Please can anyone advise on a dripping shower?

All that will do, if it fills with water, is put strain on the rose once it fills up.

Put a bucket or basin under it.

read post #1 again, the OP will need a big rubber band to hold the bucket on his/her head:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

No, I'm sorry but you are wrong, if it drip from the rose it's passed all the other seals, only the cartridge seal can allow water in from the mains.

If you care to read what the OP now says you will see I'm right.

(which makes you wrong:rotfl:):o:o:o

Applying a little logic saves any "back tracking"

No need to say sorry

If you look at her post i was trying to show her where the drip was coming from so that she could see for her self.

I know water would not travel that far up a pipe without pressure to push it,I once had some one who had a dripping shower head ever time she had a bath it turned out to be condensation

If it drips at the rate of once per second, it may take a full day to fill a 2 gallon bucket. Use the full, or partially full bucket or bowl, to flush the lavatory which lives next door. This option will cost you no more than you are currently paying for your water. I hate the thought of water going to waste, but if it really is a drip, rather than a trickle, I don't think that the cost per day would be more than a couple of pence, even if you are on a water meter. Hope that helps.

Or sit the other way in the bath!
