It may depend on the washers: where they are, how easily replaced, etc.Lawyer (solicitor) - retired from practice, now supervising solicitor in a university law clinic. I do not advise by private message.

I've no idea if there are any relevant legal decisions or definitions that would help answer the question but I would think that as a matter of common sense tap washers do wear out and do need replacing from time to time so I'd say that's normal wear and tear.All opinions expressed are based on my personal experience.
