One of the most wasteful and costly plumbing problems you can face is a water leak.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes a leaking tap?
A leaking tap is usually caused by worn washers, faulty O-rings, corroded valve seats, or loose parts inside the tap body. Over time, everyday use and water pressure changes can damage these components, leading to persistent dripping. Ignoring the issue can waste thousands of litres of water and increase your water bill unnecessarily.
Can a leaking toilet increase my water bill?
Yes—leaking toilets are one of the biggest hidden causes of high water bills. A constantly running cistern or slow leak from the tank can waste hundreds of litres each day. These leaks often go unnoticed but can add significant cost over time. Replacing faulty inlet valves or flapper seals usually fixes the issue quickly and affordably.
Should I fix a leaking tap straight away?
Yes—small leaks often turn into bigger, costlier problems. A leaking tap can waste litres of water daily, damage surrounding surfaces, and signal pressure issues within your plumbing system. Fixing it early helps avoid unnecessary water use, wear on fittings, and potential internal pipe damage. It’s a quick repair that makes a big difference long term.
