Water running down tap

[stevepbuk]

Hi,

I have recently moved into a new house and an experiancing a strange problem with the taps in my bathroom and toilet. The water is coming out of the nozzle of the taps as expected, but is occasionally running up the base of the tap and onto the outside of the basin part of the sink. Can anyone suggest how to sort this out.

Thanks in advance.

Steve

Try turning them down a bit with isolators or change the taps.

Am struggling to understand this flow of water up the outside of the tap.

Some do flow back along the spout of the tap.

Just clean the spout outlet with a limescale remover. You`ve got a divided flow - like some bloke I stood next to in the Gents Hypospadias

Or put a rubber contraceptive over the spout and cut the tip off
