    Brilliant! Utterly brilliant - I hope the plumber I call is as professional in dealing with the dripping hot water tap over the wash hand basin as you are in this video. In this instance I would accept cheap & cheerful (washer replacement) why? because both the sink & tap hardware will be upgraded soon - still in the process of searching for a compact wash basin. I also want to replace all the bathroom hardware: (hot & cold)shower & bath set, also have a shower rail with hand spray installed, need the tap outlet over the bath replaced and also the hot & cold taps over the laundry trough & finally the washing machine taps & inlet hoses to the washer need replacing. Oh almost forgot - those dreadful grab rails over the bath also need to be replaced to something a little more sleek in style, & finally there is the mixer tap in the kitchen it is cumbersome for pot washing - worst design ever. I therefore need a plumber I neither have the skill set nor the tools to do the work. I procrastinate getting the work done because I have yet to find a plumber that I feel confident will A). do the work, & B). not over charge.

    Should you/I apply the grease to the red fibre washer too? That is where my hand basin tap seems to (still!) be leaking from... Other reading I've done says that the fibre washers absorb a little bit of water and expand to provide a better seal and I'm not sure if a layer of grease will stop them being able to do that.

    Cheers mate. Was wondering why my repair didn’t work. Missed the O Rings. You saved me $50 - $100 😊

  • @mickeyolson255

    Very helpful thanks. I'm going to try the needle nose pliers method of removing the o-rings, instead of a tiny flat head screw driver. I love hearing the "proper English" terms like spanner wrench, anti-clockwise, tap grease , etc 😊. lighting and camera work could use a little improvement but good work .

    This is a very good basic tap maintenance video but before commencing this job do turn off the water at the mains where the water enters the property. If this is not done, you will surely get a good shower when you remove the tap spindle. Another important step is to make sure that the seat where the tap washer is to seal is clean and smooth. And don’t forget to turn the water back on at the mains on completion. Even though doing this job is probably illegal, it is a simple task requiring only basic skills.
