Can we all take a minute to appreciate the work this man is doing to entertain and educate us. Man thank you very much!.

Plumbers are underappreciated. The range of expertise is phenomenal if you find a good plumber.

I would suggest always using a backup wrench on the valve body itself just to be safe. It really sucks to cause a new leak when trying to fix an old one. Doesnt take much and sometimes will save a giant headache

This video is a lifesaver. I just spent the last couple weekends fixing a variety of leaks in some old plumbing (the only thing stopping me from installing my new tub and shower.) After basically resoldering all the joints and replacing half the parts, I then realized my last leak was from the valve itself…and I almost cried… This fix worked like a charm! Thank you for saving me from burning my house down for the insurance payout :D

I'm a service technician so I know All about the packing nut trick . I think it's really cool people take the time to show others I've learned a lot from you tube. Great job 👍 Keep up the good work if I ever get stuck on a project I go straight to YouTube.

I have tightened the packing nut on many of valves to stop the leaks. Some multiple times over the years. Works like a charm 🙂
-
Great tip for a short term fix. Plan on replacing the valve.
-
Thank you. You are helping more people than you realize.

This algorithm is amazing. I replaced my kitchen sink today. When I was testing for leaks I found my cold valve was leaking. I hadn't seen this video, but tightened that nut anyway. Worked like a charm.

This is the exact problem I had after having to remove the toilet to install new vinyl plank flooring and your "easy trick" saved the day. Thanks !!

I replaced a bathroom sink in my old farmhouse. Call waterline was leaking when I turned the shut off valve back on. And I figured it was just an old shut off valve and figured I’d have to deal with it another day. Came across your video and you saved me time and money. Thank you.

I am so glad I seen this before I replaced the valve. I can't believe something as simple as that worked. Thank you
