Dripping Tap? We're On Our Way

Fast, Fixed-Price Tap & Outlet Repairs Across Coalfalls

Coalfalls Plumbing & Drains provides complete tap and outlet maintenance for homes and businesses in Coalfalls and throughout Ipswich. From a single dripping kitchen tap to a full retapping of a rental property, our plumbers arrive with the washers, cartridges and mixer parts needed to finish most jobs in one visit. We quote every repair upfront with fixed pricing, so there are no surprises once the work is complete.

If you've noticed a tap that won't turn off, water pooling under the sink or a mixer that has become stiff and hard to use, don't wait for the problem to worsen.

Give our friendly team a call and we'll organise a time that suits, often with same-day service available for urgent leaks.

Common Tap & Outlet Problems

Is Your Tap Costing You More Than You Think?

A dripping tap rarely stays a minor inconvenience for long. What starts as an annoying drip from a kitchen mixer or bathroom tap often points to a worn washer, a failing ceramic disc or a cartridge that has reached the end of its life. Left unchecked, that steady drip can push your water bill higher and, in some cases, lead to water tracking into cabinetry or wall cavities behind wall mixers.

Other issues are less obvious but just as important to address. A tap that has become stiff or hard to turn might be hiding a build-up of debris in the valve seat, while a shower mixer that won't divert properly between the rose and spout could signal a failing diverter cartridge. Outdoor hose taps and laundry mixers that have seized or begun weeping are also common across Coalfalls properties, particularly in older homes where original tapware has never been replaced.

If you're noticing any of these signs, from a supply line leak beneath the vanity to a toilet stop tap that won't fully shut, it's worth having a licensed plumber assess the fitting before the problem grows into something more costly.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Your Tap & Outlet Repair Questions Answered

      We understand you might have questions before booking a tap repair. Below, our experienced team answers some of the questions we hear most often from Coalfalls customers.

      If a tap continues to drip after a washer replacement, the issue is often related to the valve seat or the tap body itself. Corrosion or wear on the seat can prevent the new washer from forming a proper seal, meaning the fitting will keep leaking regardless of how many times the washer is changed. In these cases, a plumber may need to re-seat the valve or replace the entire tap assembly, particularly if the fitting is older or has been repaired multiple times already. It's also possible the tap uses a ceramic disc cartridge rather than a traditional washer, which requires a different repair approach altogether.
      While some homeowners are comfortable replacing a simple washer, tap repairs often involve more than they first appear. Modern mixer taps use ceramic disc cartridges that require specific tools and correct torque to avoid damaging the fitting further. There's also the risk of stripping threads, cracking porcelain fixtures or causing a leak that's harder to trace once the tap has been disassembled. Engaging a licensed plumber ensures the repair is compliant, uses the correct parts for your specific tap brand, and won't void any existing warranties on your tapware.
      A stiff mixer tap is usually a sign that the internal cartridge is beginning to fail or that mineral deposits and debris have built up inside the valve. Areas with harder water can accelerate this wear, causing the ceramic discs or moving parts within the cartridge to grind against each other. In some cases, a stiff tap can also point to a broader water pressure issue affecting the fitting. A plumber can inspect the cartridge and surrounding components to determine whether a simple clean and lubrication will help, or whether the cartridge needs replacing entirely.
      Yes, an outdoor tap that drips or won't shut off completely shouldn't be ignored. Beyond the ongoing water wastage, a continuously dripping hose tap can lead to pooling water near the home's foundations, encourage moisture-related issues, and in colder months, contribute to pipe damage if water sits in exposed fittings. Seized or weeping outdoor taps are also common where washers have perished from sun exposure or where the tap body has corroded over time. Replacing the tap or its internal components generally resolves the issue and prevents further water loss.
      Water tracking behind a shower wall is often linked to a failing wall mixer or a diverter that isn't sealing properly. As the internal seals and cartridges within a wall-mounted mixer wear down, water can bypass the fitting and seep into the wall cavity instead of exiting through the spout or shower rose. This type of leak can be difficult to spot early, as it often shows up as damage on an adjoining wall or ceiling rather than obvious water at the tap itself. A plumber can isolate the fitting, inspect the internal components and repair or replace the mixer to stop water finding its way into the cavity.
      Traditional taps use a simple rubber washer that compresses against a valve seat to stop water flow when the tap is turned off. Over time, these washers perish and need replacing, which is a common cause of dripping in older-style taps. Modern mixer taps, on the other hand, typically use a ceramic disc cartridge, a self-contained unit with two ceramic discs that rotate against each other to control flow and temperature. Cartridges tend to last longer than washers but are more expensive to replace and require the correct cartridge type for your specific tap brand and model.
