    I am an old retired widow on a fixed income. After being given estimates from plumbers of $300 and $200 I decided to search TH-cam for a better solution. I just want to say "Thank you so much" to the fellow on this video. I never imagined it could be something so simple as replacing seatings and springs because the others told me various things like "I'd hate to break into your tile...I'll have to access the panel in the bedroom and saw through those 2x4s that are in the way" or "you need to go buy a new faucet w/handle". All I spent was $7.00 total! You, sir, are a godsend.

      My wife just asked a random plumber she saw in the neighborhood to come check our same style faucet with a leak. He said the wall has to be torn open and wood added to keep the pipe from moving .. total rip off , I’m going to give this a shot. Thanks for the motivation!

    Wow bro! I do DIYs of everything but plumbing! I just worry that things would leak. I had put this leaky faucet off for a bit. My plumber friend said it could be costly and we had some renovations in mind so I let it linger. Then I felt I should give it a shot..boom! Your video. You made it look easy. I gambked the parts from Canadian Tire for about 9 bucks. I loosened it realized not same as yours but I figured it out...it turned out to be the easiest DIY I have done. I thank God for you! Just had to drop this note... Thank you, all glory to God!

    As a home owner that does a lot of my own repairs, this is one the best how too videos I have seen. You do not assume or skip steps like a lot of terrible and lazy instructors in this world and as far as detail, he stresses how to put the rings back in, make sure the springs are properly inserted etc. And finally, beautiful camera angles. Tutoring and teaching is an art, and requires hard work and attention to detail. A lot of people do not know how to communicate because of apathy and laziness, this video is not that, but instead a gift: thank you so much and I will subscribe

      I agree, just the detailed explanation of how to insert the springs and the idea of using the screwdriver to guide the assembly into place would have saved me much time and agony when I first tried to change this type of washer.

    Great video for an easy 15 minute fix. Ordered the parts on Amazon for $4 for 2 seats and 2 springs and the tub no longer leaks. We had a peerless faucet 88700 series which was slightly different from the video. I googled peerless 88700 series diagram and found out that our faucet was slightly different from the one in the video. The seats and springs were not in the wall. They were in the actual faucet housing which came apart with a quick 90 degree turn. Replaced both seats and springs in the housing and put it all back together. No more leaking! Helpful hint: Take a picture and line up the parts on the floor as you go so you remember how it all goes back together. Thank you for this video!

      Not sure if you've fixed your issue or not, if not here's my advice. I had a can of liquid wrench so I sprayed some in there and let it soak for about 20 min. Still didn't budge, tried a 2nd round and after some elbow grease I was able to crack through the hard water deposits and loosen the screw. Now I've read other forums where people said they've let the liquid wrench soak over night and they couldn't crack it and recommended PB blaster. So either one should work in my opinion, just let it soak and then use good old strength and it should loosen for you.

      @@terryjackson3424 Some guy actually did a scientific test where he tightened down the same size bolts, on the same size nuts, using a torque wrench to ensure they were all equally tightened. He then used some sort of digital meter to record the amount of torque required to break each loose after spraying each individual nut/bolt with wd40, liquid wrench, pb blaster and a bunch of others. The liquid wrench actually "worked" the best as it required the least amount of force to remove. So stick with liquid wrench.

      Ive done Drains, Dishwashers, Washing machines, sinks, toilets, hot water tanks... But never one of these guys (always dealt with the Hot & Cold Faucets). So it was quite Intimidating... But...
      Just did ANOTHER one! :D Part was 20 years old (Delta 1400 series RP19804 this time). Took off the 'Vanity Plate' to keep mind of how hard I was sawing the handle off (face it, the likelihood of it actually Unscrewing is next to zero) by looking at the piping movements (Things can bend, break, etc) if I wasnt holding the pipe assembly steady.
      (New Handle, I know... 15 bucks more to spend :/ )
      The Bonnet Nut was next, not a major challenge (luckily for me), just patience.
      Then out comes the Cartridge, right? HA! f***ing just separates into a good 3 dozen pieces. It was hell digging it out (the most time consuming part of the repair).
      But once it was out, cleaned, the replacement Cartridge lubed... Damn! Night & Day difference! Like brand new! All thanks to YOUR wise words guys. I appreciate the help & Confidence you gave me on the project. :)
      Wife is happy too. LOL
