Installing an outside tap is an excellent addition to any home, making garden maintenance easier and more convenient. Whether you’re watering plants, washing the car, or simply hosing down outdoor surfaces, having quick access to water is essential. At The Handy Squad, our expert plumbers provide reliable outside tap installations tailored to your specific needs.

Before the plumbing installation begins, it’s important to decide between copper or plastic pipes. While plastic pipes are easier to handle and quicker to install, copper pipes typically last longer and offer greater durability over time. Our experienced team at The Handy Squad will guide you through choosing the best materials, ensuring that your outside tap installation not only meets your immediate needs but remains durable and functional for years to come.
Choosing the right outdoor tap is also crucial. Our qualified plumbers can install a wide range of taps, from traditional brass outdoor taps to modern stainless steel and chrome garden taps. We also install double garden taps, freestanding garden taps, antique garden taps, and even convenient plastic Elgo taps. Whichever style you prefer, all outdoor taps fitted by our team comply fully with British Standards, guaranteeing quality and safety.
The installation process is straightforward when a water supply is accessible close to an external wall, such as near your kitchen or utility room. Our team will carefully drill through the wall, connect the tap securely to your existing plumbing, and ensure everything is sealed to prevent leaks or potential damage.

However, if your property doesn’t have an accessible water source close to the outside wall, there’s no need to worry. Although this scenario involves additional work and planning, our plumbers at The Handy Squad have the skills and expertise to handle more complex installations seamlessly. We will extend and reroute your plumbing safely and efficiently, minimising disruption and ensuring you have an effective outdoor tap exactly where you need it.
Trusting The Handy Squad means relying on experienced professionals who will carry out the installation swiftly, neatly, and reliably. We pride ourselves on delivering excellent customer service, always leaving your home tidy once the job is done.
So, if you’re looking to enhance your garden’s functionality with an outside tap, get in touch with The Handy Squad today. Our skilled team is ready to assist, making your outdoor tap installation stress-free and efficient.
