Tap keeps dripping.

Hi there I have a quick query, the tap in the kitchen keeps dripping ( it has a single nozzle ), I have changed both taps to no avail, do I have to change the nozzle as well ? Thanks in advance.

When you say you have changed both taps what do you mean. Have you changed the brass pce inside the tap or just the handle.

If the tap is still dripping and you changed the brass internals either the seat of the tap seal has grit or its damaged.

I have never seen it damaged

So you just changed the handles.... You need to change the washer on the internal or just buy a new internal and change that,

The washer costs cents the internal about 5-10 euro depending where you go.
