Common Tap Issues

Is Your Tap or Outlet Causing Problems?

A leaking tap rarely stays a small issue for long. What starts as an annoying drip from a kitchen mixer or bathroom basin tap can quickly wear the washer or ceramic disc down completely, leaving you with a tap that won't turn off and a rising water bill. In older Dorrington homes, ageing spindle taps and worn O-rings are a common culprit, while newer properties often see cartridge failures in mixer and flick-mixer taps.

Outdoor and laundry taps bring their own headaches. A seized garden tap, a washing machine tap that won't isolate, or a split hose cock left unchecked can waste a surprising amount of water and even damage garden beds or laundry flooring. Flexi hoses under vanities and sinks are another hidden risk, since a failed connection can send water into the cabinetry long before a puddle appears on the floor.

Left unaddressed, these issues can lead to water damage, mould, inflated water bills and, in some cases, a total loss of water pressure to a fixture. Getting a qualified plumber to inspect and repair the problem early protects both your home and your hip pocket.

      Common Questions

      Tap & Outlet Maintenance FAQs

      We're asked plenty of questions about leaking taps, stiff mixers and outdoor outlets, so we've put together answers to the ones we hear most from Dorrington customers. If you don't see your question below, our team is always happy to talk through the specifics of your plumbing.

      A dripping tap is usually caused by a worn washer, a damaged O-ring or a failing cartridge inside the tap body, rather than a loose handle. Tightening the tap further can mask the drip temporarily, but it often puts extra strain on the internal components and can make the tap harder to operate over time. The most reliable fix is to have a plumber replace the worn part so the tap seals properly again.
      Mixer taps contain cartridges and seals that vary between brands and models, and fitting the wrong replacement part can cause further leaks or damage the tap body. While a confident DIYer might manage a simple washer swap on an older pillar tap, mixer taps generally need the correct parts and some plumbing know-how to reassemble without leaks. Calling a licensed plumber avoids the risk of an incorrect repair leading to water damage inside your cabinetry or walls.
      Pooling water under a sink is often the result of a failed flexi hose, a loose supply line connection or a leaking isolation valve, rather than the tap itself. These fittings can deteriorate with age, particularly in homes with harder water, and small leaks can go unnoticed until the cabinet base starts to show damage. A plumber can trace the exact source and replace the affected hose or valve before it causes further issues.
      A stiff outdoor tap is commonly caused by mineral build-up, a worn washer or corrosion inside an ageing tap body, and it's worth addressing before the tap seizes completely or the handle snaps off. Continuing to force a stiff tap can damage the spindle or the tap body itself, sometimes turning a simple repair into a full replacement. It's best to have it checked before the issue worsens, especially if you rely on that outlet for the garden or a hose connection.
      Yes, we service the timed-flow, lever and sensor taps commonly found in commercial bathrooms, cafes, offices and aged care facilities, where constant use puts extra strain on washers and cartridges. Commercial tapware often has specific requirements around water flow and backflow prevention, so it's worth having these systems checked and maintained by a licensed plumber. We work with business owners and facility managers to keep amenities running smoothly with minimal disruption.
      If a tap has been repaired multiple times, has visible corrosion, or the body itself is cracked or leaking rather than just the internal components, it's usually more sensible to replace it than continue repairing it. Older tap styles can also become difficult to source parts for, which makes ongoing repairs less practical over time. A plumber can assess the tap's condition and let you know honestly whether a repair or replacement is the better long-term option for your home.
