Tap Repair on the Costa del Sol

A tap that keeps dripping is easy to ignore until the sound follows you round the kitchen or bathroom. A loose handle, a leak at the base or a control that’s hard to turn can also signal a repair is due. We’ll identify the fault before recommending a fix.

We’re based in Calahonda and cover the Costa del Sol from San Pedro de Alcántara to Benalmádena. Greg has worked as a and has been. Our work is covered by a one-year warranty, and we explain what it covers before we start.

Is the tap leaking from the spout or the base?

Where the water appears can help narrow down the fault. A drip from the spout, moisture around the base and a leak beneath the basin are different clues. Take a photo of the tap and the area below it, then tell us whether the leak continues when the tap is closed.

If you can safely reach the isolation valve beneath the sink, you may be able to turn off the water to that tap while waiting. Don’t force a stiff valve. Let us know what you’ve tried when you message.

Repair or replace: how do we decide?

We inspect the tap, its connections and the accessible pipework before confirming whether repair or replacement makes sense. The answer depends on the fitting and the fault. If a replacement is needed, we’ll discuss the options and agree the price before any work starts.

We fit bathroom and shower tap makes including Roca, Grohe, Puya, Proinco and Fontia. A clear picture of the existing tap helps us identify the style and plan for compatible materials. If the issue is with a shower control rather than a basin or kitchen tap, our shower repair service may be the better fit.

What happens after you contact us?

WhatsApp is a useful way to show us the problem. Send a photo, or a short video if the leak only appears when the tap is running. We aim to respond within about 10 minutes, then exchange any details needed to assess the job remotely.

We buy the parts we expect to need before travelling, agree the price with you up front and send an ETA update while on the way. When we arrive, we check the tap and the relevant connections, confirm the repair and carry out the agreed work. Our white VW Transporter carries the tools we use for plumbing repairs, including a Dexter wrench and Worx drills.

We also use Leroy Merlin and Suministros de Fontanería Calahonda for plumbing materials. The specific part depends on the fitting already installed, so we check what you have before buying. That small step helps us arrive prepared for the job you described.
