The faucet is in a stucco wall and the only part exposed is the spigot only. It appears to me that to replace the faucet I will have to dig out quite a bit of stucco.

So I am hoping it can be a DIY repair.

Let me know what you know about repairing. Thanx.

go to ace or home depot and get the wrapping that goes in the nut. its like thick string. easy dyt
