Tap & Toilet Repairs in Randwick

Yes, we work regularly with landlords and property managers on rental properties near UNSW and the Prince of Wales Hospital precinct. Tap and toilet repairs are a high-frequency callout in rental properties, often dripping taps from worn washers, cartridges in mixer taps that need replacing, or running toilets from worn inlet valves. We carry common parts in the van so most jobs are completed in a single visit. Invoicing direct to the property manager or owner is straightforward, and we provide before-and-after photos and a written job report for tenant communication and trust account records.

Most older mixer taps can be repaired by replacing the ceramic cartridge inside, which is far cheaper than a new tap. The cartridge is a wear part: it spins thousands of times over its life and eventually the ceramic disks lose their seal. For older taps where the cartridge style is obsolete and parts no longer available, replacement is the way to go. We'll assess yours, advise honestly, and quote both options where it makes sense. If you're replacing, we can supply a new tap or you can choose your own; we just install it.

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 If the tap body itself is corroded or the cartridge is obsolete, replacement is the way to go.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.
