This service is part of our fixture repairs and installation services on the North Shore .
Outdoor taps can develop leaks at the stem, spout, or wall connection. Over time, internal seals wear out and freezing temperatures can cause cracking if hoses are left attached during winter.
Some leaks appear only when the tap is turned on, while others drip continuously even when fully closed. We confirm whether the issue involves a worn internal component, loose mounting, or a damaged shut off mechanism.
We begin with a visual inspection and confirm the source of the leak. In many cases, replacing internal components restores proper shut off and stops the drip.
If the hose bib is cracked or heavily corroded, replacement may be the more practical long term solution. We explain the options clearly and confirm pricing before proceeding.
After completing the repair, we test for leaks and confirm proper operation.
A leaking outdoor tap can allow water to penetrate exterior walls, leading to hidden moisture damage over time. Repairing the issue promptly helps protect siding, framing, and interior finishes.
We focus on careful workmanship, secure connections, and clean finishing throughout the visit.
