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

How Our Garden Tap Fitting Process Works

We take pride in a tidy, straightforward installation process that respects your home and property. First, we assess the best location for your new garden tap, typically positioning it near a kitchen sink, utility room, or existing external pipework to tap into the mains water supply efficiently.Once a route is planned, we drill neatly through your masonry, ensuring minimal disruption. Because properties in Keynsham and Somerset often deal with hard water scaling, we use highly durable, corrosion-resistant brass fittings to guarantee long-term reliability. After the installation is complete, we rigorously test the water pressure, check for any micro-leaks, and leave the work area exactly as we found it.

The Benefits of WRAS Approved Outdoor Plumbing

When installing a new water outlet, regulatory compliance is crucial for the safety of your home's water supply. As professional plumbers, we strictly follow water regulation compliance standards. Every outside tap we fit is fully WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) approved.A critical part of this compliance is the inclusion of a double check valve. This essential mechanism prevents back-siphonage, stopping potentially contaminated garden water from being drawn back into your clean drinking water supply. By choosing BC Plumbing, you are guaranteed a safe, legal, and highly reliable outdoor plumbing solution.

Why Do You Need An Internal Isolation Valve?

One of the most common plumbing emergencies during a British winter is frozen and burst pipes. To protect your home, we fit an internal isolation valve as standard with every new outside tap installation.This simple but vital component allows you to easily shut off the water supply to the outside tap from inside your home before the freezing weather sets in. Once isolated, you can drain the remaining water from the external tap, completely removing the risk of the pipe freezing, expanding, and splitting. It is a proactive step that provides total peace of mind during the colder months.

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.
