Thanks Roger! It’s probably been thirty years since I repaired a sink faucet. I just needed to see how the damn thing comes apart. Mine was a little different but not so much that it made it difficult. Your tutorial was perfect.
I learn something new every day! My dad was a plumber but passed away before he could teach me all these things. Thank goodness for gentlemen like yourself! Fixed my faucet and saved some much needed cash!
Thanks buddy! Fixed my faucet in 15 mins, first video in the list when searching "Fix my two lever leaky faucet", plumbers and faucet manufactures beware, with videos like this more people are going to be doing it themselves and not just buying new ones! :)
Roger, you saved my bacon! I have the exact same faucet set and got down to the part for removing the valve insets but mine just wouldn't budge. So I was concerned about pulling too hard...maybe some threads involved but your demo confirmed the valve insets were just jammed and I screwed the top phillips screw back in the top of the inset and pulled on that. Finally after a lot of huffing and puffing the valve insets came out. Much appreciate your video.
Thank you boss! My stem was built into my handle and all I did was follow your instructions and removed the stem and installed the stem and tightened it up manually then added the handle cover back on last! Like brand new! Thanks for the video! Much help!
I got two free cartridges from Moen under their Lifetime Guarantee but the instructions didn't cover my faucet design while your video did perfectly. Thank-you for sharing!
Wow, yea - perfect! This is my exact Moen sink, and this morning, I noticed the hot and cold water handles on my kitchen sink (which has only been in my kitchen a couple of years) seem loose and wiggly. I think, thanks to your video, that I can repair this myself!
Roger, Thank you so much for posting this video. It was so helpful. It just so happens that I have this exact Moen faucet and it was leaking like crazy. I saw your video and figured it needed new cartridges model 2412 and did the job myself. Thanks so much again !!!
I have that same faucet. I was ready to replace the cartridges, but upon taking it apart, realized the whole handle had corroded... so have to replace the whole faucet. I was lifting up the whole sink trying to lift off the handle after taking out the screw.
I know this says 9 years ago…but I have an older kitchen sink that has these handles with the philips screws. I cannot get the screws out to remove the handle, so they must be rusted in there. How do I get them out?
I need to know how to fix the faucet part in the center where the water comes out. Mine is leaking both above at the base and below the sink. Any ideas?
When you pulled that thingy out it looked just like mine. When you say if it don't fix leak then replace the faucet. Do you mean the whole sink faucet or just the thing you pulled out with the O rings on it?
I have notice that most of the repairs I have seen are on the lock off side of the faucet what about the part that swings from sink to sink I have a faucet that is leaking between the spaces,can you help. Thank you.
Can somebody help me? My old faucet is shaped the same way; 2 handles, but there are no screws on the handle.....how do i get it off then? Or can you recommend another video to watch?
I have a squeaky faucet, but cannot get it apart. Need some advice. I got the handle off, but when I try turning the metal nut above the escutcheon, the whole escutcheon turns, along with the hoses attached beneath the sink. Could not remove the escutcheon, so I aborted the project. Any advice?
Roger is there anyway you could tell me what model and series number this faucet is. I have the same one and need to buy replacement parts . Thank you!
I think I found it on Moen's site. If I'm right, it's Model: CA87876... (discontinued). It's a Lexie Chrome Two-Handle High Arc Kitchen Faucet. Check the photo at: www.moen.com/support/Lexie/Lexie_Chrome_twohandle_high_arc_kitchen_faucet/CA87876 to make sure it's the right model. (Hope that helps.)
It would have been nice if the camera person would have zoomed when you were explaining certain things. I needed all the visual help I could get. 😂 😁👍 Thanks anyway 💛
Usually American Standard or Moen would send you a complete pair of cartridges to replace a leak, with nothing saying about rings. This guy just took off the rings and put them back on again as far as I could tell.
I don't get it...what did he repair? He removed the 2 "O" rings and replaced them again and that fixed the leak? i thought he would have at least replaced those old rings with new ones.
+Anthony You are correct, but I trust that if was doing a repair, rather than a quick "how to" demo, he would have replaced them with new "O" rings. Also, might as well do the other one at the same time.
Hear is something that you may need to know.. THE CAPS ON THE TOP OF THE HANDLES MAY NEED TO BE SCREWED OFF,,, mine did... now I have even less hair...😲
If he is a Home Repair guy then I really hope this isn't his house. Apart from the grunge around the faucet, look at both electrical outlets. Really smart to have them out like that, especially around water... what could go wrong? Also, look at the big coil on the stove in front. The metal bowl/ring is missing. That is what stops chucks of shit from ending up under the heating elements and on top of the oven.

