A real person answers, day or night

One dripping tap can waste more water than a whole household saves

That steady overnight drip adds up to bucketloads by morning and a swollen bill by winter; call (02) 9072 0592 and a licensed plumber reseats or rewashers the tap and gives you a firm, clean shutoff again.

Why a home here carries more taps than most

Tap trouble here is not confined to the kitchen and bathroom:

More taps than the average home

On the generous blocks near Peakhurst Park and along the leafy streets off Henry Lawson Drive, houses carry garden taps, hose points and often a second outdoor line, so there are simply more taps to wear, seize and weep than a compact home has.

Old supply behind every one

Many of these taps still sit on galvanised branches that have narrowed with corrosion, which is why a tap can drip at the spout and still deliver weak flow, and why a repair sometimes means addressing the pipe as well as the washer.

Tap and mixer repair services we cover

Almost any tap can be brought back to a clean, firm shutoff rather than replaced, and our plumbing team fits a quality mixer where a fixture is beyond saving, so here is what we take on:

Dripping taps

A spout that drips steadily usually needs nothing more than a new washer or seat, and we reseat and rewasher it to stop the drip, the noise and the slow, steady loss down the plughole every single hour.

Mixer replacement

When a cartridge mixer weeps from the base or will not shut off cleanly, the cartridge or the whole mixer has failed, so we rebuild or replace it with a quality unit that gives a smooth, reliable action for years.

Garden and outdoor taps

Garden taps and hose cocks split, seize and weep at the wall connection, so we replace the worn ones and, on the bigger blocks, trace and repair the buried line before a wet patch of lawn signals trouble.

Laundry and stop taps

The laundry taps and quarter-turn stop valves around the house seize solid with age and mineral scale, so we free them up or fit new ones, making sure every isolation point actually turns the moment a hose bursts or a fixture needs work.

Why taps are the repair every home eventually needs

Wear that never stops

A tap is the one fitting used dozens of times a day, so washers flatten, seats pit and cartridges stiffen on a schedule no household can dodge, which is why tap repairs are the steadiest call we get in the whole area.

Renovation-era mixers reaching their day

The kitchens and bathrooms updated across the last twenty years fitted cartridge mixers that are now wearing out together, so many homes here are due a round of mixer rebuilds rather than another temporary tighten.

Common tap problems we fix

Beyond the obvious drip, two tap faults send homeowners looking for a plumber, and both are quick to fix once the cause is read correctly rather than guessed at:

The tap that will not stop

A tap you have to crank hard and still see dribble has a worn seat the washer can no longer seal against, so we reface or renew the seat, and a light, clean shutoff returns instead of the constant weep.

The shuddering tap

Water hammer, that bang when you turn a tap off, points to a loose washer or a surge in the line, so we track down the cause and steady the flow, ending the knock that loosens fittings over time.

Why a dripping tap is not as small as it seems

A single tap seems the smallest job imaginable, yet a slow drip is a meter running around the clock and a nuisance that only ever grows louder and more costly:

  • The waste is real and constant A steady drip loses litres around the clock, day after day, and over a quarter that quietly rewrites a water bill for the sake of a part worth almost nothing.
  • Worn taps damage themselves Cranking harder on a failing tap chews out the seat and spindle, so a quick washer job left too long becomes a full tap replacement instead.
  • A seized stop tap is a hazard When the isolation taps have all seized, a burst hose cannot be shut off fast, turning a minor failure into a flooded room while you hunt for the mains.

How it works

How a tap repair runs, step by step

  1. 01

    Call and tell us

    Ring (02) 9072 0592 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.

  2. 02

    Quote before work

    Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.

  3. 03

    Reseated and shutoff-tested

    New washers, seats or cartridges fitted, your plumber runs the tap hot and cold, checks for a clean shutoff with no drip or shudder, and confirms the isolation valve turns freely before writing the job off as properly done.

  4. 04

    Backed for life

    Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.

Why choose Your Plumber Peakhurst

Fixed prices, kept

Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.

Licensed and insured

Your Plumber Peakhurst works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.

Lifetime Labour Warranty

Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.

Genuinely local response

We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.

Where we work

Areas we service

Tap and mixer work runs the same in every direction, so we reseat, rewasher and renew tapware in Mortdale, Riverwood, Lugarno, Penshurst and Peakhurst Heights, indoors and out, restoring a firm shutoff on the very first call.

Good questions, straight answers

Tap repair questions we hear across Peakhurst

How much does a tap repair cost?

Usually very little, as most drips are just a washer or cartridge, but since it follows the fixture, we quote nothing to look and confirm a written price before starting.

Can a dripping tap be repaired or does it need replacing?

Nearly always repaired, because a fresh washer, seat or cartridge restores most taps to a clean shutoff, and a new mixer is only needed once the body itself has worn past a dependable fix.

Do you fix outdoor and garden taps?

Yes, the big gardens here mean plenty of outdoor taps, hose cocks and buried lines, and we repair or replace the lot so a seized or weeping garden tap never quietly waterlogs the yard.

Why does my tap drip but still run weak?

In older homes here that combination points to a worn washer on a corroded galvanised branch, so the tap needs a reseat and the ageing supply pipe often needs attention to bring the flow back.

Can you fix a tap on the first visit?

Almost always, because the van carries washers, seats, common cartridges and mixer spares, so a dripping tap is diagnosed and repaired then and there rather than left running while parts are ordered.

Is the tap repair guaranteed?

Yes, our tapware work is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty, so if a repaired tap starts to drip again, fixing it is ours to cover, not yours.
