Nothing will have you call a plumber faster than an overflowing toilet or burst pipe. However, do you know that having a dripping or leaking tap can cause significant damages to your health and property?

A leaking tap in your Geelong home leads to several hazards like:

Water loss – those minor drops you ignore lead to a wastage of thousands of litres of water, which depletes the resource unnecessarily and increases utility expenses each month.

Mould and mildew – mould will produce mycotoxins that cause allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and hypersensitivity. Most of the building occupants will suffer from these health conditions.

Structural damage – when you fail to fix a leaking tap in Geelong, it will cause significant damages to your building. This often affects the walls, floors, and foundation, and repairs will cost a lot of money.

Although a leaky tap might seem harmless initially, it can cost you a lot to fix the damages if you do not act fast.

What Causes Leaky Taps?

Your faucet can leak due to various reasons. First, the tap components could be loose or damaged because of constant usage. Getting a plumber to fix this problem costs less because they will repair the parts or replace them if they are damaged or too old.

Another cause is incorrectly installed faucets. If you opted to DIY or your friends or loved ones convinced you not to hire a competent plumber to install your taps, you will face issues sooner than later. The taps will drip regularly, and unless they are installed again by a professional, you will put everyone and the building at risk.

Finally, you can have a leaking tap issue because your entire household plumbing system is not functioning optimally. For instance, an inconsistent water pressure issue can lead to dripping. The only solution is getting a plumber to examine the system and fix it.
