Tap Washer and Cartridge Replacement
Accurate Repairs to Stop Leaks and Restore Smooth Operation
When a tap begins dripping, stiffening, or losing pressure, the issue often lies within the internal washer or cartridge. At Essex Heating Engineers, we provide precise tap washer and cartridge replacement carried out by experienced specialists who have spent more than 40 years maintaining homes across Essex. As a family-run business, we understand the frustration that even a small leak can cause, so every repair is approached with care, professionalism, and respect for your home.
Our engineers diagnose the exact cause of the fault, replace worn components, and ensure the tap functions correctly before completing the job. This avoids unnecessary full tap replacements and restores proper performance while preventing future water wastage.
Expert Replacement for All Tap Types and Mechanisms
Modern and traditional taps rely on small internal parts to create a watertight seal and control water flow. When those parts wear down, leaks and handling issues follow. We service a wide range of tap mechanisms and brands, ensuring every replacement is compatible and installed to high standards.
We can assist with:
• Traditional rubber washer replacements
• Ceramic disc cartridge replacements
• Quarter-turn and lever cartridge systems
• Mixer tap cartridges
• Hot and cold valve inserts
• Repairs for dripping, stiff, or noisy taps
Our team dismantles the tap carefully, cleans internal components, fits high-quality replacements, and tests performance thoroughly. The result is a smooth, reliable tap that operates as it should.
