20 Years of Tap & Outlet Repairs Across Hunchy

Is a Dripping Tap Costing You More Than You Realise?

A tap that drips once every few seconds might seem harmless, but it can waste a surprising amount of water over the course of a year and push up your bill without you noticing. Worn washers, damaged O-rings and failing ceramic discs are the usual culprits, and they tend to worsen the longer they're left. In older Hunchy homes, ageing tapware and mineral build-up can accelerate this wear.

Beyond the annoyance of a constant drip, a leaking tap or outlet can cause real damage if it's left unchecked. Water tracking down through a wall mixer, pooling under a vanity from a split flexi hose, or seeping into cabinetry from a leaking supply line can lead to mould, swollen joinery and costly repairs down the track.

If your tap is hard to turn, won't shut off completely, or you've noticed a sudden change in your water usage, it's worth getting it checked before the problem grows. Our team can quickly identify whether you're dealing with a simple washer replacement or a more involved cartridge or valve issue.
