Leaky Tap? We Fix It Fast and Efficiently!
Leaking Tap Repairs
Leaking taps might seem like a small issue, but they can lead to bigger problems if not fixed. They increase water bills and can cause structural damage to your property. A leaking tap can also lead to mold and mildew growth, affecting both health and the property. Addressing leaking taps promptly is crucial. Same Day Trades offers reliable leaking tap repairs in Perth. Our plumbers handle all types of tap problems and ensure your plumbing system functions properly.
Common Causes of Leaking Taps
Leaking taps often occur due to worn-out washers. Washers degrade over time from regular use and water pressure. When they wear out, water seeps through and causes leaks. This problem is common in compression taps, which use washers to control water flow. A damaged valve seat is another cause of leaks. The valve seat connects the tap to the spout. Corrosion or sediment buildup can damage the valve seat, causing water to leak around the spout. Loose or broken parts like O-rings, seals, and nuts can lead to leaks as well. These parts wear out with frequent use, resulting in drips.
Improper installation may also result in leaking taps. Incorrect sizes, poor fitting, or improper sealing can cause constant drips. Professional installation helps avoid these problems. High water pressure can also strain tap components and cause leaks. Adjusting the water pressure can prevent this. Mixer taps often leak due to worn-out cartridges that control water flow and temperature. Over time, cartridges can wear out or block, causing drips. Replacing the cartridge usually resolves the issue. Understanding these causes can help homeowners prevent future leaks and keep taps in good condition.
Types of Taps We Repair
Ignoring a leaking tap can lead to increased costs and damage. Even a small drip can waste thousands of liters of water each year, raising water bills. Continuous leaks can cause water to pool under sinks, behind walls, or around the tap base. Over time, this can damage cabinetry, floors, and even the foundation of a building. Repairing such damage often involves replacing damaged wood, drywall, and flooring.
Excess moisture from a leaking tap can cause mold and mildew to grow. Mold not only affects the appearance of a home but also poses health risks, especially for people with allergies or asthma. Fixing a leaking tap also conserves water, which is important in regions like Perth where water is a valuable resource. A leaking tap can also indicate a more serious plumbing issue, such as pipe corrosion or pressure problems. Addressing leaks early can prevent larger, more costly repairs.
Common Causes of Leaking Taps
At Same Day Trades, we repair a wide range of tap types. Our experienced plumbers handle various models and brands, providing comprehensive service:
1. Compression Taps: These traditional taps use washers to control water flow. We replace worn-out washers, seals, and other parts to stop leaks.
2. Ceramic Disc Taps: These modern taps use ceramic discs to control water flow. While durable, they can develop leaks over time. We replace or repair ceramic discs to restore function.
3. Ball Taps: Ball taps are common in kitchens and use a rotating ball to control water temperature and flow. We fix leaks by replacing worn-out O-rings, valve seats, or the entire ball mechanism.
4. Cartridge Taps: Cartridge taps use a cartridge to control water flow and temperature. Leaks can occur if the cartridge is damaged or worn out. We offer cartridge replacement and repair services.
5. Mixer Taps: Mixer taps combine hot and cold water and use one lever to control flow and temperature. Leaks often occur from damaged cartridges or seals. Our plumbers repair or replace mixer tap parts.
6. Sensor Taps: Sensor taps are popular in modern homes and businesses for their touchless operation. Though less likely to leak, problems with sensors or valves can cause drips. We offer specialized repairs for sensor taps.
