    Take apart faucet to repair leak
    I have a Delta 2 handle kitchen faucet which I believe is a Peerless faucet. It has a long goose-neck spout and separate sprayer. How do I remove the handles. Does it take a washer, an O ring or both?

    1st step is always turn off the water supply where it enters the house. Each handle on the faucet has a trim piece of some sort on top. Use a small screw driver or a kitchen knife to remove the trim piece, that will expose the screw that holds the handle to the faucet. After removing the handle ( sometimes the handles can be hard to remove, if so pry up with a screw driver) use a wrench to remove the valve, you should see either the O rings or washer.
