Worn-Out Washers
The most common cause of water dripping from tap fixtures is a perished rubber washer that can no longer create a seal.
Corroded Valve Seats
If a tap continues to leak after a washer change, the internal valve seat may be pitted or corroded, requiring professional reseating.
Faulty Cartridges
Modern mixer taps use ceramic cartridges that can crack or become clogged with debris, leading to a tap leaking from handle.
High Water Pressure
In some Adelaide areas, excessive water pressure can strain your tap plumbing and cause frequent leaks.

Maintaining Your Adelaide Taps
Most leaking taps are caused by gradual wear and tear. Avoid over-tightening your taps, as this crushes the washer and causes it to fail faster. If you have older fixtures, consider asking how often do tap washers need replacing during a routine service check. Regular maintenance can extend the life of your mixer tap and help you avoid a broken tap emergency adelaide down the road.

FAQs
Tap Repair Questions Adelaide Homeowners Ask Us Most
Fixing a bathroom tap involves shutting off the water, disassembling the handle, and replacing the worn washer or cartridge.
Yes. Constant moisture can damage vanities, cause mould inside walls, and lead to significant structural issues over time.
Taps usually drip due to a worn-out rubber washer, a damaged ceramic cartridge, or high water pressure straining the seal.
A single leaking tap can waste thousands of litres of water per year, significantly increasing your water bill.
We offer a $0 call-out fee and a fixed upfront quote so you know the exact cost before we start any work.
While a standard faucet leak usually won’t, a leak within a closed heating system can cause pressure to drop, affecting your hot water.
Typically, washers last 2–5 years depending on usage and water quality, but over-tightening can shorten their life.
If it keeps dripping after a repair, the internal valve seat might be damaged and requires professional reseating or a full tap replacement.
