Leaking taps

It’s not just wasted water – leave it for too long, you’re wasting money… and if you leave it even longer, you could have bigger problems on your hands.

A dripping tap is one of the most annoying household problems. Not only is it wasting water, but it’s also making a constant noise that can drive you crazy. Fortunately, fixing a leaking tap is usually a fairly simple matter. In most cases, the problem is simply a worn washer. Replacing the washer is usually a quick and easy job that anyone can do.
