New Tap Installation
Premium Brands & A Premium Finish
Fitting a new tap looks straightforward until you’re underneath the unit trying to thread a flexi hose through a 30mm gap. Connections need to be tight without being overtightened, seals need to sit properly, and the tap itself needs to be square against the worktop or basin. We’ve seen plenty of taps fitted in a hurry start leaking within months.
At NJ Harkus, we fit taps throughout the house, from kitchen mixers to bath fillers and the smaller monobloc taps in cloakrooms. We regularly fit Bristan, Grohe, Hansgrohe, Vado, Franke and Quooker taps, so we know how they go together and where they tend to give problems.
Although boiling water and filter taps involve more work, including under-counter tanks and electrical connections, our skilled team of plumbers in Cardiff can handle the lot.

Tap Repairs
Repaired & Tested Before We Leave
Most dripping taps come down to a worn washer or a failed cartridge. Both are inexpensive parts, and most repairs are done within an hour. We’ll always check the cause before suggesting a replacement, and we’ll tell you straight if a new tap genuinely makes more sense than another repair.
We repair leaking taps, dripping spouts, stiff handles, loose fittings, and slow leaks that appear as damp patches under the unit. Where the issue is the underlying pipework or the isolation valve rather than the tap itself, we’ll sort that too.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our Tap Installation & Repair FAQs
My tap is dripping. Does it need replacing or can it be repaired?
In most cases, a dripping tap is a worn washer or a failed cartridge. Both are inexpensive parts, and the repair is usually done within an hour. We always check the cause before suggesting a new tap, and we’ll only recommend replacement if it’s genuinely the right call.
Do you fit boiling water taps such as Quooker taps?
Yes. We install Quooker and similar boiling water taps, including the under-counter tank and electrical connections. These installs take longer than a standard tap fitting, and we’ll talk you through what’s involved before the job starts.
What brands do you work with?
We regularly install Bristan, Grohe, Hansgrohe, Vado, Franke, and Quooker, and we’ll fit pretty much any reputable brand a customer has chosen. If you’ve found something less well-known, send us the make and model, and we’ll let you know how straightforward the installation is.
My tap is stiff or won't turn off properly. Can it be fixed?
Usually, yes. Stiff taps and taps that don’t shut off cleanly are typically due to a worn ceramic disc cartridge or a buildup of limescale, both of which are fixable without replacing the tap. We’ll diagnose the issue properly and tell you whether a repair or replacement is the right call.
