Dripping Taps

Dripping Taps

This is almost invariably due to a faulty tap washer. You may have to simply fit a new tap, or replace the tap washer.
Both jobs may be within the remit of the competent DIY enthusiast with the right tools, but there can be complications, so if in any doubt get the a professional plumber in. If you're buying new taps it's important to replace like for like, to make replacing them as easy as possible.
