Tap repair and replacement

A dripping tap wastes water and, on the hot side, energy. We replace washers and ceramic cartridges, fix leaks at the base, and fit new kitchen, basin and bath taps, mixers and outside taps.

Hard water and taps

London’s hard water wears cartridges and furs up aerators. If a tap is stiff or splutters, a new cartridge often fixes it without replacing the whole tap.

What customers say

“Very good service. On-time. Upfront rate quotes were reasonable. They diagnosed a water heater problem as part of the same service call and it was fixed quickly. I'll use them again no question.”

Tap repair & replacement: common questions

Can you fit taps I have bought?

Yes. Check they suit your water pressure: some designer taps need higher pressure than a loft-tank system provides.
