Tom came and fitted an outside tap for us. He has done a brilliant job, kept in touch in the lead up to the work and was really informative about the process. The work was really clean and tidy. I would highly recommend Tom, we will certainly be contacting him for any future plumbing needs we have.

Outside Tap Installation
A new outside tap fitted neatly, with an internal isolation valve and a check valve to protect your drinking water — ideal for gardens, cars and window cleaning.
An outside tap is one of the most useful small jobs you can have done — no more hoses running through the kitchen window. Fitted properly, it will not freeze, will not leak into the wall and will not risk contaminating your mains supply.
Tom fits outside taps with an internal isolation valve, so it can be drained down for winter, and a check valve to stop garden water being drawn back into the house supply. As one customer put it: "arrived on time, worked cleanly and left everything spotless."
What's included
- New outside tap supply and fitting
- Internal isolation valve for winter drain-down
- Double check valve to protect drinking water
- Neat, clipped pipework through the wall
- Replacing old or leaking outside taps
- Frost-damaged outside tap repairs
Simple, straightforward, done properly
Choose the position
The best spot is chosen for convenience and the shortest, neatest route from your supply.
Drill and run
A clean hole is drilled through the wall and pipework run and clipped neatly.
Fit and protect
Tap, isolation valve and check valve are fitted and the hole sealed.
Test and tidy
Water is run, joints are checked, and you are shown how to isolate it for winter.
Winter care for your outside tap
Yorkshire winters can freeze an outside tap solid, and a frozen pipe can split inside the wall. Each autumn, shut the internal isolation valve and open the outside tap to drain it. A tap cover adds extra protection.

Tom came out today at short notice to mend a leak for us, and we couldn’t be happier with the service. He was extremely polite, professional, and got straight to work without fuss. The job was sorted quickly, neatly, and without disruption. It’s rare to find someone so reliable and courteous at such short notice. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tom and will definitely call him again if we need help. Thank you Tom!
Fantastic service and communication from Tom. We had a drainage issue that other plumbers who went out were not able to resolve. Tom came up with a solution that was cost effective and worked perfectly. Would highly recommend using Tom for plumbing and drainage jobs.
