Really ? A plumber tried to charge you for a new one? That's unbelievable. They usually charge an amount that's exactly proportionate to the services rendered. They work so hard for the minimal amount they charge. I usually tip extra because they are making minimum wage on a good day. We all need to support our hard working, honest plumbers.

@JustForYouDiy3 жыл бұрын
Sorry to hear that replacing seats and springs did not fix the leak. You may want to try one more thing before replacing the cartridge. There may be some hard water deposit inside the valve body keeping the seats from sealing, where the springs and seats go. If so, you can soak a piece of cloth with CLR (wear gloves and follow the CLR’s handling instructions) and shove it into the valve body and let it sit in there to dissolve the hard water deposits. I’ve seen that work before. Hopefully it will work for you too.

@JustForYouDiy3 жыл бұрын
Lucho, if the seats and springs are good, couple of other things could cause the drip. If the valve has a tension adjustment, a ring that’s part of the retaining nut, then, the tension could be too loose. The other possible cause could be hard water buildup inside the valve where seats and springs go. To get rid of that, I’ve used CLR. I’ve put CLR in a spray bottle and spray the inside of the valve. Then after 2-3 minutes, I spray water to remove all CLR. If you decide to use CLR, please follow the mfg’s use instructions. Hope this helps.
