How do you competely shut a leaking faucet?
I'm not a plumber, but I think if you want to completely shut a leaking faucet, you have to make sure that the faucet is screwed on real good.....if it still leaks....then the screws are stripped, and you will need NEW screws for your faucet.....or you will need a NEW faucet....one or the other.
I have tried a basin wrench, a socket wrench, an adjustable wrench... I have used heat, I have used WD-40, I have used a hammer and a flat head screwdriver to try and loosed the nut and bolt. I have even tried a hacksaw, but that gets me nowhere quick. I really don't want to have to remove my sink completely to change the faucet. I think Hercules tightened these nuts. Can anyone give me some advice on how to get these nuts off so I can change out the faucets?
I'd have to assume you're referring to the pot metal hex nuts that hold the faucet assembly down in the sink, or possibly the newer plastic nuts, which can sometimes be so tight that it seems nearly impossible to remove them. If the nuts are metal, I'm sort of with Ed, in that I use a Dremel tool with a cutting wheel attachment to cut the nut. You're probably not going to reuse the faucet assembly so it doesn't matter if you mess up the threads on the bolts or threaded pipes hanging down under the sink. The Dremel tool is small enough to get it up into fairly tight areas and with a little care you can cut the nuts in two and then knock them loose with a small punch and hammer. If the nuts are the plastic ones with the four fins sticking up, I made a tool out a piece of 1" galv. pipe, by cutting a couple of slots in a cross formation on top with a hacksaw, that fits right over the fins and can be turned with either a small screwdriver, (if you drill a hole through the bottom end of the pipe), or with a pair of channel locks, by grabbing on to the pipe itself. Just use safety glasses while working under a sink to protect your eyes.
The sink fixture when installed never sealed properly and water can seep between the portion of the faucet that meets the sink basin. Just a small area - I'm not replacing the sink - just can't and won't. I had used some clear caulk around the base of the faucet fixture, but it came off after a few months: it was silicone, but in the fine print it says that it was for windows and doors (I just took the tube he handed me then left). It worked fine while it lasted, but what type would you suggest?
the silicone should be sufficient. you may not have installed it properly. you have to make sure that the area you are sealing is clean of previous caulking. you also have to make sure that the area is very dry prior to putting the seal. then once you put the caulking on make sure you don't use the sink for 48hrs. Avoid getting it wet. It should last after that. you could also put some plumbing putty into the space then put the caulking. You might want to check under the sink if there is a way for you to tighten the faucet down to get rid of the gap.
Does it take any special plumber tools? I am very mechanically inclined but I know that in some plumbing jobs it takes special tools. I want to changing a basic 4 bathroom vanity faucet. Anyone have some pointers out there? Or should I call a plumber?
I have changed mine out! It doesn't take any specialty tools, but does take commitment as the space is really tight. The first faucet set I changed I used slip joint pliars to tighten the little nuts. The second set I changed, my son brought me a hinged jointed wrench that works great wonders in getting up in that tiny space and not cracking knuckles. I need to change one of my kitchen faucets and am putting the job off. But it will have to be done. Note: my house has well water and it is really alkali and eats the fixtures right up!
