How to fix leaking laundry taps?

[ron60]

Hi. I can't seem to stop these older style double outlet laundry tsps from leaking. Is there an easy solution or a replacement kit available?

Hi @ron60,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is great to have you with us.

I'll start by saying that plumbing is a licensed and regulated industry and if you are not confident in the repair, it may be worth contacting a plumber.

It is likely that you will need to replace the washers as they will degrade over time. Something like the FIX-A-TAP Soft Turn Tap Valve Repair Kit will usually be what's required for this repair.

I suggest removing the existing washer and taking it in store to match up with the new ones. I am sure the helpful team members at your local store would be happy to help.

Have a look at this handy guide on How to replace a tap washer from my colleague @EricL for some guidance.

Let me know if you require any further assistance.
