Tap / Mixer Replacement

Quote requiredProvider price, scope and timing are confirmed in an estimate

  • 45–90 minutestypical recorded duration
  • PGDBregister checked for regulated work

Eligibility and coverage are checked again before a provider can submit an estimate

Suitable for replacing one accessible kitchen, bathroom, or laundry tap with a customer-supplied unit that matches the existing mounting, water connections, and pressure system.

The plumber isolates the local water supply where possible, removes the existing tapware, fits the compatible replacement, reconnects suitable existing pipework, and checks the new installation for leaks under normal use.

Scope boundaries: The fixed scope assumes sound, accessible pipework and a replacement that fits the existing hole, bench, and connections. Hidden damage, altered pipework, extra drilling, or an incompatible product needs a separate change.

No fixed provider price or appointment is published here. Eligible providers define the work, milestones, price and timing in an estimate; Serproz adds no customer platform fee, and the customer chooses whether to accept it.

Only a claimed provider who passes the applicable verification and exact-job capability checks can submit an estimate. Nothing is charged when you post; after acceptance, review the provider's recorded job price before funding the agreed milestones.

What the scope covers

Scope, questions and quote basis

Review the published scope and price or estimate basis before you choose a provider.

Included

  • Removal of one existing tap or mixer from an accessible fixture
  • Installation of one compatible customer-supplied replacement
  • Use of fittings packaged with the replacement where suitable
  • Reconnect to sound, accessible existing water connections
  • Normal-use flow and leak check after installation
  • Tidy removal of the old tapware from the immediate work area

Exclusions and changes

  • The replacement tap or mixer, unless a separate supply item is agreed
  • Pipe relocation, damaged isolation valves, corroded pipework, pressure-system changes, or leak repairs outside the tap connections
  • Bench, sink, vanity, tile, cabinetry, or waterproofing alteration or repair
  • Additional taps, filtered-water systems, boiling-water units, or appliance connections
  • Work where water cannot be safely isolated within the booked visit

Quote basis

This page does not publish a fixed provider offer. Each eligible provider estimate must state the proposed scope, milestones, price and timing before the customer chooses one.

Before you request

What to confirm before you request

  • Do you already have the replacement tap, and can you share its model or connection details?
  • Is the tap fitted to a sink, bench, basin, bath, or wall?
  • Can the connections and isolation valves be reached inside the cabinet or behind an access panel?
  • Is there active leaking below the fixture, corrosion, swelling, or water damage?
  • Is the property on mains, low-pressure, or another known water-pressure system?
