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

How Our Outside Tap Installation Works

We believe in transparent, hassle-free service from the moment you contact us. When we arrive at your property, we first conduct a quick site assessment to determine the best location for your new tap. We look for the most accessible mains water supply, which is usually found under the kitchen sink or near an existing utility room pipe. Our experts will discuss the optimal pipe route with you to ensure maximum convenience and minimal disruption to your home.Once the position is agreed upon, our outside tap fitting process begins. We carefully drill through the exterior wall, ensuring a neat and tidy finish. We then run the necessary copper or modern plastic pipework, securely fixing the new brass tap to your outside wall. Crucially, we always install an internal isolation valve as part of the setup. This allows you to easily shut off the water supply to the outside tap from inside your home, giving you complete control and peace of mind.

The Benefits of Professional Outside Tap Fitting

While DIY kits are available, choosing a professional plumber guarantees long-term reliability and safety. Poorly installed outdoor plumbing is a leading cause of winter plumbing emergencies. By fitting a dedicated internal isolation valve, we ensure you can easily drain down the outside pipework before freezing temperatures hit. This simple, professional touch drastically reduces the risk of frozen and burst pipes, protecting your property from costly water damage.Furthermore, the Bath and North East Somerset area is known for its hard water, which can quickly degrade cheap fixtures. We use highly durable, corrosion-resistant brass fittings designed to withstand heavy scaling and harsh weather conditions. Whether you need a standard cold water feed or a specialised hot water outdoor tap for washing pets, our professional outdoor plumbing installations are built to last.

Regulatory and WRAS Compliance

When altering your home's water supply, compliance with local water regulations is an absolute must. Every outside tap we install features a highly important double check valve. This legal requirement acts as a critical safety barrier, preventing contaminated garden water from back-siphoning into your clean drinking water supply. Without this valve, a simple drop in water pressure could pull dirty water back into your home's main system.At BC Plumbing, we are fully committed to water safety. We strictly use WRAS approved (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) materials for all our installations. As Plumbing Part 1 and 2 qualified professionals, we bring a high level of technical expertise to every job. You can rest assured that your new garden tap will be fully compliant, safe, and expertly fitted by a trained local specialist.

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.
