Kohler tub faucet valve seat

Hose burst under stink
It is highly unlikely that the faucet failed; it's far more likely the feed tube between the water pipe and the faucet burst. If your faucets were installed 5 years ago, it's likely that they were installed with flexible feed tubes. Reach up under the faucet and unscrew the feed tube, then unscrew the feed tube from the cutoff valve on the water pipe. Take the burst tube to Home Depot and get a new one - it should cost $10 or so. (I would also recommend picking up a small tube of thread seal - it'll look like a travel tube of toothpaste and cost about $3.) Lightly coat the threads of the faucet connection with thread seal and screw the feed pipe onto the faucet as tight as you can with your hand. Do the same at the cutoff valve end with a wrench but do not over tighten. Once both ends are firmly connected, turn the cutoff valve on and check for leaks. If you find any, try to tighten the connections a bit. If you're uncomfortable with any of this, I'm sure there's a DIYer like me in your neighborhood who'd be glad to help out. It's easy and it's quick once you've done it a couple times. Good luck!
Stuck screw
They make an extraction tool called a grabitz
It's a double ended tool which has sort of drill on one end and an ez-out on the other. Use the drill end first then the other with drill in reverse usually will come right out. And put some grease on the new screw before installation and won't have that problem next time
My Kohler cistern (Kohler Code 1764A-0) overflows
Cut the water off (just to keep from wasting water), remove the float and see if water has leaked into the float so that it became too heavy to rise with the water and turn the water off.
Everything else works because you can lift the float and shut off the water. The valve could be sticking in which case, replace or remove and lube with a bit plumber's silicon.

Check and see if the handle or the chain inside the tank is broken. If it is, find out the make and model and get replacement. There are many different types of handles out there. Some universal handles won't work, so bring the handle with you when you buy a new one..
