Faucet Fixture Shower

Where can I find Hermies fixtures

Hermes appears to be part of Linea Aqua. I found one "Hermes" faucet through their website (below). Hope this works for you!

We bought a vanity set from Home Depot for our bathroom. It came with the base (vanity) and a counter/sink piece to sit on top. We don’t see anyway to secure the counter to the vanity. It just sits there. But it rocks a little actually. Seems like it should stay in place somehow other than because the faucet is attached to the plumbing.

How do we do this? It didn’t come with any pieces, and maybe it should have come with directions we don’t have.

Thanks

i place about an inch of caulk at all four corners, if you ever need to take if off it would be almost impossible if you caulk the entire edges.
other than that its just the weight of it that keeps it in place.
(the vanity cabinet should be attached to the wall with screws)
place the vanity top in place, do not push down too hard or all the caulk will be pressed out and it could still rock a little.
caulk around where the vanity top meets the wall to keep out water.

The faucet is almost 5 years old and came with the new house.
I removed the handle , however, I could not remove the cover to expose the interior parts. Delta sent me a cartridge to replace, but no instructions how to install
cheked the delta website. no instruction how-to dis-assemble

Take a cresent wrench or a pipe wrench and loosen the nut that is around the stem. Use a towel in the jaws of the wrench so you won’t mess up the chrome or other finish that it has. Good luck. If you need further assistance, go down to the hardware store and have them give you instructions or show you how it’s done.

Over the past year, water will just stop coming out mid-shower. It is picking up frequency, occassionally stopping twice during a shower. Infrequently, the same problem can be said for kitchen and bathroom sink faucets, but rarely. The water pressure is fine prior to, and following these occurrences. Thank you for any suggestions.

Two things come to mind.
1) are you on a well or city water? If on a well you could have a defective bladder in your pressure tank. The tank/bladder evens out the pressure when the well pump cycles on and off.

2) I have seen this happen when you have a bad washer in a valve. If this happens in different fixtures in the house this is not likely your problem.

I want to change out all of the fixtures from the kitchen and bathrooms. My house is 12 years old.

Is it possible to change out the fixture even if the original fixtures are one name brand and the ones I want to use are another name brand. Do I have to do something special like change the valves behind the wall?

Any insight you can provide is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Name brand will not be an issue when changing out fixtures. Toilets are made to be interchangable. There may be some variances in how close the tank sits to the wall or the width of the tank.
Sinks are not a problem. The drains will probably have to be re-worked and you will probably need new supply tubes from the shut-offs to the faucets unless they are the flexible variety.
All in all the swapping of old fixtures for new ones is usually not a big problem.
If you are doing showers or tubs you are getting into a bigger job all the way around. Good luck.

The developer used a kitchen cabinet for the vanity in the bathroom. It’s really big and has lots of storage but It’s kind of deep, which means you can’t get really close to the mirror and has no drawer space, but I can deal with that. Problem is it’s counter height and he installed an above counter faucet. I’m 5′5" and it’s tough for me to use. Any ideas on how to fix? Get a recessed sink installed. The countertop is granite… Thanks!
It was a gut renovation. Unfortunately, this list of things is long, and I don’t see any of them getting done. All the wall lights in the bathrooms are offcenter and too low (not noticed until I went to put up mirrors – your head gets cut off if you’re over 5′6")

REMOVE VANITY AND CUT THE TOE KICK OFF–WILL DROP THE TOP 4 TO 6 INCHES. RE-INSTALL–OR REPLACE WITH A REGULAR VANITY BASE 24" DEEP SO THAT YOU CAN KEEP THE GRANITE TOP. GOOD LUCK

I have removed the clear acrylic knob/handle but now do not know how to remove the cartridge. I have removed single stems either hot or cold before but not a stem that controlled both hot and cold. Some articles reference the need of a cartridge puller but they do not go into any greater detail.
Yes, it is by the way a scald guard faucet.

Guy,
I’m honest with you here.
You can easily twist the cartridge body. So be careful.

I go on such calls several times a year where the homeowner starts to unscrew the bonnet and twist the whole thing.
Delta does not have a good design on it and it’s weak.

I suggest you get a plumber and watch him do it so you can the next time.

Now if you are talking about the scald gard faucets they are ok. Just pull the chrome cover off, unscrew the chrome retaining ring and pull the cartridge straight out.

The older models , get a plumber.

I’m trying to repair the Delta Faucet (Ball type faucet) in my tub/shower and am having a hard time removing the cap & collar around the "guts" of the faucet, I have removed the cap, screw, and plastic ring inside the cap & collar, I have a older home with copper piping, so I’m not really wanting to keep cranking on it, anyone have any suggestions??

I have installed thousands of those faucets over the years. All I can tell you is to be careful and keep twisting it counterclockwise. You might try some penetrating oil. It could also be scale deposits. Might try some of the products to remove the build up. Don’t mix the chemicals though. Good luck.

I am looking for Delta Tub shower trim kit. The diverter that I have is larger than most of the hardware store have,

not sure where you are, but if the hd and lowes dont have them then try www.meshersupply.com they are a great parts house I use all the time. They are reliable and will ship to you

I’m refinishing rather than buying a new bathroom vanity. One problem however is that the wood surface at the bottom of the vanity, (inside the cabinet, where you would normally store chemicals, toilet paper, etc) is warped and badly bowed into the center. I wanted to just cut and apply another thin piece right over it, shimming it or whatever else to level it but my question is, what should I coat it with to keep any future dripping from damaging it again?

It is just as easy to remove and replace old bottom with new wood rather than leave rot underneath, as far as coating new wood depends on your craftsmanship. You will probably have to make new bottom in 2 maybe 3 pieces in order to get in cabinet. Oil base paint if you wood putty seams or polyuretane varnish if you are happy with how it looks raw
