Summary: Learn how to install a stem seat for a leaky bathtub faucet by watching this series of free home improvement videos from our home repair expert.
"Hi this is Jon on behalf of Expert Village in this video clip we will be installing our new seats. Now when you go to buy your new stem you need to make sure that you buy the exact same stem as the one you took out. Any other type will not fit or will not seal properly. Our stem included a seat in the box not all boxes may not have a seat in it. So you want to be sure and check for that when you buy it. When we install our new seat our first step is to put it on the end of our wrench and then we're going to carefully position it in place and screw it in. Remember righty tighty lefty loosey and your going to want to make sure this is good and tight."
