Mixer tap dripping.

GBX · 2023-12-21 09:22:23

Hi all, we have a mixer tap that has started dripping fairly heavily. The hot tap seems to be the culprit. For now, I've an elastic band on the hot side to stop any dripping and waste. Are these taps fixable or am I better off replacing the whole unit ? Fyi it's in the style of a Franke mixer. Thanks 👍

Find a matching 'tap gland' kit and swap it out. I'd swap both as the other might go soon too.

Have a search on you tube for a fix.
