Great video My Delta faucet was made in the late 70's The Ball was in good shape and solid brass. it lasted decades they don't make them like they used too. took 5 minutes

@5:28 the grease…thank you.

BigFoot Bubba says:

Very clear, Very concise. Just an excellent video, thank you so much! The grease tip is the magic, thank you, they should pay you for that tip, and the secret sauce of not damaging the three tender copper pipes inside. Visuals are excellent, priceless. Teaching skills worth a billion.
Now I can show my thick brother what it takes to fix a bathroom. God help me! I know it will happen now.

That little tool at the very end that tighten the silicone ring that holds the silver ball in tight, you state that it's a delta tool. What's it called and where do I get one?

Heather Cook says:

Great Video. Thank you so much! I fixed the faucet all by myself with the help of this video.

Tracy Jeffreys says:

Thank you so much Ramona for sharing your plumber!! Ramona’s plumber, is this what i do for a leaking faucet too? Mine is a Delta single hot/cold knob like this and the actual faucet is leaking BAD. I’d like to try to fix it myself. Thank you!

Donna Hodges says:

Is there a trick to align the ball valve when you put it back in?

Caco Corlino says:

Perfect video. Thank you

Sean Carol says:

Thank you for making this video I did what you stated in your video and I was successful. Please keep making videos because there are a lot of people making plumbing videos and have no idea what they are doing. I had to dig to find your video but it was worth it because you helped me save money.

HANNA BEE says:

Can i also replace it to a swing type handle?

Frogman Smith says:

So does the little Delta tool come with the replacement kit?

Celeste Walter says:

Jeff Bunn says:
