005: Leaky Kitchen Faucets Feb 23, 2015

Show notes

Leaky kitchen faucets can drive anyone nuts.

This episode tackles a question from Terry who wants to learn how to fix his leaky kitchen faucet pronto.

My biggest tip is to see if you can get replacement parts for free from the maker of the faucet.

If your faucet is from on these brands you might want to call and ask if the parts are under warranty.
