Does a leaking tap have only a nuisance value because of the irritating sound? No, the leak causes a lot of water wastage, and hence, it needs immediate attention. Should you pick your phone and call the nearest Leaking Tap Repairs Adelaide? Well, you do not need to do that every time.

There are some simple ways of correcting the problem of a leaking tap. However, you need an expert when the problem is bigger.

Here, in this blog, we are going to explain a step-by-step process to find out the fundamental cause of the leak and correct it.

Get to the root cause

It is important to identify where the leak is coming from. What is the fundamental reason?

Is the water leaking from the spout? Then probably the washer is damaged.

Is the leak coming beneath the handle? If yes, then maybe the O-ring is damaged and needs a replacement.

A leak below the spout indicates that the Spout-O ring has to be changed. Always check the washer type before buying.

In a tap, there are two types of valves. The first is compression valve and the other is the disc valve.

Ceramic disc valve taps use ceramic washers, and the compression valve taps use rubber washers. Therefore, you need to buy the right washer for the tap.

To replace the washer, you need to access the valve. This mechanical device controls the water flow. When the washer wears away due to regular use, it causes a drip.

It is important to stop the water supply before repairing the tap. Once you stop the water supply, run the taps to release the pressure in the pipe. You can fill the buckets to avoid the wastage of water.

Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions before doing any plumbing work. If you do not feel confident about the repair work, then call tap repairs Adelaide. One should never do experiments with a tap if there is no adequate knowledge of it.

Always plug the sink so that small nuts or screws do not fall into the sink accidently. Use a soft clock to protect the chrome finish
