What is the cause of a leaking tap?

A common cause of a leaking tap is a worn-out washer or a washer that has been installed incorrectly. But there are other reasons that may cause a leaking tap:

• O-ring – the O-ring is a small disc that holds the faucet handle in place. Dripping near the faucet
  handle may indicate that the O-ring needs replacing.
• Aged tapware – In some instances, it is more beneficial to replace aged tapware over repairing. A
  leak due to aged tapware will most likely become a re-occurring issue.
• Loose, worn out or corroded parts – seals, the valve seat or other parts within the tapware
  become lose or worn out over time. Replacing these parts will stop a leaking tap.
• Water pressure – if your water pressure is too high this may cause a leaking tap. A water flow
  restrictor can assist in this instance.
• Mixer tap cartridge – a mixer tap uses a cartridge, not a washer. A leaking mixer tap cause is often
  a cartridge that requires replacement.
