    Finally convinced my mom to let me try and fix her leaky sink using this video instead of having the plumbers replace the entire faucet. Worked like a charm!! Thank you! Saved me probably $300 😂😂

    This is excellent. I've been looking for instructions to help me muddle through my drippy faucet for quite some time, and now I can finally stop looking :) I've got a delta repair kit on the way, which has seats, springs, grommits and cassettes. I'm hoping that changing the springs and seats alone will fix the problem, and if not I'll have the other parts handy -- not sure what to do with the grommits but perhaps you and your parrot have made a video for that so I'll cross that bridge / walk that plank when I come to it. Thanks again for being so chill, encouraging and thorough with your instruction and tips! I'd subscribe to the whole pirate ship if I could :P

    Thank you for going the extra step of showing the gasket and spring UNDER the cartridge!!!
    I replaced a hot water cartridge for my MIL and in a few months it started to leak again 🤦 .
    I bought a new cartridge at that has the gasket and spring with it. Even though the cartridge is a few months old, I will still change it out at the same time .
    Thanks again for this video!!!

    Thank you for this video! I love that even if I can't see what you're doing straight on, I can see it in the mirror - nicely done! Do you put the flared side of the seat down or up when you go to install the new one? I wasn't sure if it mattered, and I couldn't quite tell when I watched the video.

    • @thepiratehandyman2225

    Great video, taught me all I needed to know. My biggest problem was finding the right seat and spring. I made 2 trips to Ace Hardware, but it was wrong both times. So I ended up at Lowe's. It was smooth sailing from there. My next project is unclogging my double-drain kitchen sink with disposal. Have any videos on that?

I’m a woman and was able to fix this myself and save some $$$!!!

    This video was so helpful. I've always tried to do repairs myself, but was reluctant on this because I thought I'd have to replace a cartridge - and how could I do that without knowing the brand of faucet? So, I went to UA-cam and you showed me exactly what to do and gave clear instructions, including tips. Just finished and vóila, no more leaking faucet! Thank you!

    Hello! New to your channel and have subscribed 😊 I’ve watched quite a few videos on how to fix a leaky bathroom sink faucet, and yours was the one that gave me the confidence I needed. Went and picked up a pack of seats and springs tonight and plan on fixing the sink on Friday. I live in an apartment, so really I could just call maintenance but then you have to set up a time frame you need to be home, which is usually a hassle. Plus if it’s something inexpensive and I feel like I can do it, I like to do it myself as it gives me a nice feeling of accomplishment 😊 Will keep you posted on how it goes! Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
