Thank you for explaining everything. I’m older and alone and can’t afford a plumber for all the little things that need to be done. This was one of them. God bless…🙏🏻👍🙏🏻
it saves me 250$, just got quote from local plumbers company and after watching this video, goes to homedepot to buy gaskets and fix time takes 15 min!!! saved 240$
Hey thanks for the video, so many people want the spigot replaced instead of maintained. Glad to know how to maintain my/ my neighbor's properties more. Thank you.
@@dncndan1 - that is true!! One must accept that Nothing works as easily as it appears in a youtube video - but the steps and the process and the right tools are what you need to get it done
Out of curiosity, with those rubber washers being so cheap, why wouldn't you just replace them both? Preventive maintenance, not reactive maintenance. Still a good video because a lot of people wouldn't know what to do in this situation.
thank you man everyone else shows removing entire assembly, mine wouldnt move at all. i was able to repair my leak with your video thank you. btw only cost me 2 bucks
Nice explanation. I'm about to do this to my outdoor faucets on my 1966 house. The faucets look original and I'm assuming the washers might have been replaced once (can't imagine they lasted 54 years). I'm hoping the new washers will last another 30 years.
Thanks for this video I had a plumber tell me he would have to cut my brick and replace the whole pipe inside the wall can you buy a new stem mine is stripped???
He used a wrench to turn off on water. I was told it would cost almost $100 to buy a water key. After seeing this video i dont need a water key to shut off my water in an emergency.
Not $100. I paid about $40 - $50 at the orange box store. It depends on far the turn-valve is from street level. Mine is about three feet down so I can’t reach it with a wrench and had to buy the water key. In the far north, they can be four feet below ground, due to the frost line. This guy sounds like he’s in the South, so they’re not buried very deep and he can easily reach it with a hand tool.
You really want me to believe that screw had been in water for 35 years, and it came loose that easy? Be, honest you loosened it prior to showing you unscrewing it, right?
