Bathtub faucet leakingElche, Valencian Community

A bathtub faucet that drips when turned off wastes water and can stain the tub surface over time. The most common causes are a worn-out rubber washer or O-ring inside the valve stem, corroded valve seats, a failing cartridge in single-handle models, or mineral buildup preventing a tight seal. If the diverter valve also leaks, water trickles from the spout even when the shower is running. A licensed plumber can disassemble the valve, replace washers, seats, or the entire cartridge, and ensure the diverter operates correctly.
