How do I shut off a leaky hot water valve?
The hot water in my bathroom is leaking from the faucet. I've shut off the valve below the sink, but it continues to dribble out. Also, there appears to be some rust build-up. Could that account for a failing valve?
It sounds like your shutoff valve is not working properly. You need to shut off the hot water at the main valve where it comes out of the water heater (this will shut off all hot water in the house); drain the line (there's a little knob on the main shutoff valve you can twist that will allow the water in the pipe to drip out), then replace the shutoff valve. The shutoff valve is probably threaded pipe and can be loosened using two wrenches (hold the pipe with one wrench and twist the nut with the other - you want to conteract the twisting motion on the pipe so the pipe does not weaken and burst, which is why the one wrench needs to hold the pipe). once the valve is removed, clean the pipe threads with a wire brush and cleaning solvent to remove the rust and install the new valve. Be sure to read the manufacturer's directions to see if you need to wrap the threads with teflon tape first. When the valve is replaced, you can turn on the main hot water valve at the water heater; then use the new shutoff valve when you prepare to repair or replace the faucet. I would expect the faucet is leaking due to worn out washers, you can take it apart and tell.
I susupect the rust you see is a result of the leak and not the other way around.
