Thank you Mr. Livingston (Henry Bush Plumbing), your instructions were very clear and made a job I was dreading simple. This was my first leaky faucet repair, so I set up the laptop right next to the faucet and keep stopping it after each step to mimic your procedure. I can't thank you enough, it was a success!!!
I ordered my repair kit online and it came with no instructions so you saved me a big headache with all the extra parts that came with the kit for the different models, you explained everything perfectly! Thank you
Thank you so much. I have never rebuilt a faucet and thought the single handle would be a nightmare. I was ready to replace it with a two knob type till I saw your video. I returned the eighty dollar faucet in exchange for the twelve dollar rebuild kit and of course got most of my money back and now it works better than it did when I first bought it! Again thank you.
Thanks, Henry! I used this video about 3 years ago and it gave me great instructions. I'm just watching again to refresh my memory so I can change the seats and springs.
Thank you for this amazing video ... just finished replacing the inside parts for our Delta 200 faucet... she's about 60 years old... and works like a beauty!!
Thank you Wes and Henry Bush Plumbing for this video. I could never get my spout to come off, so I didn't think it would come of without going under the sink. My bad back can't handle that task so it just kept leaking for the past year. I needed to replace the o-rings because it would leak from the base of the spout when in use. After seeing you just pull the spout right off of the faucet, I sprayed silicone down thru top of spout area and moved it back and forth. Voila, it came off and I went to the hardware store with every part inside for replacement parts. $30 later and about a half hour of getting it all assembled properly, my Delta faucet works better and easier than it has in 15 years! I can't thank you enough for supplying us with this video. Thanks again Wes!!!!
Thank you so much! Christmas day the pipes froze. When we got them thawed my Delta kitchen faucets cold water was dripping. I wasn't sure if it could be repairedand was on my way to Lowes to buy a new faucet when I googled delta faucet repair your vid popped up. Your a lifesaver!
Excellent video. I watched someone else's video this moening and no mention was made of the cam washer until I saw your video. Went back and installed it. No leaks. Thanks.
I installed all new parts in my kitchen Delta faucet but I just hand tightened the cap assembly. The handle was really loose and very easy to move. There wasn't any leaking on any parts but, the handle had to be set back a bit or the spout would run a very light stream of water. So tomorrow I will use the wench and see what happens. Great video. Thanks! Oh! And by the way, my husband doesn't do any faucet repairs. LOL
Outstanding video, slow with good view of this. I think I can do this myself after watching your video. I have asked my husband for over a year to please fix my delta kitchen sink, Well I got tired of paying the extra money so why not fix it myself. Awsome.
Remember to tell your audience that the notch inside the housing lines up with the slot on the ball. It makes it easier for the novice. Also remind them that they will replacing parts on an old faucet that has calcium build up some things might feel like they are all seized up such as the set screw and the faucet arm. Good video all in all.
I really appreciate the help this video provided. As mentioned in another comment, having the video be in focus would make it even better, I'm not sure why the person taking the video could not tell that a vast majority was out of focus...blurry. Thank you though, this was still helpful.
thank you henry bush. this video helped me out. i was getting super frustrated w changing my seat washers in my sink bc it was dripping. i didnt know until i watched this video that after you change the seat washers you must use the flat wrench to tighten the cap back on the faucet. the instructions in the seat washer case says hand tighten , but they were wrong you must tighten w a wrench
Thanks for the video. Great guidance. A little attention to focus of some of the camera shots to provide clearer pictures at times, but very helpful in showing the steps and explaining things to do/keep in mind.
Thank you so much from us, too! You just saved us at least $90.00 and my hubby's ego! No leak! We've been having a pot under the faucet, then worried that they didn't provide the instructions when we bought the repair kit. Didn't need the ball; but this was SO GREAT! Thanks
OMG Wes! I followed your instructions and fixed my facet. I can't believe how simple and easy it was to fix! I have a wall mount Peerless/Delta facet. To find another comparable wall mount facet is impossible and Delta discontinued this model. I would have had to buy a standard two handled wall mount facet and do some construction and painting. Thanks to you I saved hundreds of dollars and time. It took me about 15 minutes to fix the facet. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!
The kit I ordered directly from Delta did not include a new ball or the lubricant. I re-used the old ball and regular automotive grease. Followed this video step-by step, pausing it between steps. Piece of cake. Works like a charm.
Thanks Wes. I did it in under 15 minutes. I needed a little lube on teh black washers to get them to seat and getting the white thing in the slot at the end was a trick but other than that it went really smooth. Thanks again.
