Tap Repair Kits – Quick, Cost-Effective Fixes for Leaky Taps
Dripping taps aren't just annoying—they waste water, raise bills, and can damage fixtures over time. A tap reviver or repair kit offers an efficient remedy by replacing worn internal components instead of replacing the whole tap. Typical contents include washers, O‑rings, cartridges, valves, and screws—all the essentials to restore smooth functionality.
Trusted suppliers like FIX‑A‑TAP and Elson supply Australian-standard valves, cartridges, and washers for long-lasting repairs.
What's Included in a Tap Repair Kit
Tap kits vary, but commonly include:
-
Washers & O‑rings: Prevent watertight leaks, restore proper sealing.
-
Tap/valve cartridges: Critical for flow regulation in mixers or compression taps.
-
Tap seats: Replace worn surfaces for tight valve seals.
-
Handle components: Grub screws, handles, or lever heads for styling or repair updates.
-
Specialized tools: Some kits include cutters for resurfacing seats or basic installers.
Selecting the Right Kit for Your Tap
| What to Check | Reason to Consider It |
|---|---|
| Tap Type & Brand | Kits are often brand‑specific—know your valve design. |
| Kit Contents | Ensure it includes all needed parts for your repair. |
| Certification | Look for WaterMark-approved parts for Australian standards. |
| Reusability | Tools like cutters offer repeated use across multiple repairs. |
