LEaking kitchen tap

brightkane · 2018-07-17 10:26:28

Hi Folks We have an old tap that is leaking from the where the spout meets the body. The o ring is gone i believe. leaks faster when the hot or cold tap is on I have looked for the screw that holds it into the body but I cant find it. could it be held from underneath or just the whole spout screw off?

Some taps were designed that by turning the spout so that it faces directly back towards the window it would pull up out of the body, give that a try.
