Tap Fitting Services Explained
Not sure what a Mixer Tap is? Or struggling to visualise what a Pillar Tap is? Don’t worry, our handy tap guide below gives you explanations and images to help build your knowledge.
Mixer Tap Installation

Mixer taps combine hot and cold water in one convenient control, making them a popular choice for kitchens and bathrooms. We ensure precise fitting, correct pressure balance, and leak-free connections.
Pillar Tap Installation

Traditional pillar taps remain common in many homes. These tap designs feature two separate fixtures, one for hot water, one for cold water, and each fixture is mounted directly onto a basin or sink. Our plumbers install and replace these taps efficiently while ensuring a tidy, professional finish.
Boiling Water Tap Installation

Boiling water taps offer instant hot water for cooking and drinks. These specialist systems require careful installation, pressure checks, and safe connections, which our trained plumbers handle with ease.
Glass Rinser Installation

A practical and trendy addition to any kitchen sink, the glass rinser is often seen in bars and restaurants but it’s becoming much more popular in homes. These compact fixtures use a high-pressure jet spray to clean glasses, bottles and mugs in seconds.
Upgrade Your Kitchen or Bathroom
A stylish new tap can instantly refresh your space, whether you’re updating a kitchen, modernising a bathroom, or installing premium fixtures like boiling water taps.
Our professional tap installation service makes home plumbing upgrades simple, safe, and hassle-free.

How long does tap installation take?
Most standard tap fitting jobs take between 30 minutes and 1 hour, depending on access to the pipework and the type of tap being installed. More complex installations, such as boiling water taps or taps connected to filtration systems, may take longer.

Yes, in most cases, an old tap can be replaced with a modern mixer tap. A professional plumber will check the existing pipework and ensure the new tap is compatible with your water supply and sink. Upgrading to a mixer tap is a popular way to improve both the appearance and usability of a kitchen or bathroom.
