Thank you for the info. I replaced the "cartridge / Stem " with the new all plastic one from Home depot. I cleaned out the rubber seat female socket with vinegar and a rifle cleaning brush. The seat itself has no corrosion or other damage. The new seal is a tight fit into the female socket. The...

Vanity sink faucet. Been great for 20 years but has developed a very slow drip. I've taken a close look at the faucet but have no idea how to take it apart. It is not obvious. The valves do feel like they are cartridge type as they only need to turn 90 degrees from closed to fully open Thank...

Now several hours later the very slow drip has returned. Does this valve body have replaceable seats? If so, is it an Allan wrench type tool needed to remove it?

A neighbor has a Moen shower mixing valve that is frozen in place and very hard t oturn. She asked me to look at it. After removing the locking clip ( a piece of copper wire someone installed) I cannot get it to budge. I'm afraid I'll brake the water lines if I pull on it any harder. I was...

I can't seem to find a long handle valve seat reseater tool for a Frost/Freeze proof outside faucet. I need one that is at least one foot long. Any ideas who may have one for sale? Thank you
