A kitchen tap in Holborn, WC1N had developed a persistent drip and a stiffness that made it awkward to use every day β€” a small fault, but one that wastes water and gets more annoying the longer it's left. Ralf attended to remove the old mixer tap and fit a replacement.

A quick job, done properly

The old tap was removed, the supply lines isolated and checked for wear before the new tap went in, and a new classic-style monobloc mixer was fitted. Once connected, the tap was tested for correct water pressure and checked thoroughly for leaks at every joint before Ralf left β€” a tap replacement that looks simple can still leave a slow leak under the sink if the connections aren't properly tested afterwards.

Most tap replacements of this kind take under an hour and cost considerably less than most homeowners expect, particularly compared to living with a dripping or stiff tap for months and the water wasted in the meantime.
