Leaking tap
A tap that drips, won't fully shut off, or leaks around the base.
Quick things to check first
- 1Check whether the drip is from the spout or from around the base/handle.
- 2Find the isolation valve under the sink so you can shut off the water if needed.
- 3Note whether it only leaks when running, or constantly.
These are general pointers, not a full diagnosis. For guidance tailored to your exact problem, show us a photo and describe it.
When to call a professional instead
- The leak is from a joint you can't safely access
- Water is coming from inside a wall