I purchased the parts shown in this video; followed along and did the same thing here at my home. Worked perfectly, no more leaking. Not being a plumber handyman this video was excellent and resulted in another job of the list. Thanks for the well laid out steps, only thing I didn't bother to chnage were the 2 spout rings under the handle body itself. Forgot to buy them :(, anyway they didn't effect the leaking at all.
Thanks for posting this video.. I was just replacing the same part in a shower valve and I didn't notice how the springs and valve seats were installed when I took it apart. Watched your video and BLAM, there was my mistake.. thanks again!!
It is nice being shown tutorials on a new faucet, but I have a 12 year Delta Lewiston single lever kitchen faucet that had a bound up (stiff) hub that would not rotate. I think it was originally installed with a very tiny leak that finally caused enough mineral deposits to bind up the hub rotation. It took me 6 hours to fix due to the scale and mineral deposits, but here are some tips. There were enough mineral deposits in the set screw handle that it caused the Allen wrench key to begin bending so much I thought it might break. So I tilted the handle back, added a piece of tape over the bottom half of the set screw hole, and filled it to the top of the tape with penetrating oil. After 30 minutes it still would not budge, so I made fashioned an extension for the Allen key by slipping a long thin hex socket wrench over it. That worked. Next - the plastic dress cap was welded so badly with mineral deposits that it would not easily rotate off. It has internal sprocket holes rather than normal external wrench flats, and I didn’t have a spanner. So I tried a strap wrench. That just slipped off since the cap is domed shaped, so I tried a layer of super grip fabric under the strap wrench, which did not work either. I then checked the web and found a hint that tapping it first would free it. That seemed silly, but I wacked it anyway with the plastic handle of my screwdriver, and low and behold - that did do the trick. I thought the hub might just slip off up over the valve bonnet, but was unable to do this, so spent the next two hours trying to unscrew the valve bonnet with all its mineral deposit welds. My big adjustable wrench just mangled the brass flats, so I opted for a pipe wrench. However there was so much mineralization on the threads, that the pipe wrentch starting turning the entire faucet body. I tried tightening the mounting nut under the sink, but that did not help. So I stuck a big screwdriver down the faucet wand hole in the hub, and applied counter torque in the opposite direction as I rotated the bonnet with the pipe wrench. That slowly did the trick, and was able to unscrew the bonnet after 15 minutes, and remove the valve cartridge. I thought the hub would just slip up over that, but it was stuck solid. After another hour of rocking it back and forth, inserting a putty knife into the bottom of the hub and prying it up with a screw driver, and inserting a screwdriver into the other side of the bottom and rotating it to add more leverage, it finally pulled up and off. It took another half hour using a wire brush and a Dremel tool grinder to remove all the scale and mineralization that was built up in the hub. And had to scrape a lot of black stuff off the internal valve bracket that the hub fits over. I cleaned off the threads, o-rings, and viring (the v is narrower at the top when you drop back onto the bonnet). I slathered silicon grease over all threads, rings, and gaskets. Then reassembled. It leaked a bit the first time I tried it, so I removed the dress cap and tightened the bonnet a bit more, which seemed to do the trick. All in all it probably would have been cheaper time-wise to just install a new fixture, but that would admit defeat. And none of the parts were actually corroded since they were all brass and chrome and plastic. The Delta Lewiston was well made (and made in USA). I don’t think I would have had any problems if the original installer had noticed and fixed the tiny leak.
I think I am facing the same issue with my bathroom sink faucet. Its a delta brand single handle (acrylic - looks like glass, is transparent) faucet. It opens up from the top by removing the plastic cover cap and removing one screw. After that I am unable to budge the plastic dress cap. Reading this gives me an idea that mine probably is also stuck for similar reasons as I noticed lots of green/orange stuff around the faucet assembly. Thanks for sharing your experience in such detail
OMG, I went through the same thing you did! At every turn, everything was stuck and corroded but I would not admit defeat and spent countless hours (appx 8-10) taking apart the faucet, then cleaning all the corrosion only to find out (in the end) that the replacement parts didn't quite fit. I thought I was doing something wrong so I disassembled and reassembled multiple times then went to the store and bought Delta replacement parts instead of Danco but the cam still didn't quite fit right. The original cam assembly looked exactly like the one in the video but I could not for the life of me find those exact parts. When I finally managed to reassemble the faucet despite the bulging cam assembly, the handle didn't shut off the cold water as it should so I had a to cock the handle to the right to shut off the water. After all this, within 2 days, the spout developed a pinhole causing a miniature geyser 🙄, that's when I knew I had to throw in the towel but wanted to stop the geyser until I could find a replacement faucet so I proceeded to try silicone to plug the pinholes, that didn't work so I moved on to Marine epoxy, small beads of water ran down the spout so I wrapped the area with Teflon tape which somewhat helped mitigate the small drip. I am now in possession of a Peerless faucet which looks similar to my old Delta and pray that the installation will go smoothly. Lesson learned, don't mess with a forty-year-old fixture, the manufacturer probably no longer makes the correct parts to rebuild it. On the bright side, I can now rebuild a Delta faucet with my eyes closed! 😂
BTW, I had to saturate every thing with WD-40 and let sit for 30 minutes to an hour in order to first disassemble the handle, then the bonnet, followed by the cam and ball and finally the spout which was the worst. I of course then had to clean and flush the toxic substance from the parts I had to reuse. I realize this was an insane project but I just didn't want to give up.
