“Fixing a Leaky Faucet” turns an annoying drip into a quick, safe win. Chapter 1 shows you how to confirm where the leak starts, identify your faucet type by handle travel and trim, shut off water the right way, and build a precise parts list. Chapter 2 walks through the actual repair with three paths: compression (washer and seat), cartridge or ceramic disc (cartridge swap), and ball-type (cam, springs, seats). You’ll reassemble cleanly, restore water, purge air, and run a two-minute drip test with quality checks for handle feel and joint seals. Chapter 3 gives you the deeper troubleshooting map if a drip returns, plus pressure testing, water-hammer basics, spout O-ring service, and an annual care routine. The tone is calm, practical, and step-locked for audio. You finish with a dry spout, smooth handles, and a simple kit ready for the next repair.
