Taps & water · A short practical guide
Kitchen tap drips: repair the mixer or replace it
A kitchen tap keeps dripping after closing. It may need repair rather than complete replacement.
What to check
The model, availability of internal parts and body condition matter. Distinguish drops from the spout from leaks around the base or below the sink; an older tap may have several worn parts.
Preparation and next steps
Send the leak location, model, approximate age and under-sink photos. Agree diagnosis before purchasing a replacement and check mounting and access. Do not force the handle tighter in an attempt to stop dripping.
Photos + dimensions + city + preferred time.
Understanding the prices
These are labour estimates, not a final quotation. Fixings, materials, removal, difficult access, a helper and additional jobs are agreed separately. Confirm the minimum visit charge and total before booking.
