How to fix dripping tap

View the thread, titled "How to fix dripping tap" which is posted in UK Plumbers Forums on UK Plumbers Forums.

Hi, my tap is dripping. It’s not constant. Sometimes if I try that extra tighten it stops but most of time slowly dripping

It’s dripping from the tap where water comes out. Not below or near where turn off.

Can anyone advice how I fix this? Or do I have to replace the whole tap

Thanks in advance

From your description with giving an extra tighten, I’d say they’re traditional screw down type taps, so would probably just need a new washer, sometimes it’s the seating, but doubt it.