All - some helpful additional advice is that when you install the ball valve, make sure to align the slit on the ball with the small peg protruding from the housing. Thank you for the video! Very we'll done and tremendously helpful!!
Thank you. I missed a few parts on a repair the first time. Now its done right. FYI, staff ask if you need assistance all the time when going to lowes or Home Depot.
Thanks. Worked like a charm with the $8 delta faucet repair kit that came with the delta tool ... but not the ball. Repair seems to be working find without a new ball.
Great video! I used your video to fix my kitchen sink faucet. It works great now! By the way, yours is the only video that I saw that talks about lubing around the O-rings . Thanks again for a great video!
Nice video! only two things changed. The Allen wrench tool supplied was one size to small or the wrench itself stripped out. Next was I used a large crescent wrench instead. Other wise I followed your instructions exactly. Thank you for posting.
This proved very helpful to me as I had to fix my kitchen faucet, today. The only thing that could be mentioned is the alignment of the ball stem, but I figured that out. Thanks!
If you don't grease the seals at the ball you won't be happy with the repair. I was going to replace the faucet but someone told me about the grease. On the 4th repair (over a 10 year period on my Mothers faucet) it works perfectly now. The genuine Delta seals and springs may have helped too. I also greased the side of the seals so they can move in their bores freely. Live and learn. Grease your seals.
Thank you so much for this excellent video! I was able to fix the kitchen faucet within a few minutes, yet I have very little experience fixing plumbing-related things in the house.
Two things I'd have liked for you to have included: lining up the ball correctly, and which way the springs go in, i.e. wide end down or narrow end down. Still an excellent video, and made the job really easy. Thanks.
This video is extremely helpful to understand the steps. My question is what to do if spout does not come so easily as you have demonstrated in your video?
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Kitchen sink was leaking for a long time and thought it was going to be a more involved process of removing the notes from underneath. Video helped tremendously and had it fixed within 10 minutes.
Thanks! Nice instructional video. I need to fix the leaking kitchen faucet and this was a great refresher. I appreciate your slow and simple comments focused on the process at hand. Too many of the DIY videos have an unnecessary and confusing narrative, not to mention the presenter's weird ego trips. My only criticism was the camera focus got lost on the closeups ...
awesome dude! i was losing my mind trying to get this done! also, on mine the allen set screw was hidden behind a red and blue delta symbol! might want to mention that.
Amazing video, although at first it didnt make any sence to me, meaning i did not think simply by replacing those springs and a ball would make any difference, but after following your instructions, It feels like I got a brand new kitchem faucet without making mess or involving costy plumbers. Thank you so much for such a detailed video A+++
I just tried to replace my o rings and the faucet still leaks.......I'm with you whole-heartedly R Remund, I tried to watch the video to see what I did wrong, I had to quit watching , it was making my eye hurt
Thanks a bunch. Really well done video , simple and made the job super easy. One thing If I may- I found that I had to align the line on the ball to the grove on the right side.
Thanks for this very detailed and helpful set of instructions. I probably saved half an hour by watching the video first and lining up my tools before repairing the faucet. Using the dental pick was a great suggestion. I happened to already have a worn out pick that I got from my dentist a few years ago when I had a project to remove old grout between tiles.

I did it! Thank you for taking the time to post this video. You saved me about a $100. I'm a 73 old grandmother and every penny counts!
Excellent! Clearly explained, exactly my faucet assembly so I replaced it easily. Thanks for producing this how-to video.
My mom just repaired our kitchen faucet and it didn't take but 15 mins. Great video. It works like a charm now. Thanks so much so making this video!
Great video! Delta sent me a free repair kit and the instructions were terrible. Your video saved me!
Outstanding video, slow with good view of this. I think I can do this myself after watching your video. I have asked my husband for over a year to please fix my delta kitchen sink, Well I got tired of paying the extra money so why not fix it myself. Awsome.
