    Glacier bay faucets kitchen faucet leaks under base because 1 hole tightens down othe
    Glacier Bay makes a great kitchen faucet but... I have a 3 hole sink. Glacier Bay faucet covers that but only tightens in the center not on either side. So the other holes are open under the base and water rolls right trough them?

    If the faucet u have is a single level, then set base plate in a bead of caulking.Also put a bead around each of the holes.

    Agree with Creahands... Some plumbers also set the plate in Plumber's Putty. Advice: don't over-tighten faucet column. If you do, it will raise the sides of the plate...
