Service guide
A tap that drips, wobbles or is difficult to turn may need a small repair, a replacement part or a new fixture. A description of the tap and where water is escaping helps narrow the conversation.
Tap repairs
Include whether it is a kitchen, bathroom, laundry or outdoor tap and whether the leak is constant or only present when the tap is used.
