5 STEPS ON HOW TO FIX A LEAKING TAP
A dripping tap isn’t just annoying—it wastes water and can lead to bigger plumbing issues if left unfixed. The good news? Fixing it is straightforward when you know what to look for. Follow these steps to repair a leaking tap before it turns into a bigger problem.
Step 1: Turn Off the Water Supply
Step 2: Disassemble the Tap
Step 3: Identify and Replace Worn-Out Parts
Step 4: Apply Waterproof Lubricant
Step 5: Reassemble and Test the Tap

Water damage unfortunately naturally cohabits with leaks. Water damage can eat away at your timber floor, erode your grout or even stain your sink. Water leaks can be sneaky and unless you’re monitoring your water meter, it may be hard to detect a problem.
One slow dripping tap can have you using an extra 9,000 litres of water a year. When you notice a leak, it’s time to take action. Contact Network Plumbing – the expert leaking tap plumber Sydney homeowners rely on – for a full assessment before the water pressure or water damage takes hold. A simple phone call could get your tap fixed before any significant damage is done. We are on call 24 hours a day!

Sydney Leaking Tap & Toilet Repairs Services
While we might only notice our plumbing when things aren’t working properly, house plumbing maintenance is an essential part of preventing problems like a leaking shower, a dripping tap, or a toilet repair that you just can’t put off any longer. Much like your car, your house requires general plumbing maintenance in Sydney from time to time.
However, there are several areas homeowners should keep in mind when it comes to plumbing maintenance.
Check all taps inside the home, run your finger around the base of your tap to check for any excess water.
Open the cupboard under the sink to check for any pooling of water.
Notice the inside of your sink, looking for water stains.
Do not overturn your tap; this will wear the washer faster than necessary.
Be mindful of washing machines and their connection at the back of the machine.
Don’t forget outside—check hoses and external taps.
Ignoring small leaks or water stains could be signs of hidden water leaks, which, if left unchecked, may lead to costly water damage and repairs. When it comes to plumbing maintenance, simply being observant and periodically checking these areas can help you avoid nasty surprises in the future.

Great work by Oliver Jake and Phil. Everything works perfectly
Matthew was swift to respond and diagnose the issue with our lack of water pressure. Initial estimates indicated the need to temporarily bypass a section of piping until we could locate the blockage before performing a more permanent solution. During testing for pipe location it was determined a faulty isolation valve was the culprit negating the need for the temporary solution and significantly reducing the cost of the solution. Matthew was courteous and professional throughout and once diagnosed correctly was a swift fix, would highly recommend.
Over two days of working outside to unblock a private stormwater easement affecting four properties on the same easement, Phil and Matthew brought us success. Happy to have them anytime. Great workers. Network you certainly have the right people for the job.

I really appreciated Jordan’s upfront approach. He was communicative, clear about the potential cost of the project, offered helpful suggestions and turned up bang on time. He was honest about the work that would be involved, to the point of recommending a completely different approach, which was very refreshing. I’ll definitely be asking for him for future plumbing work!

I want to thank Oliver, the plumber who came in for a complimentary check. He was very professional , courteous and did a thorough check. Thank you Oliver.
I could not recommend Network Plumbing, Electrical and Air Conditioning more highly! These people were incredible in their service, workmanship and remarkable turnaround time and everyone I dealt with was wonderful! After the first company I called to replace our broken water heater charged me to send someone to check it and then couldn’t even give me an estimate of when they could install a new one, I called Network at 2pm and had a new water heater in by 8pm. Could not be more impressed with Will, Bill and Ryan for their amazing work and professionalism! It was a great experience dealing with this company and I will definitely use them again.
Andrew , Liam and Phil were fantastic , really hard workers and did a excellent job. Highly recommended!
Good communication and response to problem
I had Jake and Sandro do two seperate jobs in quick succession and they were both excellent, speedy, clear communication, good workmanship. Would recommend
I have 4 kids and our air conditioning broke down on a really hot day — total chaos! I called Network Plumbing Services and Sally was so lovely taking my booking, super understanding and helpful. Sarkis arrived within the hour and had everything up and running so quickly. He was friendly, professional, and explained everything clearly. Couldn’t be more grateful for such fast and reliable service — highly recommend!
After a very satisfactory resolution by Network Plumbing, I wish to upgrade the rating I gave them earlier about their somewhat excessive charge. Network Plumbing acknowledged their over-estimation and met all my demands promptly, generously and with integrity. Impressive 5-star performance in this case. Thank you!
Sandro came this morning to replace a toilet. He was extremely professional and efficient. He was punctual and very courteous.
Peter responded promptly to our emergency call out and in addition to fixing the issue was very friendly and offered good advice
Fasts and reliable. Jake magic hands did a great job.
Matt, Joey & Levi did an excellent job replacing our damaged sewer pipe & leaving the dug up area in great condition. Thanks guys. Today Cameron installed our .new laundry cabinet. Looks great thanks.
I had Scott and the boys out to do a re-line. Very helpful and explained what was happening. They were all very polite and left my place clean and tidy. I would recommend them to anyone.
Team Tom and Cameron is absolutely amazing! Quickly identified the cause of blockage and cleared it up thoroughly. I really appreciated them for explaining the problem and their solution in plain words as I had no idea how the plumbings work; my 6 yo son was all ears as Tom described how they tackle the problem and now he is totally fascinated. 100% recommend Network Plumbing.
Great service. I really appreciated the thorough job and explanation of problem.
Tristan was punctual and absolutely helpful resolving the issue. Initially thought the issue is a damp motor failure. However, Tristan thoroughly tested other scenarios may be causing the issue, and diagnosed the underlying problem without having to replace any parts. Thank you Tristan for the great work and honesty. Highly recommend this business and will use them again for sure!
Excellent service and attitude. Very patient and understanding working around my 97 year old mother. On time, polite and courteous. Thank you Sandro, Reece and Rob for your work , both plumbing and electrical.

Hot water is an important thing to have for the operation of your household, so, whether you have a solar hot water tank, electric or gas, hot water systems also need to have a regular service to ensure it is running smoothly and efficiently.
