Our Leaking or Dripping Tap Solution for Parliament Hill

Diagnosing Your Dripping Tap

1

Identify Tap Type

Traditional taps have separate hot/cold handles and use washers. Mixer taps with single lever usually have ceramic cartridges. This affects the repair approach.

2

Locate the Drip

Dripping from spout when closed = washer or cartridge. Dripping from base = O-ring. Dripping from behind = supply connection.

3

Check Both Taps

If both hot and cold drip (on traditional taps), both washers likely need replacing. Single handle mixers only need one cartridge.

How to Extend Tap Life

Don't overtighten taps when closing - this damages washers
In hard water areas (like London), clean limescale from aerators
Replace washers at first sign of dripping - delays make it worse
Consider upgrading to ceramic disc taps - they last longer
If water pressure is very high, consider a pressure reducing valve
