    How to change a washer in a bathtub faucet
    I have no access to the shut-off valve, but need to change the washer in my bathtub faucets. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Which shut off valve? Somewhere you have a main and that may be your only option, shut down the main.

    I cannot get to the main. The shutoff is the same thing as the main!
    Thank you for the suggestion.

    The main I am referring to is the one "shut off" on the supply line entering your home. It is on the city water supply pipe or your well line.
