You may have convinced yourself that your leaky faucet really doesn't bother you. All you have to do is run a fan at night to block out the drip-drop sounds and you go right to sleep. Or do you? Perhaps you don't hear the sound anymore, but the idea that you are avoiding the problem continues to nag you as if the water torture had moved inside of your head. Getting a plumber to come fix the problem would cost a fortune and you don't know a thing about faucet repair. So where does that leave you? Miserable, that's where, every bit as much of a drip as the drops falling into your bathtub. That is unless you take some initiative and learn how to fix the faucet yourself.
Our home repair expert Jon Olsen will talk you through every step of the bathtub faucet repair process. In concise and easy-to-follow free videos he demonstrates how to turn off your water main, then remove handles, trim and collars from the faulty faucet. In no time at all, you'll have that drip-drop cured and then you can go back to sleeping soundly again.
