DIY Noob - Chapter 2 - The Leaky Faucet

So our master bath has had a slow drip for a few days, so I (who has no plumbing knowledge) decided that we better fix it, or we will just keep letting money go down the drain! I'll be honest, trying to tackle some DIY projects can be kind of intimidating, especially plumbing for me. I am always scared that I will make the problem worse, or have water spraying all over the place. But I figured, heck, I put in a toilet a few months ago, this shouldn't be too bad.


Thank god for the internet. Within seconds of googling "facuet drip" I had a pletora of info, including video tutuorials! All I had to do was tear apart the handles (a few nuts and screws) and replace a few O-rings and washers. A trip to the hardware store, $4.00 and 30 minutes later - problem solved! Not too bad for someone who has no idea what the F they are doing.


I pwn leaky faucets.

Facuets are easy, it's a good project to get your,ummm, feet wet with. I'm currently dealing with a leaky shower handle and damn, that's a disaster.
