Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can help. When I moved into my Edwardian house three years ago, the bathroom tap was dripping and was slowly getting worse. After botching trying to change the washer myself (trying to save money as I'm a single mum), I called in a plumber and he said the inside was ruined by grit and I needed new taps. He fitted these and they were fine at first but eventually started dripping.
About a year ago, I called in a different plumber (the first was too busy) and he said the same thing. I got a new set again.
Now it has happened again and is steadily worsening. Could there be an underlying reason for this? What should I be asking my plumber to get this sorted once and for all? Or should I just get better quality taps?
Thanks in advance for any tips.
