SERVICES
Leaking taps can develop for a variety of reasons, often worsening over time if left untreated. Some of the most common leaking tap issues we attend include:
Common Leaking Tap issues
Over time, washers and O-rings can deteriorate due to regular use and water pressure. When these components wear out, they can no longer form a proper seal, causing taps to drip or leak continuously.
Worn Washers & O-Rings
Loose handles or worn internal components can prevent taps from closing fully. This often leads to persistent dripping and can cause further wear on internal parts if not repaired promptly.
Loose or Damaged Tap Handles
Modern mixer taps rely on internal cartridges to control water flow and temperature. A damaged or worn cartridge can result in dripping taps, inconsistent water temperature or difficulty turning the tap on and off.
Faulty Tap Cartridges
Excessive water pressure places strain on tap components, accelerating wear and increasing the likelihood of leaks. Pressure-related issues can affect multiple fixtures throughout the property.
High Water Pressure
Hard water minerals and corrosion can accumulate inside taps and fittings, restricting movement and preventing proper sealing. This can lead to ongoing leaks and reduced tap performance.
Corrosion & Mineral Build-Up
Older taps may lack replacement parts or no longer meet current efficiency standards. In these cases, tap replacement may be the most cost-effective long-term solution for improved performance, reliability and water efficiency.
