Stop Dripping Taps Before They Lead to Bigger Problems

A dripping tap might seem like a minor annoyance, but even a slow drip can waste thousands of litres of water over time. This can not only increase your water bill, but also contribute to unnecessary water waste. Whether you’re dealing with leaking, noisy, or low-flow taps, or loose, damaged, or rusted ones, it’s important to find an experienced plumber before it leads to further water damage or more expensive repairs.

At Precision Plumbing and Earthworks, we provide professional tap repairs for Melbourne homeowners and businesses. Our licensed plumbers repair all types of taps, identify the exact cause of the problem, and recommend the most cost-effective solution to keep your home’s water running smoothly.

  • Mixer taps
  • Shower taps
  • Bath taps
  • Laundry taps

Answering Your Questions About Leaking Taps

Who uses your tap repair services?

Our tap repair services are suitable for homeowners, landlords, tenants, body corporates, and businesses experiencing leaks, dripping taps, noisy operation, reduced water flow, damaged fittings, or ageing tapware. We work across Melbourne, providing the same reliable service and honest advice for every job, big or small.

What causes most leaking taps?

Most leaking taps are caused by worn washers, ageing rubber washers, damaged ceramic discs, faulty O-rings, deteriorated seals, loose fittings or worn internal components. In some cases, problems are caused by high water pressure, mineral buildup, cracked seats, or a damaged valve seat.

What are some signs I need my taps repaired?

You may need professional tap repairs if your tap is leaking, dripping, rusted, damaged, noisy, difficult to turn, has poor water flow, or is leaking around the base or tap handle.

Can you repair all types of taps?

Yes. Our licensed and insured plumbers repair mixer taps, bath taps, shower taps, laundry taps, garden taps, kitchen taps, and more. We’ll always assess whether repair is practical before recommending a new tap.

When should a tap be replaced instead of repaired?

If the tap body is cracked, badly rusted, obsolete, or has been repaired multiple times, replacing the tap is often the better long-term solution. We’ll always explain your options and provide honest advice before carrying out any work.

Can a dripping tap really waste a lot of water?

Absolutely. A constant slow drip can waste hundreds or even thousands of litres of water each year. Repairing a leaking tap helps reduce water waste, lower your water bill, and conserve water.

Do you offer same-day service?

Yes, where availability allows, we offer same-day service throughout Melbourne for many general plumbing jobs, including tap repairs.
