    Braided line, nut won't rotate

    I'm probably using the wrong terms, apologies. Trying to replace a kitchen faucet. When attempting to remove the hot water lead, I can't, because the braided part folds over on itself, because the... something... doesn't spin properly. The cold water line is fine. Is there a way to "break that...

    Replacing vintage kitchen faucet

    This sink was installed 1912 I think. I’m sure faucet is not that old, but it’s old enough. Produces 20% of the flow from a nearby bathroom sink and we would like to replace it. Doesn’t have to be the same, just has to work. Is it going to be hard to match the holes? Recommendations? Thank you.

    Unable to tighten loose faucet base.

    The base of the faucet moves when we try to adjust the faucet position. I’ve previously had success tightening the bolts underneath, but this is no longer working. I’m guessing this is from what looks like water damage to the wood underneath the countertop but I don’t want to assume anything...

    How do I turn off these valves?

    I'm trying to shut off the sink so I can fix the leaky faucet.... but these valves on this particular sink are different than all the others in my house. Picture 1 looks like you'd turn it 90 and it would shut off, however it just spins in circle. So I thought maybe it was a push pull but as you...

    Removing Moen kitchen faucet aerator

    My Moen kitchen faucet has an aerator that none of the standard aerator keys seem to fit. I've attached a picture of it below. Maybe Moen did this purposefully to make people need to replace the whole faucet head every time. Looking at this YouTube video, How to remove a Moen kitchen faucet...

    Need to change sink aerator

    My apartment recently “upgraded” my kitchen sink by changing the aerator. It is very annoying and I would like to change it back to the old piece that they left behind (see attached photos). I have tried unscrewing it but can’t figure it out, there is also no brand name for me to look up. Any...

    Is There a Kitchen Faucet with 2 Water Sources?

    Has anyone ever seen a kitchen sink faucet that can switch between 2 water sources? Kind of like the water guns that bars use to switch between soda/water, but for a household kitchen sink? We are getting an under-sink Reverse Osmosis water filter soon, and looking at options to not drill a...

    Low water pressure

    I have a cheap faucet in the kitchen and it’s getting slower and slower by the day. Problem is, it’s brand new. Well, the guy I bought the house from put it in right before we moved in and said he got it from Home Depot. Even with the aerator off it’s still pretty slow. Any suggestions before I...
