Signs Your Taps or Outlets Need Attention

Most tap problems start small: a faint drip at night, a handle that feels stiffer than it used to, or water trickling from the spout even when it's fully closed. These are usually signs of a worn washer, a failing cartridge or a scored valve seat, and they rarely fix themselves. Left unattended, a steady drip can add hundreds of litres to your water usage over a few months.

Other outlets cause more obvious trouble, such as a wall mixer leaking behind the tiles, a garden tap that won't shut off, or a shower diverter that refuses to switch between the rose and the spout. These issues often point to problems further inside the wall cavity or pipework, which can lead to hidden moisture, mould or damage if it tracks into timber framing or plasterboard.

If your tapware is old, mismatched, or simply past its best, upgrading to newer, water-efficient fittings can also help lower your water bill and refresh the look of a kitchen or bathroom. Whatever the issue, our plumbers can diagnose the cause quickly and explain your options in plain language before any work begins.
