kitchen mixer tap water leaking?

[jackg]

Swivel spout.
Water pooling at the joint with the sink.
Water seems to vent from the spout and no more, rather than a leak.
Tap is ten years old
Repair or replace?

Do you mean water escapes from where it swivels at the tap body ? If so it probably just needs new O rings. If not fit a new tap .

as above.

O ring sounds more likely.

If you know the brand, email them. The better firms will send the O-rings out for free.

Post a photo of the tap for more advice.
