wild1145 here are some advice on how to make sure this leak never happen again:
-
Twist the valve under your sink to turn off the water supply. If there aren’t individual shutoff valves under the sink, shut off the water supply for the house.
-
Turn on the faucet and leave open to allow the remaining water in the line to empty into the sink.
-
If there is a set screw behind the handle, insert a hex key or Allen wrench into the screw and turn it to remove. If the handle has a top screw cover, pry it off with a flat screwdriver and set aside. Then, use a Phillips head screwdriver to loosen the screw underneath the cover.
-
Pull the handle free. If the handle has a cap, remove it with a flat head screwdriver. Use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the handle.
-
Remove the faceplate behind the handle from the shower wall. If it has threads, unscrew the faceplate from the wall and remove it.
-
Find the metal sleeve over the shower valve. Pull it off or unscrew it. If the shower valve has a locking clip, pry it off with needle nose pliers or a screwdriver.
-
Using a wrench, loosen the packing nut in the handle assembly, then remove and set aside.
-
Gently pull the part straight up and out of the assembly.
-
Clean and dry the area around the handle and all the parts with a cloth.
-
Inspect the O-rings around the housing. Replace any that look damaged or worn.
-
Insert the new cartridge or stem, making sure it is aligned correctly.
-
Once you’ve installed the new cartridge or stem, return to the previous steps and reattach the faucet handle. Turn your water line back on and remove any debris or towels from your sink.
