Worn rubber and ceramic washers

Persistent slow drips
Taps that won’t turn off fully

A dripping tap can waste thousands of litres of water each year — and it’s one of the most common complaints we handle. Whether caused by a washer, valve seat, O-ring, or scale build-up, we fix the problem at its source.
Benefits of repairing your drip:
Save money on water bills
Prevent mould or staining in sinks and basins
Stop annoying noises or splashing
Avoid longer-term wear to the fitting
If a radiator is beyond repair, we can replace it on the spot with a suitable new unit — all work covered by warranty.

Mixer taps allow easy temperature control and a sleek modern look — but they need the right pressure balance to function properly. Jack The Plumber installs and repairs all types of mixer taps, including monobloc and dual-lever models.
Common mixer tap issues we fix:
Stiff or jammed controls
Leaks from the spout or base
Inconsistent hot/cold balance
Loose body or mounting problems

Water level corrections
Overflow pipe diagnostics
