  • Thank you so much for this! This is the best video on YouTube explaining how to fix this problem. This is exactly what I needed :)
  • Always cover the sink drain hole to prevent anything, screws, etc from falling through.
  • @buddyboy4x44
    Most important advice would have been to plug both sinks to avoid dropping bits down into the pipes.
  • @fonzario
    Thanks a bunch. Went down to Ace and picked up a couple O rings and installed. Problem solved. Beats having to replace the entire faucet.
  • Really appreciate the links to the O Ring set and grease!
  • Bardzo za to dziękujemy! To najlepszy film na YouTube wyjaśniający, jak rozwiązać ten problem. To jest dokładnie to, czego potrzebowałem :)

    Not being the greatest fix-it man as I wasn't taught by my dad ; watching your video was most informative. Now I know what I need to fix the annoying leak is a set of rings and that silicone lubricant, I am going to search which hardware stores have these items , as we have Ace, Home Depot, and a Loews in my area. I'm still going to have to have some help from my Church brothers, though , as I have very bad arthritis in my joints. But I can at least get the materials we'll need for this easy project ! Thanks for your channel and clear, no-nonsense detailed step- by- step instructions, Sir. And thanks YouTube for posting this 😊.

    Very detailed. Thank you for sharing. This was a tremendous help😊.

    I'm so grateful for this video. We've been living with a minor leak for months because our faucet has a gold colored finish and they're very hard to find these days. I usually hate working on plumbing, but this went fine (other than the shutoff valves being frozen - glad my brother recommend Kroil). I I can't believe there was nothing in the manual for this faucet about these o-rings :(
  • @MrWigby
    Definitely trying this!! Awesome precise video
  • These mixers are great, so reliable and rarely leak. Run for decades no problems, don't know about the chinese cheapies but the older ones made in Australia are great.
  • @boykinlp
    Thanks for the easy instructions.
  • Excellent video! Thank you, need to do this exact thing.
  • @Priority57

  • @leew159
