Got a dripping tap that won’t stop leaking? Not only is it annoying, but a broken washer is a common cause of dripping taps and can add to your water bills. At MGR Plumbing, we specialise in quick and effective solutions to fix dripping taps and leaking taps, saving you time, money, and stress.
Dripping taps and leaking taps are more than just a nuisance—they’re a common plumbing issue in Melbourne homes, from charming Victorian terraces to modern apartments. Ensuring a steady water supply is essential to avoid further disruptions. Our team understands Melbourne’s unique plumbing challenges and offers tailored solutions. Faulty tap valves are another common issue we address effectively. The jumper valve plays a crucial role in preventing leaks and ensuring proper tap function. Damaged tap bodies can also lead to leaks and require immediate attention. Whether it’s worn-out washers, corroded components, or high water pressure, we have the tools and expertise to stop the drip and restore your peace of mind. Tap leaks often go unnoticed until they become more severe. If the problem lies in a faulty tap washer, we can quickly replace it to prevent further leakage.
Leaking taps can be a frustrating and wasteful issue in any household. A single dripping tap can waste up to 9,000 litres of water per year, which can lead to increased water bills and damage to the environment. Understanding the causes of leaking taps is essential to fix them effectively. Leaking taps can be caused by various factors, including worn-out or damaged parts, loose or corroded tap aerators, faulty or worn-out valve stems or cartridges, mineral buildup or limescale deposits, and incorrectly installed or faulty tap cartridges.
Dripping taps and leaking taps can be caused by worn-out washers, faulty tap valves, corroded valve seats, mineral build-up, or issues with hot and cold taps.
Rubber washers play a crucial role in traditional taps as seals that can wear out over time, leading to leaks.
Left unchecked, even a small drip can waste litres of water daily. Our expert plumbers diagnose and repair the issue quickly to prevent unnecessary water wastage and costs.
Maintaining steady water flow is critical to avoid further complications.
Often, a simple tap washer replacement can resolve the issue effectively.

There are two main types of leaking taps: those with ceramic disc sealants and those with rubber washers. Ceramic disc sealants are commonly used in taps and can be prone to wear and tear. Rubber washers are also used in taps and can be damaged or worn out, causing leaks. Leaking taps can also be classified into different types based on the location of the leak, such as leaks from the tap body, tap handle, or tap valve.
