A constant drip is more than just an annoyance; it’s a waste of money and a strain on your plumbing fixtures. In the larger residences of Sutton Coldfield (B74) and the prestigious postcodes of Edgbaston (B15), high water pressure can often lead to worn-out washers or damaged ceramic discs.

No More Drips in B74

Case Study:  Taps Repaired

Problem: A customer in the Birmingham B74 area was losing sleep over a constantly dripping kitchen mixer tap. 
Solution: Dave attended the same day, quickly diagnosed a failed ceramic cartridge, and had the replacement part installed within the hour. 
Outcome: The leak was permanently stopped, and the customer received a full invoice confirming the 12-month guarantee. 

We  also installed a modern water isolation valve to allow the homeowner to turn off the water if the need arises again and the customer also booked in a Boiler Service as the boiler had not been serviced in 2 years.

Dripping Taps Birmingham FAQS


  • Dave, can you fix designer taps like Quooker or Grohe?

    Absolutely. High-end fixtures in Edgbaston often use specific ceramic cartridges rather than standard rubber washers. I have extensive experience with Hansgrohe, Perrin & Rowe, and boiling water taps, ensuring your manufacturer’s warranty is respected and the finish remains scratch-free.

  • Why did my tap start dripping suddenly?

    In Sutton Coldfield, high mains pressure can put extra stress on internal seals. If it's a sudden drip, a ceramic disc may have cracked or a piece of grit from the local water main has become lodged in the valve. I can dismantle, clean, and replace the necessary parts to restore a watertight seal.

  • Is it better to repair or replace a tap?

    If your tap is a high-quality fixture in Harborne, a repair is almost always more cost-effective. However, if the internal body is heavily corroded by limescale or "pitted," I’ll provide an honest assessment and can supply and fit a premium replacement on the same day.

  • I need a new shower mixer tap installed. Can you supply the tap?

    Yes we can source fittings,  or you can purchase your chosen tap (e.g., your mixer taps, pull-out tap, or pillar tap) beforehand. 


    We then guarantee a perfect, leak-free installation.
