This is a great post. No plumbing experience myslef and i had a leaky faucet with the exact fittings above. Pulled up this post, followed it, pulled out stems and discovered our washer was totally mauled. Got replacement stems for both sides anyway that came with new washers and our bathtup is running perfectly again. Thank you.

That looks like a pretty simple fix. Thank you. Mine has been acting up the same way as yours for a few months now, and I haven’t had the money to call anyone. I’ve been searching the net recently for info and I think I have all the information I need. Thanks a lot.

I believe this is what happened to my tub handles. I had a plumber replace the handles that looked exactly like photo #1 but noticed a year later that the tub had blistering and cracking not to mention dicoloration below the faucet. I kept trying to patch it with fiberglass but no luck. I called in another plumber and he said the seat had broke off the hot water and it was leaking behind the tub causing tons of water damage - the steam causing the fiberglass to blister and crack. Is this true? Would hot water cause that? If it was the cold water would that have happened? Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

That's for sure, you never know what to expect until you start the project. Things could have been a lot worse for you though had it been leaking into the wall.

You are in a similar situation as we were. It sounds like the seats for the knobs are leaking so hot water will always flow around the seat when any water is pulled. Have you pulled the knobs yet to see what is behind?
