I have a swivel head mixer tap thats dripping after a new combi was installed. I took the handles off and removed valves from hot and cold.Ceramic discs and everything else seemed fine. put back together and still dripping??

Some ceramic valves rely on metal springs to force the discs together, others rely on O rings (that often go square in section). Did you check the condition of these parts?
