Anything else I'd have to pull my own taps apart and try to work it out- and I don't like that idea. FIWH?

so you installed the taps? and you have them turned off real tight? did the water slow at all when u turned them off? are the taps u installed new or were they just lying around spare? any info u can think of will help but id say its gotta be washers? sometimes if they have been sitting for ages they go hard and wont seal properly

yeah i would say its definitely the washers being hard. i changed the washers in my taps last yr because they were not sealing and the new washers i put in were hard so for the first day the taps were really hard to turn off had to really screw em down . they softened up pretty quick like a day or 2. other than that im completely lost

should be able to tighten them enough to stop the trickle though i would think. i dont know what u think supa? is there a way to soften them that i dont know about or do u just have to wait for them to do it naturally?

Its just the way they are. Ya used to have rubber ones that went tight str8 away but they use that plastic neoprene shit now. Only way i found to soften them un naturally is to use hot water
