Great service for our plumbing, Matt was an excellent professional and sorted out our plumbing quick and cleanly (wore clean covers for his boots). And then when we had a small follow up issues he was there the next day to solve it. Just good professional plumbing. Will definitely use again

I received great customer service from Killara & Rose Bay Plumbing. Sherwyn the plumber arrived on time, was professional, friendly, and clearly explained what the problem was and potential solutions. I would recommend this company for your plumbing needs.

Definitely the best plumbing service we have used to date, and will no longer use another service. Our hot water system needed replacing and from the first call this was dealt with so seamlessly. The old unit was taken away, new unit installed, an electrician organized, all within a few hours. Amazing! No mess was left behind, which I’ve never experienced from a trade, was an added bonus. No hesitation in recommending. I can see why Killara Plumbing have so many positive reviews.

Thanks for your great work.
Claude was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure that all my toilet and shower issues were totally fixed. Both my toilets are old and needed various repairs and replacement of cistern, pipes and other elements. The shower now works beautifully. He was courteous and explained everything thoroughly. He cleaned up thoroughly before he left. I wish I had had this done ages ago. Thank you Claude for an outstanding job! M

What causes leaking taps?
There are many factors that can lead to a tap leak and that incessant dripping that drives us all a bit mad. They include:
- Damaged, faulty or worn-out washers.
- Loose components, such as the O-ring, valve seat or packing nut.
- A build-up of mould, mineral deposits or rust.
- Poor installation.
- Damaged plumbing pipes.
How do I know if my tap is leaking?
The good news is that detection requires little guesswork. Signs tend to be fairly obvious and include dripping noises, water pooling, damp surfaces, reduced water pressure and water bills rising.
Can I fix a leaking tap myself?
Some leaking tap issues can be easily fixed simply with the purchase and installation of a new washer. However, the problem can be more complicated. Either way, the job tends to be fairly messy. Using a professional plumber to fix your leaking tap deals with the issue quickly, efficiently and with a 100% plumbing guarantee.
How long does it take to fix a leaking tap?
It depends on what is causing the leak in the first place. However, if Killara Plumbing gets involved, rest assured we will provide you with a time estimate and a full cost before work commences.
Common causes of leaking taps
Wear to the washer at the end of the pipe that stops the flow of water is the most common cause of a leaky tap. Simply replacing the washer and installing it properly is one of the most common leaking tap repairs people make.
Parts that sometimes become damaged or loose from normal use include:
- The O-ring in the tap handles
- The cartridge that manages water flow and temperature
- The valve seat between the spout and the tap
A build-up of minerals from the water can also cause leaking taps over time. It’s always a good idea to hire a professional plumber any time a leak starts. Our team of licensed plumbers knows how to identify and repair the cause of leaks correctly regardless of the type or age of your taps. Our owner Greg is one of the former presidents of the Master Plumbers Association and has been a member for more than 25 years. There is no one who knows more about repairing leaking taps in Sydney’s North Shore than Killara Plumbing.
Repairing leaking taps from high water pressure or damaged pipes
If the cause of the leak is from the pipes and not the tap, we can help with that too. If damaged pipes are causing the problem, we will repair the damage and restore your plumbing system. If the leak is caused by high water pressure, a simple adjustment may be all you need.
Emergency plumbing for timely leaking tap repairs
A leaking tap might not seem urgent, but it should always be treated like one. Leaks can cause mould and mildew that can lead to health problems. It can also damage walls, floors, and the foundation of your home. That’s why we offer dependable 24/7 emergency services. We provide leaking tap repairs in Sydney’s North Shore when you need them, not when it fits into our schedule.
