+Grace Apell That's great news Grace. Thank you for letting me know.

Thanks for the video. It made me think fixing the tap wouldn't be that hard. It turns out we have ceramic valves, but I just took the whole valve to a plumbers' merchant so they could see it, and got a replacement pair for ~£13. There was a little gotcha, in that the new "cold" valve (with the blue washer) made the tap turn the wrong way, but I worked out that I needed to use the "hot" valve for the cold tap, and then all was well.

Great video and well explained. I now know how I can fix my dripping kitchen tap this evening. Thank you very much.

Very well done... I'll be tackling this job this weekend. Thanks!

Thanks, you made it look easy. I'm going to have a go this afternoon....

Great video. Lower third title graphic is annoying though - covers up half your work.

Well presented and a great help in saving me some money. Thanks for posting.

I was just about to go mad from my dripping tap when I found this video. Thanks a lot, this was very helpful. I had no idea I could repair the bloody thing myself..

That was so helpful. Thank you!

You are brilliant! Thank you for sharing x

Many thanx for sharing this video. To pay plumbers is costly so---this really helps. Never have any experience before doing this but-----it seems like not hard to do as u have given us a very excellent instructions. keep up ur great work. we have the same tap -which made it more easy to follow. great job. my first time to repair my own tap bohhooh! wish me luck:)

Extra tip, if you do this job on a single pillar type tap, gert hold of an Easytapsplitter, see video on here, some tap headgear can be extremely tight and may cause damage to tap, sink or pipework, and turn this "simple" task into a nightmare. Plumbing can be very unpredictable.

Keeping it simple, very helpful..

Great video! Thanks.

Great instructional video, thank you.

You're welcome. Glad it helped.

Great help, thank you.

Nice video. this helped me fix my kitchen mixer tap. I bought the washers in anticipation. However after finally removing the valves and pulling a muscle in my neck (don't ask! they were corroded on badly) I had the ceramic valve type. Screwfix has these for a pair £5.50 can't beat that price. no more drip and a nice smooth action. I have the qtr turn type and had to put a couple of washers under the handles as they were forcing into the tap casing when tightening the retaining screws.

Sometimes the insides of the tap are damaged and if this is the case the new washer will not solve the problem. You may need to reseat the tap or if the tap is old, then replace the whole thing. I don't have a video about reseating a tap myself but there is probably one to be found. Good luck!

How would you know if it's the hot or cold side that needs changing?

Helpful! Just flipped the washer around. As new! I am a man, thanks sis!

@khanmmadi Cool!! So glad I could help.

Had to watch 5 rubbish vids before finally finding you - thanks! Can you advise me? My shower leaks but it is a thermostatic shower so the leaking tap is hot and cold. There is least leakage if I turn it slightly on (???). 2 questions: 1, will it be the same inside if I open it and can I just change one washer (bit scared to open it but it looks like your tap under the plastic), and 2. do I need to stop both hot and cold water before repairing? Thanks in advance

Love your company name...ha...

What did you spend the other quid on?

Nice and clear. i have a tap exactly like that, it leaks from spout head. To stop the leak, you need to really tighten the hot water tap. More than usual tight. You think it's a hot tap washer or spout washer? Thanks 🛀🛀🛀

Hey, this is a useful video!....but I think you also need to retile and get some fresh sealant in the behind the sink!

Nice name.

Funny name..Stopcocks but great vid. Thanks ))

would have helped if you showed people how to turn off the main water! @0:30

Only issue is that everything had seized up. Liberal amounts of WD40 and brute strength got us through!!
