If the faucet still drips after replacing the gasket, it is possible that there is a problem with the faucet seat. A damaged gasket may cause the faucet valve seat to become uneven due to metal valve core wear, or the accumulation of chemicals in the water may form debris, which prevents the gasket from fully pressing against the valve seat.

How to repair a broken faucet seat? Of course, you can replace the entire faucet. Another option is to only replace the faucet seat. If there is the right thing - called a valve seat wrench - then removing the old valve seat is a simple task. Insert the valve seat wrench into the valve seat and then turn it counterclockwise. Once you remove the old valve seat, please make sure that the new valve seat you purchased is identical to the original one. If the valve seat cannot be removed, insert a suitable seat sleeve that can slide into the old valve seat and provide a seal. There are two types of valve seat rollers or grinders that can flatten worn valve seats.

Another option is to use a valve seat roller or grinder, which is a cheap tool that can flatten worn valve seats again. Be careful not to use this thing for too long or with too much force, as the valve seat is made of soft metal, you can easily wear it off too much.

When using a grinder, first remove the valve core of the faucet and insert the valve seat roller downwards into the valve seat in the faucet body. Rotate the thing clockwise several times with moderate force. Then use a cloth to clean the metal shavings that have fallen off the valve seat.
