Shower plumbing

6 years ago

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to replace a stem valve seat that is completely stripped. It’s about two (2) inches into the wall and is completely stripped out. it’s the main cause of my hot water stem valve leak and needs to be replaced. Thank you

I cut off the tip of a large e-z out to where it would just engage the seat. It came right out.
