What a sweet, simple, short, and to-the-point video. Thank you!

@HandymanHertz 5 месяцев назад

You're welcome, thanks for watching!

@flaviovalle1656 18 дней назад

I agree 100% !!! 😎

@jessehaefele2289 Год назад

We always recommend to service faucets in pairs. Both stems are likely the same age. Easier to just do them both at the same time!

@HandymanHertz Год назад

That’s a great recommendation. I’ve found with our rental houses (delta faucets) one side needs replaced and the other one will last and last and last. Almost like only 1 bearing going out in the lifetime of a car. Just my experience.

@iamiverson11 4 месяца назад

yeah and shut off the water to both…..SHUT OFF THE WATER TO BOTH!

@jinsu0504 2 месяца назад

I cant turn the shut off valve it ia shut off tight

@abulletforrem Месяц назад

@@HandymanHertzjust replace both man. Can’t expect one side will last longer than the other and Stems are only like $8-$10 a piece. Water is naturally corrosive so rubber and spring will get worn out and most the time when it does corrode, it turns into a can of worms like hard to get that shit out for the next guy.

@myinttun753 11 дней назад

Disagree why replace if it is good? They might be the same age, but usage will be different depending on the cold and hot weather

@carterlanemedia Год назад

The silence I am thoroughly enjoying because I no longer have a leaky faucet… it’s pure bliss. Thank you. I am beyond grateful for easy to follow videos like this!!

@thewiseguy7100 2 месяца назад

When you put the the new seat and spring is it suppose to be flush in there completely? The one I took off was flat flushed down, and when I do it it’s in there but not flat flush down

@HandymanHertz 2 месяца назад

It is not supposed to be flush, it's supposed to stick up a bit so the spring can press it against the cartridge and seal it. Hope this helps. I have a full video of this same project that goes into more details

That you im going to try today

@HandymanHertz 4 месяца назад

@skinnyb8888 5 месяцев назад

I soak and clean in CLR first. About 75%of the time it works. Just lime and gunk

@HandymanHertz 5 месяцев назад

Interesting, I've never tried that. I assume that's for the cartridges? Thanks for the tip, I'll have to try that.

@herrent 3 месяца назад

Of course this is a new model So the nut comes right off. Would’ve been nice to show you taking an old crusty nut off holding the backside. I assume there’s a special wrench on a rod that fits in that tiny area underneath

@HandymanHertz 2 месяца назад

Most of them I come across are this easy that I've experienced.

@tsegaia2909 9 месяцев назад

Thank You For Your Info , I Same problem on my sink , Where do I Get The Part?

@HandymanHertz 9 месяцев назад

Amazon or your local hardware store. Take it to them and someone will help you. I have a longer version of this video that explains more detail. You may enjoy checking it out.

@tsegaia2909 9 месяцев назад

@HandymanHertz Thank you, Sr

@shantor100 8 месяцев назад

Now fix that flexible trap set up

@HandymanHertz 8 месяцев назад

Yup!

@thehungrynutritionist 9 месяцев назад

How do we know which side is leaky ? Hot or cold

@HandymanHertz 9 месяцев назад

Do you have shut off valves underneath? Close one of them (the valve on the cold, for instance) and if it stops leaking, it’s the cold. If not, it’s the hot. (Verify this by opening the cold back up and closing the hot in case it’s a rare case of a valve not closing all the way)

@kkeenan536 8 месяцев назад

I cannot get the seat to seat. Is it supposed to recess down into where the spring is?

@HandymanHertz 8 месяцев назад

yes, but not very much. with a correct fit, the seat should be able to be pressed down and the spring pop it back up. also, make the the spring has the wide end on the bottom. i have a full video of this that should help explain this bettter

@kkeenan536 8 месяцев назад

What if the cartridge won't budge?

@HandymanHertz 3 месяца назад

its its like mine, Grab Some Pliers or vise grips and yank it out. I've never ran across anything that was that tough, so make sure the nut is off that is holding it in. i have a full video on replacing this that may be helpful

@jrcastillo2824 3 месяца назад

@@HandymanHertzI had already tried vise-grips and was worried I might do more damage than good so I put it back together and decided to call a plumber after the weekend. Turned the water back on and, THIS IS WILD, it isn't leaking again at all so far! I don't know what to make of that. Really appreciate your response. Sincerely, JR

@HandymanHertz 3 месяца назад

@jrcastillo2824 interesting, the rubber gasket must have got bumped or adjusted. Maybe the Cartridge nut was loose and allowing water past the seats?. Glad you got it stopped, at least temporarily 👍🏼

@rodneywhite3543 Год назад

So is it the seat screw

@HandymanHertz Год назад

If it is leaking out of the spout, then either 1) your rubber seats are bad or 2) your cartridge is bad. I show how to replace both in my longer video on my channel.

@deniseb9302 11 месяцев назад

There was no seat or spring when I removed the cartridge. I even reached in to see if I could feel it and there was nothing 😏

@sideshowdrummer Год назад

I don't have a cap what's the next thing to do

@HandymanHertz Год назад

Look behind the handle there may be a set screw you loosen to take off the handle.

@jojomafia3851 Год назад

What if one the sides is not working. 🤔

@HandymanHertz Год назад

You can replace only one side, if that’s what you are asking?

@alejandrosoto1480 4 дня назад

Step 1:Take off cartridge. Step 2: Find the guy like me and Identify faucet and cartridge. In this case Delta! FYI Not all faucet have springs and washers like this. Do it yourselfers go to hardware store and think all faucets are the same and “they all have springs and washers, because guy in video said so”😂. Do your homework. Pull out cartridge and identify it. Moen, Pfister, American Standard, yes even Glacier Bay! Have different stems or cartridges!
