: I am not sure how to replace the washers in the fawcets. Reply: If your faucet is of the compression variety: -Shut the water. -Take off the handle(s). -Remove the stem(s). -Remove the washers, install new (same exact replacement) washers. -Reassemble It is recommended to replace faucet seats at the same time as the washers. You might need a plumber for this repair. Good Luck. e-plumber
