I have a free standing bath, the taps have a shower head attached with a handle you move side to side to divert the water. One day this handle suddenly went loose and now water comes out the tap and shower head when you turn the taps on. How can I fix this?
 
This situation should be that the valve core on the handle is loose. Just tighten it and there should be a hot and cold small thing on the handle. First, you need to take off this small thing. There is a nut inside the handle and screw it down. Then, you can directly tighten the valve core and reinstall the handle If you want to learn more about related issues or products, you can directly contact us online at [email protected]

Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
