Leaking Taps

When it comes to day-to-day comfort and convenience, it doesn’t get any better than a hot shower or bath. From the moment your eyes first open in the morning, the warmth of a hot shower invigorates your senses and helps to put a spring in your step. As the day winds down, a hot soak in the tub helps to relax and soothe the body and mind, giving you the perfect way to melt away the stress of the day and prepare for the sweet rest of a goodnight’s sleep. But, leaky taps can be more than a mere nuisance–they can be downright annoying. Not only does the sound of dripping water literally drive you crazy, but this seemingly small problem can actually waste a significant amount of valuable water – and drive up your water bill! That’s why it’s important to get to the bottom of the leaky taps as quickly as possible. 

Our team of experienced professionals can inspect your taps to identify the cause of the leak and provide the right solutions to help you put an end to the leaky tap woes.

Frequently Asked Questions

A leaky tap can happen for a number of reasons. The most common is a worn out washer, but it might also be due to a dislodged O-Ring or damaged valve seat. Excessively high water pressure and the age of the tapware may also contribute to leakage.
Depending on the size and volume of the water drip, and how long the leak is left unrepaired, you can potentially waste up to 20,000 litres of water a year. Water you’ll pay for when the bill arrives!
You don’t need a plumber to fix a dripping tap, but it is recommended. If the cause of your leaking tap is caused by more major plumbing problems, you won’t know until those problems need extra repairs later on.
For a temporary fix, tie a piece of string around the aerator and cut it so the end of the string touches the basis. This will stop the dripping sound. Instead of falling from the aerator to the basin and making a sound, the drip will silently travel down the length of the string.
