You will need to get a qualified engineer in to replace it for you. The seal may have perished.

Have you qualified as an actual engineer yet? If not leave it alone and get a pro in. As I said the seal may have perished.

The screw is holding the valve in , have you removed it or just loosened it

That’s why I have told him to not mess with it mate.
@townfanjon it got replaced with a new valve by an engineer and when they went i saw drips coming from the small screw so i tried to tighten it but it still leaks from the screw. i noticed literally 20 minutes after they left once i saw a pile of water around the counter

So as you are training you thought, I’ll tell what, I’m going to have a go at this myself?
@Harvest Fields lol how did you read my mind. i know that we should be gas safe to mess around with boilers etc especially with gas which i dont joke around with because its serious. But i thought that because its a water issue i will try to tighten just in case it might be loose. But it didn't work