Thanks so much for the video - helped me get this fixed for $2.67..... which was huge for us right now!
I followed step by step and it came out perfectly.....Thanks for this how-to video. Peace from New Orleans!!

Also remind them that they will replacing parts on an old faucet that has calcium build up some things might feel like they are all seized up such as the set screw and the faucet arm.

Although this was videoed many years ago, it is still relevant and extremely helpful three thumbs up

you rock mister! i hate calling someone for this. i feel so inept. this was the easiest thing to watch and do! thanks so much!
thank you henry bush. this video helped me out. i was getting super frustrated w changing my seat washers in my sink bc it was dripping. i didnt know until i watched this video that after you change the seat washers you must use the flat wrench to tighten the cap back on the faucet. the instructions in the seat washer case says hand tighten , but they were wrong you must tighten w a wrench
Very thorough and clear explanation. I wish all youtube instructionals were this detailed. Great job.
Thanks for the video. Great guidance. A little attention to focus of some of the camera shots to provide clearer pictures at times, but very helpful in showing the steps and explaining things to do/keep in mind.
This video is AWESOME!!
I became a pro from watching your detailed steps 💪👍👍👍
Thank you 👊🫶
Thank you so much from us, too! You just saved us at least $90.00 and my hubby's ego!
No leak! We've been having a pot under the faucet, then worried that they didn't provide the instructions when we bought the repair kit.

Well done! 11 years later, still relevant!
The kit I ordered directly from Delta did not include a new ball or the lubricant. I re-used the old ball and regular automotive grease. Followed this video step-by step, pausing it between steps. Piece of cake. Works like a charm.
Automotive grease is not edible!
Very helpful, even with the blurry close-up shots.
Thank you, hubby was cussing up a storm, this video saved me from a head ache.
I followed this video last year and worked out great to fix my leaky kitchen tap. Thanks for that.
Thanks Wes. I did it in under 15 minutes. I needed a little lube on teh black washers to get them to seat and getting the white thing in the slot at the end was a trick but other than that it went really smooth.
Thanks again.

Awesome, thanks for the step by step. I replaced the washers and springs and fixed the problem first time!
My delta faucet is doing this same thing. I will try fixing myself with this video. Thank you!!!
All - some helpful additional advice is that when you install the ball valve, make sure to align the slit on the ball with the small peg protruding from the housing.
Thank you for the video! Very we'll done and tremendously helpful!!
I'm desperate to stop my dripping faucet and you demonstration made me want to try it my self! Heading to store to get supplies now! Thanks!
Thank you! My friend and I just fixed her faucet by following your directions! Excellent! It doesn't leak and works great! :)
Thank you. I missed a few parts on a repair the first time. Now its done right. FYI, staff ask if you need assistance all the time when going to lowes or Home Depot.
Thanks. Worked like a charm with the $8 delta faucet repair kit that came with the delta tool ... but not the ball. Repair seems to be working find without a new ball.
Great video. Very helpful. Thanks so very much for the kitchen faucet repair instructions.
Great video! I used your video to fix my kitchen sink faucet. It works great now! By the way, yours is the only video that I saw that talks about lubing around the O-rings . Thanks again for a great video!
Saved me a Saturday plumbing call; very good instruction and even I was able to get this correct. Thanks.
Thanks for your very easy to follow instructions. It was a snap to repair my faucet!
Nice video! only two things changed. The Allen wrench tool supplied was one size to small or the wrench itself stripped out. Next was I used a large crescent wrench instead. Other wise I followed your instructions exactly. Thank you for posting.
It's probably also a good idea to put a stopper in the sink before you begin.
At least turn the water off.
Or cover the drain with a towel
Great video -- just replaced the parts in my Delta Faucet tonight!
Great video. Easy to follow. Did the job in 15 min.
thank you Craig,appreciate that advice.I will take it apart again and push it down more into place.
Thanks to Bush Plumbing and Wes. Good job.
This proved very helpful to me as I had to fix my kitchen faucet, today. The only thing that could be mentioned is the alignment of the ball stem, but I figured that out. Thanks!
Thanks, my wife took it apart then asked me to figure out how to put it back together. You saved the day!
A useful video by a good-looking gent. You can't go wrong. Thanks!
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Well I guess I know how to do that now. Really detailed and complete. Nice timing to absorb each part.
Very good presentation Thanks for sharing and saving many money 💰 God Bless you and your BUSSINESS!
My husband is handsome, not handy, but thanks to your video tutorial, we managed to fix our leaky faucet. Thanks!
