Thanks for the video, Roger! Just so others are aware, their faucet (like mine) may be different. I was prepared to replace the spring and washer, but turns out my 2-handle faucet was different. It deployed screw-on brass valve stems that had a size 0 rubber washer that was held on at the bottom with a Phillips screw. Also an easy repair, but just a different configuration.

[@RogerWakefield]

Thanks for sharing that tip!

[@jacobbowling263]

Roger, your videos are always helpful and I’m thankful that I subscribed to your channel because if I ever have a plumbing problem or emergency I will use your videos to help me.

[@RogerWakefield]

That’s the reason of me making videos, glad to know they serve a purpose! Thanks

[@saralivingston8313]

Again, your video made quick work of my leaking faucet. Thanks so much for your videos!

[@user-pl9nl2zq7g]

Ty very much

[@Mindsaw]

I've been following your videos for a while now, and you are always informative and on point with your content. I admire you and would love to collaborate if you want a guest on your channel. Keep up the great work!

[@babyhazardd]

From Roger to Roger, thank you Roger. Love the work Roger, keep up the good work Roger !

[@RogerWakefield]

To you Roger, from Roger...Thank you Roger for the kind words...

[@kaneamora7371]

I was distracted by the $1,000 worth of packout boxes in the background. 😂

[@RogerWakefield]

👀 they do look nice don’t they

[@bh2746]

Wow, this was a lifesaver for me. Lots of company tomorrow. My faucets are not leaking anymore.!

[@RogerWakefield]

Great to hear!

[@peons1]

Speaking from my VERY limited experience, it is a good idea to know where the main water shut off is in your house as well. Thank you for the vid!

[@RogerWakefield]

its ALWAYS important to know where your water and gas shut off valves are to your house...this is information everyone living in the home NEEDS to know

[@pauldemoret]

Thanks for the help. I'm going to give it a shot. 🎉

[@dannywinters2905]

Thanks mine is fixed!!!

[@billbaber6653]

Thanks Roger

[@RogerWakefield]

No problem! Glad I could help you out

[@jameswaller-eo9bg]

Hey Roger, With so many differant types/brands of faucet, do you have to take the cartridge out to referance what to go buy? Or are they basic and easy enough to find whereas a guy could not have to make 2 trips and have the homeowner be without water How about making sure your basket strainers are in? Removing the airiater also not a bad idea and being prepared to replace bad shut-off valves. In advance.

[@None-qe4gq]

How would you remove the gasket if the stem in the middle sprays from the bottom?

[@annguyen-mu1in]

Thanks,I did

[@digitalis2977]

Now do a univalve facet, please!

[@rhythmspiral]

How do I tell what parts need to be replaced? Cartridges can be spendy

[@RogerWakefield]

are there any parts that look damaged? You may not have to replace anything, just take it apart,clean it and put it back together

[@luciahaskins3170]

I'm still struggling with a kitchen and lavatory slow leak on faucets. I've taken them apart and replaced the spring/rubber. Sounds like I'll have to replace the cartridge next to fix it.

[@RogerWakefield]

It’s worth a shot…hope that fixes the problem!

[@dogdream5414]

Well THAT sure worked out perfectly! Lol! Were they ALL this simple & accessible! Lol I think you missed one of the most important steps: Step 0: COVER/PLUG the DRAIN(S) in case you drop a screw/washer/spring etc. into the sink and it rolls down the drain (as you curse in slow-motion!)

[@marilynmansion9631]

This helped a lot Thank you

[@RogerWakefield]

Glad to hear!

[@garethtompkins7232]

I just tell the customer to buy a new faucet lol

[@androidphone6972]

I need to learn trades to fix a fing faucet, so complicated

[@trevormomeyer5420]

Hello Roger. I was not able to find an email address or a way to contact you other than left a KZbin comment. Regardless I was wondering if you could help me prepare for an interview I have coming up with my local plumbers and pipefitters union. I love your videos so much it has inspired me to pursue a career in plumbing and hopefully one day become a master plumber and be able to teach younger generations.

[@RogerWakefield]

Hey Trevor…I have a link in my description on how to get in contact with me. I have multiple videos on preparing for a job interview on what questions to ask and how to answer questions. Hopefully those help you out…good luck on your journey !

[@jackdorsey4850]

What no handle puller?

[@thishandleistacken]

"Dirty Hoe Garden Supply" made me and my girlfriend crack up XD Thanks for the helpful vid. Commenting and liking for "engagement points" and subscribing.

[@mobile507]

im flabbergasted at those SharkBite angle stops

[@RogerWakefield]

It’s a QuickFitting same type of fitting…different brand..way better

[@r.leonardcurtiss8336]

Mine didn't have a spring or rubber washer under the cartridge. Spent the last 30 min trying to find it till I realized it wasn't there. Turns out they don't all have one. Would have been nice to know for anyone with similar issue 👍🏻

[@sage0925]

Yep. Mine was just a cartridge. However, the majority of the video I found helpful.

[@amirpandayt8786]

Roger bro. Plz tell me. What is the requirements for getting the plumbing job. In USA. From Pakistan

[@RogerWakefield]

You need to have a license to do plumbing. Look up in your area what is required to be a plumber. Most likely you will need to do at least 4 years of apprentice work...Hope this helps

[@amirpandayt8786]

@@RogerWakefield can we get a job in USA. As a plumbing. When have experience and license?

[@speakfreely.1776]

Roger I hired a plumber who uses shark bites because he said he didn't want to start a fire in the wall, but he turned out to be the WORST plumber in the country. He flooded my basement, ruined my shower plumbing, horrible finish work. Nightmare experience.

[@RogerWakefield]

Sooo sorry to hear about this, sharkbites are a 🚩

[@chris76-01]

He could have used a brass compression fitting.

[@SadUncleTed]

​@@chris76-01 could have used pro-press.

[@unclej7621]

Maybe get someone with a license next time instead of the guy in front of Home Depot ma’am

[@speakfreely.1776]

@@unclej7621 maybe shove a stick up where the sun don't shine, buddy.

[@DianeCrossland-kb2ds]

I took off my handle and removed the stem gasket and spring and it is still leaking from my hot water valve. What else could it be?

[@martybedigian6936]

My faucet has no screws , or anything to take off. What do you do?

[@lynx50187]

Some have a set screw usually hidden beneath a plug, on mine it's the blue or red marker on the faucet

[@samkitty5894]

On my cold water side water is dripping under the sink when the handle is turned on. It drips directly from under the mounting nut. Any idea why?

[@RogerWakefield]

May need to replace the faucet. You need to find out where the water is coming out of the faucet at…

[@FirstnameLamename]

I just change out the whole fixture, and fuggeddiboutit

[@johndaniels7609]

This is way too much for me..I think I'll just call a plumber!

[@pauldemoret]

Ifi screw up wouldn't I ĵst go under sink and turn it off there and not and the main?

[@unclej7621]

Change the angle stops and supply hoses too for some extra $ lol

[@yvonneshaw5779]

What do I do if it is not the cold nor hot water, or the net on the faucet? I guess replace the whole faucet?