Had an 18 year old model faucet at my beach house. Helped tremendously on repair. Thank you very much.
I looked at a lot of videos - yours was by far the BEST!! Thank you!

Thank you for sharing. This video has helped me a lot.
Great simple explanation! Good job
Oh my goodness, excellent video. Crud build-up in the gooseneck faucet we have in our kitchen was the problem. Thank you so much.
Thanks! My handles were loose and wobbly, so your awesome video helped me figure out how to get to the screw to tighten it. Fixed. Yay!!!

Thank you so much for this! I was able to replace the faucet stem without any problems. You rock.
Very nice video, saved me a weekend plumbing repair bill!
Didn’t take long to fix at all
Thanks a bunch 👍👍
good video roger
Great video! Thank you!
What do I do if the part directly under the handle won't come off? 4:00
I get it and I will try this on my sink! Wish me the best!
Just what I needed!
Thanks for the tips. Well done.
I have that same faucet. I was ready to replace the cartridges, but upon taking it apart, realized the whole handle had corroded... so have to replace the whole faucet. I was lifting up the whole sink trying to lift off the handle after taking out the screw.
Did you replace just the black rings or the whole cartridge?
Hey roger I kinda feel like you are the bob ross of plumbing 🤣
I totally thought the same thing!
Why did the leak stop when you didn't replace the gaskets?
What if the screw head is stuck with sediment?
I know this says 9 years ago…but I have an older kitchen sink that has these handles with the philips screws. I cannot get the screws out to remove the handle, so they must be rusted in there. How do I get them out?
Can the O-rings in the center goose neck be replaced or does the goose neck need to be replaced with the new O-rings already in place?
Can you tell me which moen model# please I have the same one and need parts.
I need to know how to fix the faucet part in the center where the water comes out. Mine is leaking both above at the base and below the sink. Any ideas?
How do I fix the middle of the faucet if its leaking at the base of the spout same exact faucet?
That’s what I’ve been trying to find as well
When you pulled that thingy out it looked just like mine. When you say if it don't fix leak then replace the faucet. Do you mean the whole sink faucet or just the thing you pulled out with the O rings on it?

What do i do if i removed caps on top of handles but dont see a screw?
Can somebody help me? My old faucet is shaped the same way; 2 handles, but there are no screws on the handle.....how do i get it off then? Or can you recommend another video to watch?
How can I unscrew the rusted? I think I have a old two handle sink and the screws are rusted so how can I unscrew them?
White vinegar frees it up
Thank you! I'll pick up some little gaskets and fix that drip.
Why did you put the same old O-rings back on the valve?

He didn't fix or replace anything?
O-rings
I'm trying to change kitchen faucet from two handles to one
Awesome, is that microwave still working? the 1981 sanyo? Your stove is freaking cool.
I like the way the tile stops halfway of the electrical outlet. Bad measuring or poor planning?

Thanks.
Thank you, Roger, my husband is gonna have to take me out for steak tonight.

This faucet is the moen banbury, model 87399. Here is the link: www.moen.com/support/Banbury/Banbury_Chrome_twohandle_high_arc_kitchen_faucet/87399
I have a faucet that has no visible way to take the handles off. There are no scews no nuts
Can't stop staring at the terribly recessed outlet plates
You dont need to buy a whole new faucet if the stem repair didn't work ,, you can just replace the water stem with a new water stem
Would be nice to describe the problem first before repairing.
Two--handle sink also known as a faucet
Looks simple, I'm following the directions, but water still doesn't come out,.,.,
Apparently, cleaning the calcium build up and the black crud is out of the question.
Roger, why did you stopped filming when you took the cartrage off and when you put it back, the most important thing, the rest anyone can do it!!!
Helpful....
Your diverter valve is bad. It needs to be replaced.
Don't use pliers on bright or finished parts!
good video, but some one needs to learn how to install electrical boxes
😎👍🏻
No more wet bacon!
Its's not a sink. It's a faucet.

Let me get this straight.. all you did was pull it out take the seals off, look at it an put it back together? This should be ez
Must be a slum lord rental. Terrible tile work, outlet covers not tight to the wall. Lick it Stick it work !
