When the tub is being filled, the shower starts dripping. I have attached a picture showing all three valves (knobs). Also the hot side valves drips even when fully closed. So it looks like I have something to fix in the middle valve and the hot side valve. I have seen a couple of you tube videos and kind of understand what's going on. All the amateurs out there, how difficult is this project? IMG_1124.JPGIMG_1125.JPG
 
It requires turning the water off and dealing with the shower valves.
Sometimes to do the work it requires special deep socket sets, made for shower valves. Sometimes not.
And then you will have to figure out what brand valves you have.
I do not recognize that trim.
 
I will look at it closely and see what brand it is. The other shower has Delta fixtures, so first guess would be Delta. From what I learned on youtube, you can just change out cartridges or do a rebuild. I have not priced out the cartridges, but that be a n easier way to get through it. The only other expense may be if the wife wants newer knobs spouts etc.
