How to install an outside tap

Good video bud majority of time I've found out if u disassemble the ceramics and clean any debris between the mating ceramic inserts it usually fixes the drips I also add a very small amount of vaseline on all moving parts.

Derek, you're a star! I've been able to turn off the hot water supply pipe with a screw driver underneath the wash basin in no time, by following your learned guidance - saving me a big headache! I've got a leaking wash basin hot water tap and one of my main concerns was turning the water supply off. As I live in a basement flat that has mains supply to all the Other flats. This would mean that I would be turning the supply off to all other flats in order to fix the leak - the other tenants would have been inconvenienced, needlessly. Derek thanks a lot!

Thanks for the instruction. Forgive me if this has been asked before...My single handle cold water tap leaks (drips) when closed only if water pressure is greatly reduced. Once pressure is back to normal, the drip stops. Yes it is a ceramic cartridge design. Thanks.

With the huge variation in tap sizes, I've found it almost impossible to get the correct one. Would it not be possible to replace the actual discs, assuming they are all the same size?

Thanks Derek great video 🙏👍

Thanks Derek, I've got a tap where I changed the ceramic cartridge because it was leaking and three weeks later it's leaking again! I'm going to look at the seat as per your suggestion. Cheers!

The brass ring will not come out of my tap, how do I get it out?

Nice video. I tried replacing one not long ago but only when I went into b&q I saw how many different measurements there are on the cartridges! Thanks Derek 👍🏻

Dumbest design ever. You can repair and replace, but even new valves start leaking again after a year or two.
