say goodbye to dripping taps with prycless plumbing & gas
That steady drip from your kitchen or bathroom tap might seem harmless, but it’s far from it. Over time, even a minor leak can waste tens of thousands of litres of water—enough to fill a small swimming pool each year. Beyond the environmental impact, the excess moisture can seep into surrounding surfaces, leading to stains, mould, and long-term damage to walls, ceilings, and floors.
Whether it's in your home or commercial property, leaking taps are best dealt with promptly. Let our licensed plumbers take care of the problem quickly and professionally, saving you water, money, and future headaches.
Tap Repairs for Every Situation
From minor drips to more complex tap issues, we handle it all. Sometimes, a worn-out washer or a quick internal adjustment is all that’s needed to stop the leak. In other cases, mineral build-up inside the tap can reduce water pressure or cause uneven water flow, which may require cleaning or full replacement of the tapware.
If your tap is badly damaged and water won’t stop running, it could be a sign of a more serious internal fault. In such cases, it’s wise to shut off your mains water supply to prevent further water loss or property damage until a plumber can attend.
No matter the size of the job, Pryceless Plumbing is ready to respond quickly. Our fully licensed plumbers will assess the problem, explain your options clearly, and carry out the right fix to get your tap working like new again.
why tap repairs matter
It’s easy to ignore a leaking tap until you see the impact. A single tap dripping once per second can waste over 20,000 litres of water per year. That’s not just bad for your water bill, it’s bad for the environment!
Leaking taps can also:
- Damage walls, cabinets, and floors
- Cause mould and mildew
- Lead to corrosion in pipes and fittings
- Create hard-to-remove stains and mineral build-up
Fixing your tap early prevents these issues and keeps your plumbing system running efficiently.
common tap problems we repair
At Pryceless Plumbing, our licensed plumbers can repair all types of taps, including mixer taps, wall-mounted taps, quarter-turn ceramic disc taps, and more. Common issues we fix include:
Dripping or Leaking Taps:
Usually caused by worn washers, O-rings, or valve seats. These are straightforward to repair with the right tools and parts.
Stiff or Hard-to-turn Handles:
Often due to internal corrosion, scale build-up, or dried-out lubricants inside the tap.
Low Water Pressure:
May be caused by a blocked aerator or mineral deposits in the tap itself.
Water Spraying from the Spout:
This could be a sign of damaged internal components or an incorrect water seal.
