Why Choose BC Plumbing for Outside Tap Installations in Frome & Somerset?

How Our Garden Tap Fitting Process Works

When you book an outside tap installation with us, we take a careful, methodical approach to ensure a tidy and professional finish. First, we assess the best location for your new hose union bib tap, usually aligning it with existing pipework such as your kitchen sink, utility room, or downstairs toilet.We then safely drill through your exterior masonry, ensuring the hole is properly sealed to prevent draughts and damp. Next, we connect the new pipework to your mains water supply, fitting a dedicated isolation valve inside your property. This allows you to easily turn off the water supply to the outside tap during winter, protecting against frozen and burst pipes. Finally, we install the tap securely to the wall and test the water pressure to ensure a perfect flow.

WRAS Compliance and Water Safety Measures

When connecting any new outlet to your mains water supply, safety and regulatory compliance are our top priorities. All our outdoor plumbing work strictly adheres to WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) guidelines. This ensures that your drinking water remains safe and uncontaminated from external hazards.A critical part of our Bruton plumbing service is the installation of a double check valve. This mechanism is legally required for most garden taps, as it prevents standing water in your garden hose from flowing backwards into your clean mains water supply. By choosing BC Plumbing, you are guaranteeing an installation that is not only highly functional but completely compliant with UK water safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions About Outside Taps

Can an outside tap be installed anywhere? While it is most cost-effective to install a tap on an external wall directly behind existing plumbing (like a kitchen sink), we can carefully reroute pipes to place your tap exactly where you need it.How do I stop my garden tap from freezing in winter? We install an internal isolation valve with every tap. Simply turn this valve off before winter sets in, and open the outside tap to drain any residual water. This protects the pipework from freezing and prevents costly burst pipes.Do I need a double check valve? Yes, a double check valve is essential for WRAS compliance to stop potentially contaminated hose water from backing up into your mains supply. We include this high-quality safety feature as standard in all our installations.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional outside tap installation services in Frome, Somerset & Wiltshire and surrounding areas.

Why Choose BC Plumbing?

+

When you choose BC Plumbing, you are hiring a local expert who cares about the community. We aren't a faceless national franchise; we are a dedicated local business that prides itself on being responsive and transparent. Our lead plumber is fully qualified with Plumbing Part 1 and 2, and is G3 certified, which is the gold standard for working on complex hot water systems. This level of training means even a "simple" job like an outside tap is handled with the same technical precision as a full bathroom refit.
We are also fully covered by Public Liability Insurance, so you can have complete confidence while we are working on your property. We believe in "right first time" plumbing—no cutting corners, no hidden costs, just honest, high-quality workmanship. If you need a friendly, professional plumber who turns up when they say they will, BC Plumbing is the right choice for you.

Can I have an outside tap fitted if my kitchen isn't near an outside wall?

+

Yes, it is usually possible. While a "back-to-back" install (where the tap is directly on the other side of the kitchen wall) is the simplest method, we can often run pipework through floor voids or along skirting to reach the desired spot. We will always discuss the neatest and most cost-effective route with you before starting.

Will my outside tap freeze in the winter?

+

Any pipe containing water can freeze if the temperature drops low enough. However, we install an internal isolation valve with every tap. In the winter, you can turn this valve off and drain the external tap to prevent any water from sitting in the pipework where it could freeze and cause a burst. We can also provide insulated covers for extra protection.

What is a hose union bib tap?

+

This is the standard term for a traditional garden tap. The "bib" refers to the shape, and the "hose union" means the end of the tap is threaded. This allows you to easily screw on a plastic or brass hose connector so your garden hose stays securely attached even under high pressure.

Do you install hot water outside taps?

+

Yes, we do. Hot water outside taps are becoming very popular for people who want to wash their dogs with warm water or fill up a paddling pool quickly. This requires running both a hot and cold feed to a mixing valve, and we can certainly help you with this upgrade.
