I've got a leak under my kitchen sink that seems to be coming from the sprayer hose. I'm looking for a way to completely eliminate it instead of removing or replacing the hose and sprayer. I'm a single homeowner and I've been struggling for a few days now trying to fix what I thought would be a simple issue. Unfortunately, I don't have the budget to hire anyone to help me out. Any advice would be appreciated!

If you're trying to remove the sprayer, first you'll want to check where the hose attaches to the supply line. Sometimes there’s a tricky connection there. If you want to get rid of the sprayer completely, you can either plug the hole or consider putting in a soap dispenser in its place for a cleaner look. A plug that fits snugly in the hole can be a really simple option too!
I totally feel you on this one! Removing a kitchen sprayer can be a real pain. I ended up just cutting the hose because I couldn't get it to disconnect either. Just keep turning that connection piece, and if it’s not budging, cutting might be your best option. Once you've removed it, replacing it with something new is really what matters. Just make sure you can install the new fitting afterward!
Yeah, I had to do the same thing a while back. Sometimes those connections just seize up after a while. Just make sure you’ve got everything cleared away before you start cutting to avoid any accidental damage!
