Sink waste is dripping. The washers seem a bit shitty. Everything is ok. Then if it moves by someone getting something out from under the sink it drips. Everything is tight.
Never had it before.
Should I replace the washers? Any recommendations for decent washer replacement?
Cheers all

Cheers. It seems to just be one joint near the trap. Not straight off the waste.
I’ll have to monitor it.

We had trouble with a shower waste (I know you said it wasn't the connection to the waste and its under the sink but presumably its still rubber gasket based?). It needed tighting ridiculkously too much. I got it completely off and found the idiot fitters (a long way from being plumbers) had covered all the threads and washer with crumbs of tile cement.
Cleaned up under a tap, hand tight and then worked a treat. Could yours also be a dirty gasket or very old one needing replacement?
