My kitchen was redone in 2003, and my Delta faucet started leaking four years ago. I tried fixing it myself, and while I didn't succeed, the leak became sporadic rather than constant. So I suppose I achieved a degree of success. Now, however, the leak has taken a leap. Not only does water come out of the base of the faucet itself, but it comes out of the base of the handle as well. And I realized today that we are in dire straits, as water is emerging from the edge of the sink--the front edge, no less.
So I'm thinking a new faucet is needed. Do you agree?
My other questions: Would you expect a faucet to last longer? And am I crazy to buy a new one (almost) exactly like the old one? This Delta faucet looks very similar to the one I have. I love the look, and obviously it fits all the holes in my sink. But I don't want to be eyeing it for leaks all the time.
Thanks!
