Taps: Water does not shut off straight away

[garrymum]

Hi

Not a huge problem, just a little annoying (to me anyway!!!)

I have the following taps

When I turn the taps off, water does not shut off immediately. It slowly runs for a couple of seconds, then drips for several more seconds then finally stops.

Anyone any ideas?

its probably only what left in the pipework between the valve and spout.

Hi
what are the taps feeding? why do you expect them to shut off water immediately?
probably agree with last response. there will be water between tap and final outlet to drain.

They are concealed basin tape. Our 'normal' tapsm once turned off do not drip, but I suppose they don't have extra several inches between the valve and the faucet end. As long as it's nothing wrong with the tap it's ok. Just wanted to make sure before plasterboarded and tiling over them!!
