How To Replace Tub Spout Without Diverter

Upgrade your bathroom's look with a straightforward DIY project: replacing a tub spout without a diverter. Plumbing may seem daunting, but this is one of the easiest tasks you can tackle. We'll guide you every step of the way!
Identify your spout type-threaded or slip-on-because removal and installation differ. For threaded spouts, grab a wrench and remember to wrap the spout in a cloth to prevent scratches. For slip-on types, locate the set screw underneath and loosen it with an Allen wrench.
Ensure your pipes are clean before installing the new spout, wrapping thread sealant (Teflon tape) if needed. Hand-tighten the spout first and then give it a slight extra twist with tools. For slip-on spouts, simply slide it on and secure the set screw.
Finally, turn on the water and check for leaks. This small, $30 investment with just 20 minutes of work offers a huge aesthetic boost to your bathroom. Master this beginner-friendly task and earn yourself bragging rights. Dive in and see how easy it is to feel like a home improvement pro!
