Our Process
How It Works
Site survey
We check supply location, pipe run and frost risk, then confirm the correct frost-proof sillcock, backflow device and isolation valve for your property.
Install and protect
We fit WRAS-compliant fittings, insulated sleeves and freeze-protection kits, make good any external brickwork or cladding, and test the connection to Water Regulations standards.
Commission and guarantee
We commission the tap, demonstrate isolation and winterising, hand over care notes and back the work with a five year workmanship guarantee.
Benefits
Why Choose us for Outside Tap Installation?
Right kit for the job
We use frost-proof sillcocks, WRAS-approved non-return valves and insulated freeze-protection from recognised manufacturers so the outside tap lasts through winter.
Local, proven workmanship
Based in Coventry with 20 years in construction, Tom McPhilimey runs a small, experienced team and every install carries a five year workmanship guarantee.
Full compliance and peace of mind
Installations meet Water Regulations and include backflow prevention. Gas Safe registered engineers are available for any related heating connections.
What we fit
Outside taps are only as good as the components behind the wall. We install frost-proof sillcocks with insulated sleeves, WRAS-compliant non-return valves or backflow preventers, corrosion-resistant compression fittings and an inline isolation stopcock so you can turn off the supply internally. Where needed we use insulated freeze-protection kits and tidy external plates or brickwork collars to keep the installation weather-resistant and discreet.
Repairs, replacements and service
We replace worn ball valves, repair leaking spindles and upgrade old taps to modern frost-resistant designs. For a no-nonsense assessment and clear next steps, call 07917 832581 or email tommcplumbing@outlook.com. Projects are managed in-house, so tiling, plastering or gentle brickwork repairs are coordinated for a tidy finish.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
A frost-proof sillcock has the valve mechanism set back inside the building where it is warmer, reducing the risk of freeze damage. In Coventry winters this prevents burst fittings and costly repairs, especially on exposed walls or north-facing gardens.
