She probably needs a new black washer or ptfe tape around the thread. If they fail then she could try silicone around the joint thats leaking, but only when dry, thanks. Lee (LB Plumbing).

As, plumber said before this makes me mad, get in touch with council and make sure they are aware of the problem and how serious this is if this not taken serious then go to citizens advice they will sort it for you, also local paper always like a story best wishes colin.

If the Local Authority are the landlords they have a legal responsability to resolve this, if the housing department are slow to act speak to the enviromental health department
