Tap Installations & Repairs in Birmingham
Whether you’re upgrading to a modern tap or fixing a worn-out fitting, we install and repair all types of taps for kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, and washrooms. We also check pipework, pressure, and compatibility to avoid recurring issues.
Services include:
- Kitchen and bathroom tap fitting
- Replacing old or leaking taps
- Tightening loose or wobbly fixtures
- Tap re-seating and resealing
- Tap thread and washer adjustments
Tap Washer Replacements in Birmingham
A worn washer is one of the most common causes of a dripping tap — and one of the easiest to fix when done properly. We carry a full range of replacement washers to suit older and modern tap models, including hard-to-source parts for traditional fittings.
We repair:
- Worn rubber and ceramic washers
- Tap seats that need reseating
- Persistent slow drips
- Taps that won’t turn off fully
Dripping Taps in Birmingham
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.
Garden & Outside Tap Installations in Birmingham
Need an outside tap installed or replaced in your garden, garage, or yard? We provide professional outdoor tap fitting with full pipework protection, insulation options, and easy shut-off valves for winter.
What we offer:
- New garden tap installations
- Replacement of broken or seized outside taps
- Tap boxes, frost protection, and pipe lagging
- Hose-friendly fittings for patios, lawns, or car washes
We also fit outdoor taps for small businesses such as cafes, nurseries, and hairdressers that need water access in outdoor areas.
Mixer Taps in Birmingham
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
Bath Shower Mixer Taps in Birmingham
Bath mixer taps with shower diverters often wear out quicker than standard taps due to higher use. We replace and repair these, making sure the unit is properly sealed, fitted to compatible pressure systems, and has fully working diverter switches.
Services include:
- Replacement of worn diverters
- Resealing base plates
- Leak fixes and washer changes
- Replacing faulty cartridges or valves
Leaking Valves in Birmingham
A leaking valve can waste water, reduce pressure, and lead to long-term water damage. Whether it’s a radiator valve, isolation valve, or supply valve under the sink, we find and repair the issue using reliable parts and tested methods.
We repair and replace:
- Manual valves
- Isolation valves
- Ball valves
- Thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs)
- Quarter-turn valves
Ball Valves in Birmingham
Commonly found in toilet cisterns and cold water tanks, ball valves help regulate flow and shut-off. If your tank is constantly refilling or your overflow pipe is dripping, a faulty ball valve is likely the cause.
Ball valve services include:
- Replacement of faulty float valves
- Adjustment and repair
- Water level corrections
- Overflow pipe diagnostics
Stopcocks & Leaking Stopcocks in Birmingham
The stopcock is your main water shut-off — so it needs to work. We repair or replace stiff, seized, or leaking stopcocks in kitchens, cupboards, or outdoor meter boxes.
We handle:
- Jammed or stuck stopcocks
- Leaks at the spindle or base
- Full stopcock replacement
- Installation of additional isolation points
