Questions and answers
The seat underneath is pitted, so the washer never gets a flat surface to press against and wears straight back out. Re-cutting that seat is what makes the repair last.
While the bodies are sound and the parts are still made, yes, and it costs a fraction of new tapware. Once the chrome is flaking and the spindle threads are stripped, replacing is the better spend, and we will say which you have.
The seal under the tap's flange has failed or the back nut has loosened. We lift the tap, reseal it and tighten it from underneath.
A loose or worn jumper valve is fluttering in the flow. A new jumper and washer usually stops it, and if the knock is elsewhere in the house we look at that separately.
Often, if a ceramic disc spindle is made to suit your tap body. Where it is not, a new basin mixer or tap set is the way to get the same feel.
Basin hot water should be tempered to no more than 50°C. If it is hotter, the tempering valve or thermostatic valve that controls it needs checking, and that is a separate job we can price for you.
