Most homeowners put up with the hassle far longer than they need to. A missing or broken outdoor tap is a small thing that quietly annoys you every single week.

A hose trailed through the house every time you needed water outside.
Watering cans filled at the kitchen sink, then carried out dripping
No simple way to wash the car, the bins, muddy boots, or the dog
An old garden tap that drips, sticks, or has seized up completely
An existing tap with no isolation valve, at risk of bursting in a frost

SERVICE DETAILS

Everything You Need to Know

Tap Options

Choose a standard bib tap, a lever tap for wet or gloved hands, or a frost-resistant tap for extra winter protection. We help you pick the right outdoor tap for how you will actually use it.

Backflow Protection

UK water regulations require a double check valve on every outside tap, to stop garden water siphoning back into your drinking supply. We fit a compliant valve as standard on every job.

Frost Protection

An internal isolation valve lets you shut off and drain the tap before a hard frost, the single best way to prevent a burst pipe. We fit one as standard and show you how to use it.

Pipework & Connection

We connect your new tap to the nearest suitable point on your existing supply, running clean, well-supported pipework in copper or plastic as the job requires. Neat runs, secure fixings.

Wall Fitting & Sealing

We fit garden taps to brick, block, and rendered walls, drill a clean penetration, and seal it properly against water and draughts. The finished tap looks like it was always meant to be there.

Replacement & Repair

As well as new installations, we replace old, dripping, or seized taps, and add the isolation and check valves an older outside tap may be missing to bring it up to standard.

Free In-Home Consultation

One of our plumbing specialists visits your home across South West Wales, checks the best position for your new outside tap, reviews the nearest suitable water supply, and discusses how you plan to use it. Whether you need a new outdoor tap or want to replace an existing one, the consultation is completely free and comes with no obligation.

Assessment & Fixed Quote

We assess your existing pipework, wall type, access, and the fittings required for your outside tap installation. We then recommend the most suitable setup and provide a clear, fixed-price quote for fitting an outside tap, so you know exactly what the work will cost before installation begins.

Pipework & Preparation

Before fitting the outside tap, we prepare the connection point, install or adapt the necessary pipework, and make sure the route is neat, secure, and suitable for long-term use. We also prepare the wall penetration and mounting position so your new outdoor tap installation can be completed cleanly and safely.

Outside Tap Installation & Fitting

Your new outside tap is securely mounted and connected to your existing water supply. Our outside tap fitting service includes the correct valves and fittings, including a double check valve and internal isolation valve, helping the installation meet UK water regulations and making it easier to protect your pipework during colder weather.

Testing & Sealing

Once the outside tap installation is complete, we test the water flow, inspect every connection for leaks, check the valves, and seal the wall penetration against water and draughts. Every part of the installation is checked before the job is signed off.

Final Walkthrough

We show you how to use your new outdoor tap, explain how to isolate and drain it before winter, and make sure you are happy with the finished work. Whether we fit an outside tap for the first time or replace an old one, we leave the installation clean, secure, and ready to use.

FAQs

Common Questions

Still have questions? Our South West Wales plumbers are ready to help right now.

How much does it cost to fit an outside tap?

The cost depends on how far the tap is from your existing supply and how easy the pipe run is. A straightforward job near a pipe is quick and affordable, while a longer run takes more work. We give you a fixed written quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.

How long does it take to fit an outside tap?

Most outdoor tap installations take around one to two hours. A trickier pipe run or a solid wall can take a little longer, and we will always tell you what to expect in your quote.

Do I legally need a check valve on an outside tap?

Yes. UK water regulations require a double-check valve on an outdoor tap to stop garden water from flowing back into your drinking supply. We fit a compliant one as standard on every installation.

Can you stop my outdoor tap from freezing in winter?

Yes. We fit an internal isolation valve so you can shut off and drain the tap before a hard frost, which is the simplest way to prevent a burst pipe. We can also fit frost-resistant taps for extra protection.

Can I fit an outdoor tap myself?

You can, but a DIY job often misses the check valve and isolation valve, may breach water regulations, and is more likely to leak or freeze. A professional fits it correctly, compliantly, and usually in a single visit.

Can you fit an outside tap to any wall?

In most cases, yes. We fit taps to brick, block, and rendered walls, running the supply from the nearest suitable point inside. We will confirm the best position during your quote.
