I found the rubber washer was missing on the end of the hose so I put a 1/4" rubber grommet and it just happened to squish in the middle for a leak-less connection.
My shower head is leaky in it’s joint and it’s not possible to wrap this place with tape. Water is dripping from the joint and it looks odd. Is there any solution for this or should I replace the shower head with a new one.
I have handheld shower head with slide bar, I tried the above method but still, sometimes it drips. Do you have other methods for shower leakage issues?
This was my first experience trying to repair a leaking kitchen faucet. I used a few different tips and tricks to fix the problem, but none worked. I tried to fix the problem myself and the only thing that worked was to replace the entire faucet assembly.
