Leaking Tap Repair
A dripping tap, leaking mixer or toilet that keeps running is worth describing clearly so a plumber can arrive prepared to assess the fitting and its connections.
When to ask for help
- A tap drips after being turned off, a mixer leaks around its base, or water is visible below a fitting.
- A toilet continues filling or water use has changed without an obvious reason.
What to include in your job post
- Identify the room and fitting type, and attach a close photo or short description of where water appears.
- Say whether you have already isolated the water and whether the leak is active now.
What can affect the scope
- Replacement parts depend on the fitting and its condition.
- Water damage, corroded connections or poor access can make a small repair more involved.
