KISS - keep it simple and short. Thank you sir.
💯💯💯
Great video. Way simpler than replacing whole faucet!
Here we have a main valve inside the house. That's why you normally don't have to shut off the outside main valve...
God this video saved me so much time and money. I was about to replace the whole spiget and have to remove some brick work. Thank you so much for this quick and informative video!
Great video. Your advice helped me stop the leak on my spigot. Thank you
How do you know what type and size of washer to get? I have one that’s dripping
@@cwc8979you can measure it, measure the hole in the middle too. Or, even easier, take it out and bring it with you to the hardware store.
Took care my problem today with this video. Thanks!
Thanks! I had to replace the O-rings on the vacuum breaker for mine, and it kept dripping. This video showed me exactly what to do. I appreciate you!
it is easy if you know where to look. Mine was missing both a screw and the washer.
Went to Lowes and grab a washer kit, then find a screw short 18-24 screw. (i could be wrong about the number)

Thank you so much it worked
How do you know what type and size of washer to get?
Go to your local hardware store and present them the corroded washer. They can find you one of the same size and then simply replace it using the steps in the video
Thank you. It was so helpful.
Very helpful thanks for the video
Thank you!
Thank you

Just saves me a lot of money, a simple wrench turn solved the problem! Thank you for this video!

Question for whoever sees, how long did it take you to get a general grasp of plumbing?
I’m a 16 year old who wants plumbing as my career but for me things seem so complicated plus my memory of small details isn’t the greatest but not horrible, it just makes me worry a bit.
Thanks to who ever answers :)
Don't give up. Keep watching videos. Make notes, like you're in a class. and try to get some hands on experience whenever and wherever you can.
(I'm still trying to learn it myself.)
Also, besides videos - - read articles too.
Can you just put a cap?
to stop it from dripping
would that be OK?
Big box and plumbing don't carry replacement gaskets... they all told me replace the silcock
Good info.
If water is dripping from the bib, tightening the pack nut won’t stop the dripping. The packing nut only stop dripping or water intrusion on the handle stem. The guy did show how to remove the entire assembly from the bib to replace the washer seal. But he was completely wrong in tightening the packing nut to stop a bib drip.
How about talking about fixing a modern fronts free spigot - not these ancient ones?
So you're living under a bridge and some asked 'what's your story' to which you reply 'it was a leaky faucet'.
And of course my screw is either a rivet or it just rusted away so I can’t do the simple fix
Why would you need to turn the water off to the house just to repair the outside faucet?
You turn off the main line to the house, because when you remove the spigot to replace the seal, it would be spraying water out where the spigot was removed if it was still on.
Thats like asking why you need to turn off the gas nozzle before you pull it out of your gas tank.
what a lot of people don't know is that there is a constant presence of water in your water lines & they are pressurized. So, if you remove parts of the waterline without turning off the pressure/main water line they will spray pressurized water everywhere. kind of like when a car hits a fire hydrant & breaks then line pressurized water goes everywhere. same thing with your house/apartment etc etc
@@oneguysopinionyup7252 Imagine thinking you need to explain that to someone.
He's lying. You don't need to. go ahead and try it without doing that.
Wow great video, short and simple. 👌
thank you thank you thank you thank you. you same me from paying someone else to do this for me!! :)
