Eleanor Driscoll on Oct 19, 2015You can also get "plumbers thread tape' it is a round small container of very thin plastic on a spool, very cheap, that you can easily wrap around the pipe threads. It seals it and is easy to remove when needed. One other time in a pinch I added another washer on top of the other and that worked as well.Helpful Reply

Rus1058682 on Oct 22, 2015is it leaking around the connection? If so, you can seal the threads by removing the head, and rubbing a bar of soap across the threads on the pipe it was attached to. Quick and free fix. Or buy some Teflon tape at the hardware store, and wrap the threads with a thin layer of it.. But if it is constant, it is probably the faucet washers need to be replaced. still pretty cheap to do yourself. Just google how to, and you will get videos of how the repair is done..Helpful Reply

Teresa Lilly on Oct 22, 2015Thanks to everyone for your very helpful suggestions. I will be going to Lowe's this weekend anyway so will pick up some Teflon tape and some faucet washers as well. Sounds like both are good to have on hand. And Rusizplace....thanks so much for the suggestion of googling for a how-to video. I am more of a visual learner and this will make it much easier. My thanks again to all. May you continue to be blessed.Helpful Reply
