A real person answers, day or night
The drip that's louder at 2am than it ever is by day
Left running for months, one steady drip adds up to real money on the quarterly bill, though the actual repair rarely takes long once someone's on site. Call (02) 9072 0597 and we'll get it sorted properly.
Tapware original to a very different era
Original tapware is common on properties dating back to the post-war boom
Gravity does something extra wherever a block genuinely tilts toward the dam
Roosevelt Avenue and Kirra Road have seen less kitchen and bathroom renovation than most streets nearby
Tap repair services we provide
Whatever's actually causing the drip gets fixed at the source, not masked over:
Washer and cartridge replacement
Replacing whichever internal part has failed, matched to the exact tap model so the repair performs like new rather than a rough approximation that drips again within months.
Mixer tap rebuilds
Fully rebuilding a mixer tap's internal cartridge and seals, restoring smooth operation and a proper shut-off without needing to replace the whole fitting.
Outdoor and garden tap repairs
Fixing stiff, dripping or seized outdoor taps, exposed to weather in a way indoor fittings never are, with parts chosen to hold up under that extra exposure.
Stuck or seized tap repairs
Freeing and repairing a tap that's seized from age or corrosion, replacing internal components where needed rather than forcing a fitting that's likely to snap under pressure.
Households across the suburb dealing with ageing tapware
- Families near Allambie Heights Public School often notice a drip in the busiest room in the house first A quick, same-visit fix in a family bathroom or kitchen matters more than which brand of tap gets restored.
- Lever-style handles come up often as a request near Scalabrini Village Where the existing fitting allows it, we'll happily swap to something easier to grip while we're already there fixing the drip.
- Gardens along the streets backing onto Manly Dam Reserve rely heavily on outdoor tapware A seized or leaking garden tap on one of those larger blocks is a common find during warmer months.
Two tap problems people live with longer than they should
The tap that needs two hands to turn off
A tap that needs real muscle to shut off fully is telling you an internal seal has already given up, and cranking it harder each time only speeds up damage to the tap body itself.
The mixer that drips from the spout, not underneath
A drip from the spout while the tap's off almost always traces to the internal cartridge rather than the visible fitting, and swapping that part properly stops the drip at the source.
Fair, upfront pricing. No surprises.
What a small drip actually costs left alone
- Water waste adds up faster than most people expect. Left running continuously, a single drip can tip well past a thousand litres a year with nothing to show for it.
- A worn washer puts extra strain on the whole fitting. Ignoring the early sign lets wear spread further into the fitting, turning a small part swap into a full tap replacement.
- Outdoor drips do more than waste water. A constantly dripping garden tap can erode soil, stain paving and encourage damp patches nobody wants near the house.
The price we quote is the price you pay. No exceptions.

Fixing your dripping tap, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us

Quote before work

- 03
Rebuild and drip-test
The worn washer, cartridge or seal gets replaced with a properly matched part, then the tap is run and checked closely for any remaining drip before the job is signed off.

Good questions, straight answers
Tap repair questions Allambie Heights locals ask most
Why does a tap start dripping after years of working fine?
The washer, O-ring or ceramic disc inside wears down with everyday use, and once that seal degrades enough, water finds its way past it even with the tap fully closed.
Is a dripping tap really worth calling a plumber over?
Yes, a slow drip wastes a genuinely large amount of water over a year, and the fix itself is usually quick, so the cost of ignoring it outweighs the cost of booking someone.
Can any mixer tap brand actually be repaired, or do some need full replacement?
Most mixer taps can be rebuilt with matching internal parts, though a handful of older or discontinued models genuinely can't be sourced anymore, and we'll say so plainly rather than guessing.
Do outdoor taps fail differently to indoor ones?
Often, yes, exposure to weather and less frequent use means outdoor tap washers and seals can perish faster, and a stiff or leaking garden tap is a genuinely common callout here.
How long does a standard tap repair actually take?
Most single-tap repairs, whether it's a washer, cartridge or full mixer rebuild, are finished within the one visit, tested for drips before the plumber leaves.
If a repaired tap starts dripping again, are we covered?
The Lifetime Labour Warranty stands behind it indefinitely, so should the same drip return from our own repair, we come back and fix it properly at no charge to you.