If you don't grease the seals at the ball you won't be happy with the repair. I was going to replace the faucet but someone told me about the grease. On the 4th repair (over a 10 year period on my Mothers faucet) it works perfectly now. The genuine Delta seals and springs may have helped too. I also greased the side of the seals so they can move in their bores freely. Live and learn. Grease your seals.
Great video! I followed it all step by step as shown here and repaired my first faucet!
Thank you so much for this excellent video! I was able to fix the kitchen faucet within a few minutes, yet I have very little experience fixing plumbing-related things in the house.
Excellent, only thing missing was the grunge around the old parts, thanks.
Two things I'd have liked for you to have included: lining up the ball correctly, and which way the springs go in, i.e. wide end down or narrow end down. Still an excellent video, and made the job really easy. Thanks.
Excellent, thank you so much. Got my faucet fixed properly, and it no longer drips.
Thanks very much for posting this video. Very helpful - my faucet no longer leaks!
Mine leaked from the tap itself. Nowhere else. So I just replaced the springs and little rubber cup-things. $2.08 at Lowes. No leaks! Thanks.
Very helpful. I have the same faucet. Thanks for posting this video
Excellent explanations and workflow. Thanks.
Thanks for your great video. Now it's time to fix my sink faucet.
Thank you Mr. Bush! You saved me at least $70!
Thanks! fixed the leaky faucet, now, to the next chore on the honey do list.
Thank you for this video Mr. Bush.
This video is extremely helpful to understand the steps.
My question is what to do if spout does not come so easily as you have demonstrated in your video?
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Kitchen sink was leaking for a long time and thought it was going to be a more involved process of removing the notes from underneath. Video helped tremendously and had it fixed within 10 minutes.
Thanks! Nice instructional video. I need to fix the leaking kitchen faucet and this was a great refresher. I appreciate your slow and simple comments focused on the process at hand. Too many of the DIY videos have an unnecessary and confusing narrative, not to mention the presenter's weird ego trips. My only criticism was the camera focus got lost on the closeups ...
Thanks so much!!!! This video saved me lots of cash because I was able to repair my dripping kitchen faucet myself. :)
Great video. I now have the knowledge to give it a shot myself.
Thank you so much! You helped a girl change her own faucet 😁
THERE YOU GO GIRL GOOD TO HEAR ANYONE CAN DO THESE THINGZ USE TECHNOLOGY TO LEARN AND SAVE YOUR MONEY 💰!
awesome dude! i was losing my mind trying to get this done! also, on mine the allen set screw was hidden behind a red and blue delta symbol! might want to mention that.
Amazing video, although at first it didnt make any sence to me, meaning i did not think simply by replacing those springs and a ball would make any difference, but after following your instructions, It feels like I got a brand new kitchem faucet without making mess or involving costy plumbers. Thank you so much for such a detailed video A+++
Allen wrench trick alone was worth subscribe.. thumbs up 👍🏻
Thanks for the info, but DAMN! I would probably make sure my video was in focus and edited before I broadcast it to the world
I just tried to replace my o rings and the faucet still leaks.......I'm with you whole-heartedly R Remund, I tried to watch the video to see what I did wrong, I had to quit watching , it was making my eye hurt
Don't forget about alignment of the little slot on the ball with the pin on the side, as mentioned below by Greg. I've made that mistake before!
Thanks so much, you gave great directions and it made fast work of the job!
Much appreciated. Did it myself and saved the visit from a plumber. Works like new now
Yay! I just did it, too! Thank you Mr. Henry Bush.
Nicely done...thank you!
There was one minor problem with seating the ball valve.
Thanks a bunch. Really well done video , simple and made the job super easy. One thing If I may- I found that I had to align the line on the ball to the grove on the right side.
Thanks for this very detailed and helpful set of instructions. I probably saved half an hour by watching the video first and lining up my tools before repairing the faucet. Using the dental pick was a great suggestion. I happened to already have a worn out pick that I got from my dentist a few years ago when I had a project to remove old grout between tiles.
Great video! Information is presented in a deliberate and understandable manner. I was able to face a much dreaded repair. DONE. :)
Was a Great help just repaired ours today Thanks
Thank you so much! All I had to do to repair my faucet was watch this video, remove everything, and then reset everything!
This is a very good video, that would have been a GREAT video if the focus was better. The narrative made up for a lot. Thanks for sharing!
You should mention that the springs go in with the wider end down, so that the seat is on the narrower end.
Nice video. Thanks. I'll go fix that faucet now.
Thank you. A good refresher.
Great Video Henry. Very helpful. Thank you very much!
Thank you very much for the video! You saved me over $60. You rock dude!
