DIY noisy shower valve fix

Noisy shower valve fix. If your shower valve is squealing, humming, screeching, whistling, ringing or any other loud high pitched noise, I have the repair. The vibrating pipes could be caused by the tub spout vibration when leaking. A DIY repair that is quick and easy.

This fix works for Moen, Delta, Kohler, American Standard, Grohe, Pfister, Glacier Bay, Peerless and more.

Thank you for giving the example sound at the beginning. My girlfriend and I were going nuts trying to translate the sound to a google search.

Thank you! I was 98% sure it was the spout. I am so glad I found you

Thank you so much! I had called a plumber and he said it was something else that would cost me $475 to fix. Then I called a friend and he said that’s not going to fix the problem, but I insisted anyway that this would solve the problem. IT DID! THANK YOU!
Sometimes guys just don’t want to believe a woman who watched a man on a YouTube video! Lol

Thank you!! I came on youtube due to this exact problem. On our way to Home Depot to get products described.

After cutting a new seat in my shower valves, there was an increase in noise. I figured one reason could be the very sharp new edge that the water has to flow around, creating high pitch whine. Sure enough your video convinced me to buy a cheap hand deburring tool and I smoothed the sharp edge of the seat out, and now it's silent. Perfect.

Huge thanks for taking the time to share this! This was exactly the problem our shower had...it was able to be fixed quickly and for <$30!

Fantastic video. Short and to the point, but didn't rush through the basics. Thank you for taking the time to make this excellent video!

[brandymasters]

Thank you. I search everywhere for a solution. Your the only one who had a simple fix to an annoying problem

[briannarobinson]

THANK YOU !! You saved the day ! I didn’t know how to fix that annoying squealing sound for like a month . So relieved I found your video & the solution to the problem, so thank you so much !
Also, I like the part when you tossed the instructions away lol 😆

For four years we put up with the noise. Thanks to your video our ears will finally rest from the terrible whistling sound. I replaced the spout. The new one does drip a little maybe do to water well but the noise is fully gone. Thank you so much!!!

Gonna try this out. Been dealing with it for years never thought it would be an easy fix.

[LissaMac]

THANK YOU!!! I’ve finagled with that darn shower so many times after the kids have complained about the squealing but never bought any parts since I wasn’t sure what part. After hearing it again this morning I found this video and thought why not. $24 at Home Depot and less than 20 minutes later (I had to redo and screw from the bottom since the handle is too close) and it’s quiet now. 👍🏼🎉🎆🥳👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Wow! That was fantastic! Super detailed and simple! Thanks so much!

[VeKewl]

Thank you so much! I bought a new house and this was happening. Switched the spout and sure enough no more screeching

[kolankprof]

Excellent Video ... Thank You. This is exactly the noise problem (and solution) that I had at my cottage. Great Video!

[brianhunter]

Thank you so much. Both showers were doing it and change both out and now are quiet

[pastorjlavigne]

Thank you! Changing my fountain was exactly what I needed!
