Our technicians at All Needs Plumbing can give you an upfront and honest quotation necessary in repairing or replacing your tap.
Regardless of the type of tap that you have in your home, you may still encounter problems from time to time. When you do, the solution may prove to be quite straightforward if you are aware of the kind of tap you have installed. Below are some of the most common types of taps in different households in Australia.
Over time, the washer inside these taps wears out, resulting in annoying drips that can lead to excessive water bills. Rest assured that the washer inside this type of taps can be replaced, together with the O-rings it comes with. Even the spindles can be lubricated, allowing your tap to work like new.
You’ll most likely see mixer taps in your kitchen. These are the ones with a single lever on them that can control the flow of hot and cold water. Mixer taps are slightly more complex than jumper washer taps because rather than washers, they are made up of a series of parts that need to work together. Because of the number of parts that need to be addressed in repairing this type of tap, it is often more cost-effective to replace a mixer tap instead when it is no longer working.
Half turn and quarter turn taps control the flow of water when they are rotated in either 90 or 180 degrees. Over time, the series of seals that they are composed of, tend to wear out, which then again may result in dripping or leaking. While these taps can be easily repaired, you also have the option of replacing them entirely.
Most contemporary homes now incorporate sensor taps that operate by allowing a motion to signal the water flow. These are considered to be the most hygienic taps because you don’t have to be in contact with them to wash your hands or for the tap to deliver water as needed. However, because of the electrical component of these taps, they can be quite challenging and more complicated to repair.
Some of the most common tap problems that we can address immediately include taps that drip or leak around the handle, as well as taps that fail to open all the way. We can also provide a prompt solution to noisy taps as well as taps that cause water hammer.
