A real person answers, day or night
A dripping tap is never just a drip on the water bill
One worn washer wastes a surprising amount over a quarter and slowly chews through the seat behind it, so ring (02) 9072 0502 and we will rebuild it before it turns into a much bigger fix.

Fittings a supplier forgot
Seized by decades of hard water
When the knock is the mains, not the tap

Pressure that swings about
The tap and mixer work we cover
Tap trouble runs from a slow drip to a mixer that has given up, and we rebuild or replace whatever the fitting needs right across the whole house, each job quoted in writing first:
Washer and seat
A dripping bibcock or garden tap gets its washer, seat and spindle renewed rather than merely nipped up tighter, the seat re-cut where the years have scored it so the drip stops for good and the handle turns smoothly again.
Mixer repairs
A leaking or stiff kitchen or bathroom mixer gets a fresh cartridge and O-rings, or a clean replacement where the body is worn, the flow matched to the pressure so a kitchen or basin tap runs smooth and drip-free again.
Outdoor and stop taps
A seized garden tap, laundry cock or main stop valve gets freed or swapped so it turns and seals when you need it, the fitting nobody thinks about until a burst has you hunting a valve that will not budge.
Water hammer fixes
A tap that bangs the wall as it shuts gets traced to the cause, whether a loose pipe run, a worn valve or a failed hammer arrestor, so the knock rattling a bathroom wall is quietened rather than lived with.
Tap faults we get called to
Tap faults come down to a short, familiar list, and most trace to a worn seat, a seized valve or the mains behind the fitting rather than the handle you can see:
The tap that won't stop
A drip that returns days after a washer change usually means the seat beneath it is scored and eating the fresh washer, so re-cutting or replacing that seat is what finally settles a tap that simply will not stay quiet.
The handle that won't turn
A tap handle gone stiff or stuck is a spindle seized in a corroded body, common on fittings untouched for years, and forcing it only snaps the handle, where a patient rebuild frees the valve and has it turning easily again.
The spitting mixer
A mixer that sputters, runs weak or swings between hot and cold points to a worn cartridge or debris off the old mains lodged in the works, a quick fix once the cause is traced but a daily irritation while it is left alone.
Why a bad tap is worth sorting
A failing tap is easy to dismiss as a nuisance, yet a drip wastes water every hour and the wear behind it spreads quietly into the seat, the mains and eventually the water bill:
A drip is money down the drain
Forcing it makes it worse
Bad taps signal bad pipe
How it works
The tap repair, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0502 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Rebuilt and tested
Once the quote is agreed, your plumber isolates the fitting, rebuilds or replaces the tap or mixer, re-cuts any scored seat, then runs it up and checks carefully for drips and hammer before calling it done.
- 04
Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Banksia
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Banksia works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Areas we repair taps across
A dripping tap or seized handle gets attention right across Arncliffe, Rockdale, Kyeemagh, Brighton-Le-Sands and Bardwell Valley, every call answered with one fixed price agreed before the first spanner moves.
Good questions, straight answers
Tap repair questions Banksia locals ask
Can you fix a tap that still drips after a new washer?
Yes, a drip that returns usually means the seat under the washer is scored, so recutting or renewing that scored seat is what finally silences a tap the washer alone could not settle.
My outdoor tap handle has seized. Can it be saved?
Usually yes, since a stuck handle on the older fittings here is a spindle corroded in place, and a careful rebuild frees the seized valve far more often than the tap needs cutting out.
Do you repair mixer taps as well as traditional ones?
Yes, we rebuild kitchen and bathroom mixers with fresh cartridges and O-rings, or fit a fresh replacement where the body itself is worn, so the tap runs smoothly and stays leak-free.
Is there a call out fee to look at a leaking tap?
No, the visit and the quote are both $0, so a plumber checks the tap, pins down the real fault, and writes up a price before any part is fitted.
Why do my pipes bang when I turn a tap off?
That water hammer usually traces to loose old galvanised pipe and tired valves in the homes around here, so we re-clip and settle the pipe behind the fitting to quieten it for good.
Is a tap repair covered by a warranty?
Yes, every tap and mixer we rebuild or replace is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, so if the drip or leak returns we come out again and put it right at no charge.
