Friend has a mixer tap and the actual water spout (?) is very slack. It would appear that that this spout is removeable and I am wondering can it be replaced. Is there any site that shows the actual internal construction of mixer taps?
some have a grub screw at the back to hold the spout others have a groove which needs to be lined up while pulling the spout up to remove, usually have to put the spout further back than you usually would to use the tap, you will prob find the o ring is worn causing the leak, wrapping with PTFE tape will be a temp repair until you get an o ring
Thanks for your replies guys and sorry about the delay in answering. At the bottom of the spout there is a ring which appears to have a thread. This can be tightened so much and then it slips and the spout is slack again. If it is a thread, then I would guess that part of it is damaged, though whether that damage is on the female ring or on the male base I am not sure. Are replacement spouts available for most mixers? Think I can get a photo if this would help..
