A dripping tap isn’t just an inconvenience. It can cause several issues if left unattended. Every drop of water which is wasted adds up over time which can increase your water consumption and your bill. Moreover, a leaking tap can:
By addressing the problem promptly, you not only save money but also protect your property and contribute to water conservation.
Leaking taps are one of the most common plumbing problems we see across South East Melbourne from older homes in Dandenong and Springvale to modern builds in Clyde or Keysborough. The causes can vary but here are a few of the usual reasons:
Washers are one of the first components to wear down especially with frequent use or high water pressure. A worn washer often leads to a constant drip even when the tap seems closed.
These small rubber rings help seal your tap handles. If they crack or come loose, you will notice leaks around the base of the handle which is a common issue in older taps.
Mixer taps found in many modern homes use internal cartridges. When these wear out or clog, they can cause leaks or make the tap hard to turn off properly.
In some areas, water hardness can cause mineral deposits to build up inside taps. Over time, this affects how well the internal parts seal and operate.
If a tap was poorly installed or uses cheap fittings, it’s more likely to fail early. This often can be seen in newer renovations or DIY setups.
Whether you are dealing with an old tap in a weatherboard in Noble Park or a leaking mixer in a new Dandenong home, it is best to get it checked before it leads to bigger issues. Our team is based in Dandenong and services the entire South East Melbourne region. We will quickly diagnose the cause and fix it properly.
Leaking taps can be annoying. However, they could be the early warning signs that something in the plumbing system of your property needs attention. If you notice a slow drip, water seeping around the tap base or difficulty turning it off completely, here is what you can do:
Our team is based in Dandenong and can get to you quickly. We carry all the parts and tools needed for common tap repairs and replacements and we can fix most issues in one visit.
Sometimes it could be a loose handle causing the leaking tap. However, if the drip continues, it is likely a worn washer or faulty valve.
Check if there is water damage around the sink? Do you notice any rust or unusual noises? These signs could point to a deeper plumbing issue.
If the leak is getting worse, you can turn off the isolation valve under the sink to stop the flow.
Quick action can prevent damage to cabinets, benchtops and internal pipes. It could be best to call a licensed plumber to take a look at the leaking tap.
