Is A Dripping Tap an Emergency?
A dripping tap is not a plumbing emergency. You can book in a normal plumber to come in on another day to do the repair. The issue you have with a leaking tap is money wasted through the loss of water. Your bill will increase steadily and then rapidly as the leak gets worse.
A constant dripping tap (or taps) can lead to an increased water bill. This is even more true if the drip is more of a flow.
A faucet that doesn’t even close is a totally different matter. Turn the water off and contact an emergency plumber to do the tap repair.
