Dripping or broken taps in Bath? Voltrade plumbers repair and replace all types of kitchen and bathroom taps.
Properties across Bath and surrounding areas including Bath vary significantly in age and construction. The local housing stock - stone cottages, farmhouses, modern estates - means our plumbers encounter a wide range of pipework types and plumbing configurations. The moderately hard water across Somerset contributes to gradual scale buildup in pipes and fittings, making regular maintenance important for postcodes.
A dripping tap is one of the most common plumbing problems in UK homes. It might seem minor, but a tap dripping once per second wastes over 5,000 litres of water a year and adds unnecessary cost to your water bill.
Voltrade plumbers in Bath repair all types of taps including mixer taps, monobloc taps, pillar taps, and wall-mounted taps in both kitchens and bathrooms. Most tap repairs can be completed in under an hour.
The most common tap faults our engineers fix in Bath include dripping from the spout (usually a worn washer or ceramic disc), leaking from the base of the tap (often a failed O-ring), stiff or difficult to turn handles, low water pressure from a single tap, and noisy or vibrating pipes when the tap is turned on.

If the tap body and mechanism are sound, a washer or cartridge replacement is usually cheaper and quicker. If the tap is heavily corroded, leaking from the body, or more than 15 years old, replacement is usually the better investment.
A persistent drip usually means the internal seal has worn. In traditional taps this is a rubber washer. In modern quarter-turn taps it is a ceramic disc cartridge. Both are quick to replace.
Yes. A tap dripping once per second wastes over 5,000 litres a year on a metered supply. In Bath, where moderately hard water, the limescale buildup from dripping can also damage the tap seat, making the drip worse over time.
Most tap repairs are completed within 30 to 45 minutes. If the tap needs replacing and we have a suitable replacement, allow 45 minutes to an hour. If parts need ordering, we will return to fit them at a convenient time.
