Need help identifying Leaky kitchen faucet issue

My kitchen faucet is leaking where the hose is attached to the drop down sprayer when the water is turned on. The water is coming up the top of the sprayer. There is no identification/label/marking of any kind to identify what brand it is, at least on the surface. From what I have found online, it looks like I may need a new hose that attaches to the sprayer but I don't know what replacement hose to order. I need help identifying what the fix might be and/or the brand of the faucet. Here is a video I uploaded that shows the leak. https://youtu.be/k6ETU9HFHxc

Call Price Pfister and they will probably send you the hose or other parts free of charge. I'm more familiar with Delta and Moen.

It looks like your faucet is PP 531 series "Petaluma". The hose is part no. 951-102. The tech line will confirm this and help you get the parts.

Question about resetting tile in shower over hole

W

weigelt on Dec 09, 2017

Granted I'm not doing this myself. This is more a question of if the job was done properly. I hope that's not against the rules. We recently built a house and moved in 3 months ago. There was an issue with the shower not being centered on the wall so we are in the process of having it repositioned 3 inches tot he right. The tile guy took off three tiles. Then the plumber came in and cut through the wall to access the pipe to move it over 3 inches. Easy enough. However, the tiler, I don't believe, put up any more drywall or cement board or anything over the holes that were cut when he put up the new tiles. It looks like he did put some Kerdi membrane down where the valve is and put the thinset over that. But where the shower head goes, I think he just put some thinset around the hole and stuck up the new tile with no drywall/cement board or membrane. I can stick my finger in the hole in the new tile and move it around without touching anything--no drywall, no membrane. Here's some pictures: [url]https://imgur.com/a/xqHJw[/url] My concerns are: 1. First, is the original construction a proper installation in the first place? It looks like it's Kerdi over drywall. You can see in the photos where the plumber cut it open that it appears to be drywall. My research tells me drywall should be used as a last resort. I didn't really give it a second thought until I started researching this issue. 2. Secondly, the fact that the tile guy is now just putting up new tile without filling in these cut-out holes or using enough Kerdi has me worried about future water damage and mold. With my limited knowledge it seems like shoddy work. Am I overreacting?Read More

Tub Faucet - Stuck - No Diverter - Leak

All right, yesterday my Fiance was showering when I noticed water leaking down into our basement. After pulling off the valve stems, replacing the gaskets/seals, and applying a thread sealant. I have determined that they were not the cause of the leak. I went up from there and checked the shower head elbow, no leak there. I am to the point where I believe the leak is coming from the faucet. I am trying to remove the faucet, but I am having no luck. It seems to seized up and I am unable to get it to tighten or loosen (lubricant has been applied). Anyone have any ideas? No, there is not a setscrew. I will be re-caulking and grouting between the tiles to ensure a proper seal. If the faucet is not the cause of the leak, I have run out of ideas and will be calling in a plumber. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated, before I hire outside help. Thank you!Read More
