dripping tap

A drop or droplet is a small column of liquid, bounded completely or almost completely by free surfaces. A drop may form when liquid accumulates at the lower end of a tube or other surface boundary, producing a hanging drop called a pendant drop. Drops may also be formed by the condensation of a vapor or by atomization of a larger mass of solid.

    dripping tap

    Hi all, I'm off to mend a dripping kitchen tap later this week (can't believe I've still got questions for taps). But anyway... 1. Would you automatically change washers on both hot and cold tap?

I think it's from my hot water pipe as it stops when I switch off the hot water supply. I presume it means I need to change the washer, however, I have no idea how to access it...
