Tap Repairs & Replacements in Newbury & Berkshire — FAQs

Can you repair a dripping or leaking tap?

Yes. Most dripping tap repairs and leaking tap repairs are a washer, O-ring or tap cartridge replacement. If the body or spout is damaged, we will recommend a replacement tap instead of repeating a short-lived repair.

Should I repair my tap or replace it?

If the internals are worn but the body is sound, a tap repair is usually enough. If the tap is seized, badly scaled, leaking from the body or no longer matches the suite, tap replacement is the better option. We diagnose on site and explain both before work starts.

Do you fit kitchen and bathroom taps?

Yes. We carry out kitchen tap installation, kitchen tap replacement, bathroom tap installation and bathroom tap replacement, including basin taps, mixer taps, monobloc taps and pillar taps. We can also fit a tap you have already bought.

Can you replace mixer tap cartridges and washers?

Yes. Mixer tap repair often means a ceramic disc or cartridge change. We carry common parts on the van and can source replacements from major brands. If a mixer tap replacement is needed, we advise on hole centres, pressure and finish first.
