Tap & Toilet Repairs in Kingsford

This is a recurring pattern in walk-up flats and the diagnostics matters. A leaking tap in your unit shouldn't cause dripping into the unit below unless the leak has progressed into the floor cavity or there's an unrelated leak below the tap itself (waste pipe, supply connection). We attend, inspect both units (with permission), and identify the actual source. If it's the tap, we fix it and the moisture below should dry out over a few days. If there's secondary damage in the unit below, we document and the owners can liaise on repair responsibility under strata rules. Either way, the fix starts with finding the actual source.

Usually not. A running toilet is typically a worn inlet valve or flush seal - we'll quote upfront before starting. Worth fixing quickly though - a running toilet can waste 25,000+ litres per quarter, which adds up on your water bill.

Most mixer taps can be repaired by replacing the ceramic cartridge - much cheaper than a new tap. If the tap body itself is corroded or the cartridge is obsolete, replacement is the way to go. We'll advise honestly.

If your taps are 15+ years old, yes. Modern WELS-rated fixtures use significantly less water without sacrificing pressure. The water savings often pay for the upgrade within a couple of years.

That's water hammer - caused by high water pressure or unsecured pipes. We can install a water hammer arrestor or pressure limiting valve to fix it. Left untreated, it can damage pipe joints over time.
