what your working with.
Is the Allen wrench 25mm or 2.5mm?
My bad. I think I forgot the decimal in the video. 2.5 mm.
Always a challenge when you tackle that kind of job. Looks like some shoddy work under that sink
...🙄
Oh I agree. We will get it hooked up for her. Love things people do.
It must be a 2.5 mm Allen key.
Surprised it would be mm, but your probably right.
it would be easier just to turn off the main water supply.
Nice video. But, yowser, it would have been nice to soak all those hard water, crusted parts in CLR solution to clean things up for a nice, tidy repair job. Also, it's good practice to put some silicone grease on the spring loaded rubber cap to provide a longer lasting seal. Considering how things were on the hot water side, it probably is only a matter of time before the rubber cap/spring on the cold water side fails too and starts leaking. Usually those cap/spring repair kits come in twos. Hope you do your friend the added favor of updating the cold side too.
This mentions nothing of working under the sink! So get to the cheese!
What kind of cheese?
