    Look at this photo I turned this spring loaded tap a fraction. Now it's dripping. Any ideas on sorting it

    It might have debris in the valve - twist it again to release a flow and rinse the valve, then let it snap shut quickly. Normally that sorts it if it's just crud. Top up the central-heating pressure then afterwards if needed.

    Thanks for the quick reply. I turned it the full way 3 times but no luck so far. Sure I can give it another few goes

    Why did you touch it in the first place? Was there a problem?
