When to Call Us About Leaking Tap Repair
A dripping tap rarely counts as a true emergency, but it's worth sorting sooner than later.
- A tap that keeps dripping no matter how tight you turn it
- A mixer tap that runs even fully off
- Dampness collecting beneath the sink, traced back to the tap body itself
- Your water bill climbing steadily with nothing else to account for it
If the real issue is water pressure or damaged supply pipe rather than the tap fitting, our burst and leaking pipes page is the better fit.
Inside a Typical Leaking Tap Repair Job
- Checking the tap type: compression, ceramic disc or mixer cartridge
- Replacing worn washers, O-rings or cartridges as needed
- Checking the tap body itself for cracks or corrosion
- Testing the fix under normal pressure before we leave
- Advising honestly if the tap is genuinely due for replacement
What Affects the Price of Leaking Tap Repair
The tap's actual condition moves the price on a repair like this, whatever hour you happen to call.
- Tap type, and whether we're carrying the right part on the van already
- Age and condition of the tap body itself
- Access, particularly in older bathrooms with tight fittings
- Whether one tap or several around the house need attention
Detached houses on Killara's larger blocks often still run original brass tapware that's decades old, while the newer units near Rosebery Road tend to have modern mixer cartridges that fail in a completely different way. We price for whichever one's actually in front of us.
Leaking Tap Repair in Killara Homes
Detached houses sit on most of Killara's blocks, but the mix isn't uniform. Around Rosebery Road and the newer developments closer to the station, mixer taps with cartridge mechanisms have become common, and they fail differently to older compression taps.
In the established houses further from the station, original brass tapware often just needs a washer or O-ring, a straightforward job. In the newer stock, it's more often a cartridge replacement, which we carry stock for on the van.
What NSW Requires for This Work
A basic washer replacement doesn't require a licence in most cases. The moment the repair touches the tap's internal valve mechanism, the supply line, or anything beyond the visible fitting, it becomes licensed plumbing work.
We'll tell you honestly which category your job falls into rather than treat every tap as needing a licensed callout when it doesn't.

Common questions
Leaking Tap Repair FAQs
Will you charge me to quote leaking tap repair?
No. Quoting a leaking tap is free, and there's no call-out fee either way.
Can I legally do leaking tap repair myself?
Swapping a washer on a straightforward tap is generally something a homeowner can safely handle. Once it involves the internal valve, the cartridge or the supply line itself, NSW rules require a licensed plumber.
Are you properly licensed to carry out leaking tap repair?
Yes, our plumbers work under Lic #465156C, and you're welcome to check that any time.
Can the $65 first-service discount be used on leaking tap repair?
Yes, the $65 off your first service applies to leaking tap repair the same as any other job we quote.
Is leaking tap repair a permanent fix?
Done properly, yes. We replace what's actually worn rather than patching around it, so it shouldn't be back dripping again in a few months.
What happens if leaking tap repair turns out bigger than expected?
We pause and put the new number to you before touching anything else, so nothing extra lands on the invoice unapproved.
