Hi,

my bathroom tap has developed a slight leak which is slowly getting worse. If it was a standard tap it would be easy to fix, but alas it's not, its very similar to one of these:

The leak is coming from the underneath the handle i.e. the bit you lift up to open and close the water flow. Can you just pull the handle off somehow to get to the source of the leak? If not how do you get to it? I'm hoping they are fixable as a new one is about £150!

Thanks.

HI

either the handle screws out or there is little screw at the rear ,top of the tap.use small allen key .remove top cap then access to the cartridge.
 
Thanks! After inspecting, it's actually behind the red and blue plastic clip, just pops out. Thanks for your help, it pointed me in the right direction!
