Plumbing FAQs

  • What should I do if I have a leak in my house?

    To minimise the damage to your home as much as possible, we would advise you to turn off your main water supply at the stopcock. Then contact TAP Co. as soon as possible to arrange a speedy repair of the leak

  • Can you install my new dishwasher or washing machine?

    Yes, we can install your new dishwasher or washing machine. All of our plumbers are fully qualified to ensure everything is installed correctly; this will prevent potential future leaks and will ensure there is sufficient water flow to operate the appliance efficiently.

  • What should I do if a pipe bursts in my property?

    A burst pipe emergency can cause a lot of damage to your property's structure and electrical wiring. If you discover a burst pipe, you should take the following steps:

    1. Turn off the main stop tap - these are located where the service pipe enters your home, which is often under the kitchen sink.

    2. If you can drain the system - turn on all your cold taps.

    3. Switch off all your heating systems. Once water heating has been turned off, turn on all the hot taps, which will help drain the system.

    4. Turn off all the electrics, if water has leaked near your electrics you should switch off the mains immediately.

    5. Then call TAP Co. to repair the damage: 01242 461945

  • How do I prevent frozen and burst pipes?

    There are a number of prevention measures to help avoid burst, leaking and frozen pipes. We recommend the following care tips (especially in winter):

    • Make sure your loft is well insulated - and the sides of your water tank.

    • Make sure your pipes are well insulated – A good tip is to open the loft trap door when it is cold to let heat in.

    • If you have dripping taps replace the washer- this is because if they freeze, it can block the pipe.

    • Make yourself aware where the main stop tap is located. Check that you can turn it off in an emergency, especially in very cold weather on a regular basis.

    • Put your central heating on low setting or set it to come on a more than once a day, especially if you are going to be away from the property for a length of time.

  • When should I bleed a radiator?

    You can tell when your radiator needs bleeding if the top section remains a lot cooler than the bottom. In some severe cases, the whole radiator will stay cold when the heating system is turned on. This happens when trapped air shifts the hot water that usually heats the radiator.

    This trapped air will be released when you bleed your radiator. The hot water will be able to flow freely through the radiator once the air is released.

    If you're unsure why your radiators aren't heating, please contact TAP Co, and we will come out and diagnose the problem, contact: enquires@tapcompany.co.uk.
