Common Tap Problems

Signs Your Taps or Outlets Need Attention

A tap that drips every few seconds might seem like a minor annoyance, but over a year that steady leak can waste a surprising amount of water and add real dollars to your bill. Worn washers, damaged O-rings and failing ceramic discs are usually the cause, and left unchecked, they can lead to corrosion around the tap body or staining in your sink and bath.

Other outlets cause bigger headaches. A wall mixer leaking into the cavity behind your shower tiles can quietly damage plasterboard and framing long before you notice a stain, while a stiff or hard-to-turn tap often points to a failing cartridge or grit trapped in the valve seat. Outdoor taps and laundry mixers that have seized or begun weeping are just as common, particularly on older homes in and around Wakerley where original tapware is decades old.

If a tap won't shut off completely, or you've spotted water tracking into a cabinet or the ceiling below a bathroom, it's worth treating that as urgent. Small leaks rarely stay small, and the sooner they're diagnosed, the less damage and expense you're likely to face.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Tap & Outlet Repair FAQs

      We get asked plenty of questions about dripping taps, stiff mixers and outdoor outlets. Here are some of the most common ones, answered by our experienced plumbing team.

      A dripping tap usually comes down to a worn washer, O-ring or ceramic disc inside the fitting rather than anything to do with how tightly the handle is turned. Tightening harder can actually damage the tap further and put unnecessary strain on the internal components. Once the worn part is identified and replaced with the correct washer or cartridge for your tap's make, the drip should stop for good.
      It's worth treating a leaking tap as a priority rather than something to put off. Even a slow drip adds up in wasted water over time, and if the leak is coming from behind a wall mixer or under a sink, it can lead to hidden damage to cabinetry, plasterboard or flooring before it becomes obvious. Getting it looked at early generally means a simpler repair down the track.
      In many cases we can source a replacement cartridge, spindle or washer that matches your existing tap, particularly for common brands. If parts for an older tap are no longer available, or the tap body itself has corroded or cracked, a full replacement is usually the more reliable option. We'll always explain which approach makes the most sense for your situation before any work begins.
      A shower mixer leaking into the wall cavity is often due to a failed cartridge, a cracked valve body, or deteriorated sealant around the fitting. Because this type of leak isn't always visible straight away, it can cause damage to wall linings before it's noticed. Our plumbers can isolate the mixer, inspect the internal components, and carry out the necessary repair or replacement.
      Outdoor taps often seize due to age, corrosion or mineral build-up inside the valve. Depending on the condition of the tap body and fittings, we can sometimes free it up and replace the internal washer, but a heavily corroded or cracked outdoor tap is usually better replaced with a new hose cock or garden tap to avoid ongoing issues.
      Yes, we regularly service timed-flow, lever and sensor taps in commercial amenities, aged care facilities and strata common areas, where constant use tends to wear out washers and cartridges faster than in a typical home. We understand the importance of minimising disruption in these settings and work efficiently to get fittings back in service.
