Tap Repairs in Kippa-Ring

A tap that runs all night wastes water you pay for, and on this peninsula's flat blocks that water goes nowhere fast. We repair and replace every kind of tap in local homes, from the kitchen mixer to the tap on the back fence.

Old Pipes Under Old Tapware

  1. The era tells the story

    Most of the houses here date from the 1960s to 1980s, and many still carry ageing galvanised supply lines that fur up internally and choke flow long before the tap itself is faulty.

  2. Pressure reads low

    When a "weak" tap turns out to be a narrowed galvanised line, we say so before quoting, because a shiny new mixer won't fix a pipe problem.

  3. Grit from old mains

    Street water mains laid in asbestos cement during that same boom can shed sediment that scars tap seats, so fresh washers fail early until the seat is dressed or the tap replaced.

Tap Repairs We Carry Out

Wherever the tap sits, this is the work our plumbers carry out around the suburb every week:

  1. Dripping Taps

    We strip the tap, dress or replace the worn seat and washer, reassemble it and test the flow properly, so the drip stops instead of coming back in a fortnight.

  2. Stiff Mixers

    Ceramic discs inside a mixer wear or crack, and we replace the cartridge, flush the line of any grit and refit the handle so the whole tap turns smoothly again.

  3. Garden and Yard Taps

    Outdoor taps cop the sun and the weather, so we replace the jumper or the whole head unit, check the wall flange and stop the weeping at the handle.

  4. Tap Replacements

    When a tap is past saving, we supply and fit a suitable replacement, from bathroom basin mixers to laundry sets, and quote the job before the old one comes off.

Common Tap Problems

  1. The Drip That Won't Stop

    A worn washer or a scored seat is usually the cause, and the constant trickle is water you pay for, so we smooth the seat and stop the meter ticking.

  2. A Tap That Squeals

    Air or water hammering through a partly closed line makes the noise, and fitting the right valve or securing a loose pipe stops the shriek, often on the same visit.

  3. Mixer Dripping From the Base

    Water under the cartridge usually means the old body o-rings have perished, and swapping them costs a fraction of a new mixer, which we'll say before selling you anything.

  4. Garden Tap Soaking the Wall

    A worn gland nut or cracked head lets water run down the wall, and replacing the head unit keeps the wall dry and the foundations out of trouble.

Why a Drip Is Worth Fixing

A single dripping tap can waste litres a day, and in a home with old pipe behind the wall, that moisture finds its way somewhere you'd rather it didn't:

  1. Your water bill

    Every drip is metered water. Fixing the tap stops you paying for water you never use.

  2. The timber and brick

    A tap weeping into a cabinet or down a wall soaks the frame behind it, and a repair costs a fraction of the rot that follows.

  3. The next emergency

    A tap that keeps failing is telling you something about the pipe or the pressure, and knowing that early beats a burst on a Sunday.

Tap Repair Questions Kippa-Ring Locals Ask

Call (07) 3522 5623

Why is my Kippa-Ring tap still dripping after a new washer?

Usually the seat is scored or the line sheds grit from old galvanised pipe, so we flatten the seat, flush the line and fit the washer properly, and the drip stays gone.

Is weak flow at my tap a Unitywater problem?

Unitywater owns the meter and the street mains, but every pipe on your side of the meter is yours, so we test where the restriction sits before anyone gets blamed.

Do 1960s Kippa-Ring houses need special tap parts?

Yes, and homes of that era often need washers and head units to suit older thread sizes, which our plumbers carry, so the original tap look survives the repair.

Can you fix the taps in my rental property?

We do, and we provide the itemised invoice your property manager or owner needs, because rentals around the shopping centre and station get the paperwork, not just a fix.

Should I repair or replace a leaking mixer?

If the cartridge is still available, a swap usually beats the price of a new mixer, and we quote both options before touching anything, so the choice stays entirely yours.
