Case Study: Leaking Kitchen Tap Repair, Morgan House, Norwich

At Morgan House, near Riverside Retail Park in Norwich, I replaced a leaking kitchen tap. I removed the faulty tap, checked the supply fittings and fitted a replacement to resolve the leak.

Case Study: Leaking Utility Room Tap Replacement – Godfrey Road, Spixworth

A customer in Godfrey Road, Spixworth had a utility room mixer tap that was leaking from around the base. The existing tap needed to be removed and replaced, with access to the fixing points and water connections underneath the sink.

I disconnected the hot and cold water supplies, unbolted and removed the old tap, then fitted and secured the replacement tap. The new flexible tap connectors were connected to the existing hot and cold water supplies before everything was checked and tested for leaks.

  • Removed the old leaking utility room tap
  • Disconnected the existing hot and cold water connections
  • Fitted and secured the replacement mixer tap
  • Connected the new flexible tap hoses to the existing supplies

This was another example of a small plumbing job where replacing a faulty tap solved the leak and restored normal use of the sink.
