Leaking Taps

Replace or Repair your Leaking Taps

Leaky taps can be a constant source of annoyance and a drain on your wallet. Deciding whether to replace or repair them depends on the severity of the leak, the type of tap, and your budget.

For minor drips from a washer or a loose cartridge, a simple repair kit and some DIY skills might be enough. However, for older taps, extensive leaks, or more complex problems like damaged valve seats, replacing the entire tap is often the most cost-effective solution in the long run.

Let's Go!

Here are some signs that indicate it’s time to call Amalgamated Services for a leaky tap, rather than attempting a DIY repair:

 

  • Severity of the Leak: A slow drip might be manageable with a repair kit, but a steady stream or a forceful spray necessitates professional help. Extensive leaks can quickly lead to water damage, so prompt action is crucial.
  • Type of Tap: Modern taps with replaceable cartridges might be DIY-friendly, but older taps with intricate mechanisms or specialty types like ceramic disc taps are best left to us for proper repair.
  • Location of the Leak: If the leak originates from the base of the tap or within the faucet body, it likely requires a more complex repair beyond a simple washer replacement. We can diagnose the problem and access hidden areas for proper fixing.
  • Your DIY Skills and Confidence: If you’re uncomfortable working with plumbing fixtures or lack the necessary tools and knowledge, it’s wiser to call a plumber. Attempted DIY fixes on complex leaks can sometimes worsen the problem.
  • Multiple Leak Sources: If you have multiple taps leaking throughout your house, it could indicate a more widespread issue with your plumbing system. We can diagnose the root cause and address it effectively.
  • Tools and Expertise: We use tools like leak detectors and pipe wrenches to efficiently diagnose and repair leaks. We also have the knowledge and experience to handle unexpected complications during the repair process.

When in doubt, it’s always better to err on the side of caution. Calling us for a leaky tap can save you time, money, and potential headaches from DIY mishaps or water damage
