Outside Tap Installation
Outside Tap Installation
An outside tap makes garden watering and car washing far easier. Fitted correctly, it's compliant, frost-protected and won't leave you with a damp wall.
Outside Tap Installation in North London, done properly the first time
We take a tee from a suitable internal cold pipe, fit an indoor isolation valve and a WRAS-compliant double check valve to protect the mains, then drill through and mount the tap on a solid backplate with the hole sealed properly.
Frost-proof taps and drain-down arrangements are available for exposed walls, which matters on Barnet's north-facing elevations. Most installations are completed in a couple of hours with minimal mess.

Your questions, answered
How much does an outside tap cost to fit?
We quote a fixed price up front. A straightforward install off an accessible internal pipe is one of our quickest jobs.
Is a check valve legally required?
Yes — water regulations require backflow protection on outside taps, and we fit a double check valve as standard.
Will it freeze in winter?
Not if you close the indoor isolation valve and drain it, or opt for a frost-proof tap. We show you how at handover.
Can you fit a tap far from the kitchen?
Yes, we can run pipework through a garage, utility or along an internal wall to reach the position you want.
Which areas of North London do you cover for outside tap installation?
We provide outside tap installation across the whole of North London, including Barnet, Finchley, Muswell Hill, Hampstead, Highgate, Enfield and the surrounding N, NW and EN postcodes. Local engineers means short call-out times wherever you are.
