Taps and Sinks in Oakville

Dripping faucets, low flow at the tap, mineral-clogged aerators, running supply valves, and leaking drain baskets are among the most common plumbing calls across Oakville homes. While many of these issues appear simple, incorrect diagnosis leads to the wrong part being replaced, and the problem recurring within weeks. Birnie Plumbing & Drains identifies the correct cause before recommending any repair, and uses quality replacement components that outlast the discount parts that cause repeat service calls.

01

Diagnose the Fault

Drip source, flow restriction, aerator condition, drain basket seal, supply valve function: all assessed before recommending any repair.

02

Select Correct Parts

Manufacturer-matched cartridges, seats, and seals, or quality replacement equivalent, sourced for a lasting repair.

03

Complete the Repair

Repair completed with proper torque, correct seating, and water supply valves tested to confirm they are operating and sealing correctly.

04

Test Flow and Drainage

Flow rate, temperature response, and drain clearing speed are verified before sign-off.

05

Cleanup and Guarantee

Full cleanup of the work area. Workmanship guarantee on all labour and installed components.

Stops Water Waste Immediately

A dripping tap at 10 drops per minute wastes over 3,000 litres annually. A correct repair eliminates waste and reduces your water bill from the next billing cycle.

Correct Fault Identified First

The wrong replacement component solves nothing. We identify the actual fault: seat wear, cartridge failure, or supply valve issue, before ordering any part.

Quality Parts That Last

Manufacturer-matched or quality-equivalent components outlast discount parts significantly, reducing the frequency of repeat service calls.

Under-Sink Supply Valve Replacement

Supply valves that do not fully shut off are a hidden risk during plumbing emergencies. We replace stuck or corroded valves so you have reliable isolation when you need it.

Complete Drain Basket Reseal

A leaking drain basket under the sink saturates the cabinet floor and the subfloor beneath. We reseal or replace the basket and inspect for existing water damage.

Aerator and Flow Restoration

Mineral-clogged aerators reduce flow and alter spray pattern. We clean or replace aerators and check for upstream supply line issues affecting pressure.

Workmanship Guaranteed

All tap and sink repair work is covered by our full workmanship guarantee on labour and installed components.
