    Leaky Tub faucets
    I need to know what makes the valves inside the hot and cold handles on a tub leak.. Then how do I remove the stems and make sure they are still sealled correctly? I know to turn water off.. I just want to know how to back out the stems and explore for damage or replacement vaulves?
