SOUND FAMILIAR?

Need an Outside Tap in Islington?

From new gardens to upgrading an old, unreliable tap, these are the situations Islington homeowners bring to us most often.

No Outside Tap at All

Common in Angel and Finsbury Park’s converted flats and gardens, never fitted with a garden supply.

Existing Tap Keeps Freezing

A standard tap without frost protection can split in cold weather — a frost-free upgrade solves this permanently.

Tap in the Wrong Position

Common in Highbury and Archway gardens where the original tap position no longer suits how the space is used.

Leaking or Dripping Tap

An old or worn outside tap wasting water and pushing up your bill unnecessarily.

How We Install Your Outside Tap in Islington

A quick, tidy job with minimal disruption to your garden or property.

Assess the Position

We identify the best route from your internal supply and agree a fixed price before any work begins.

Run the Supply Pipe

Pipework routed from your internal system to the chosen external position, minimising disruption.

“Never had an outside tap in our Angel garden flat. Fitted quickly and cleanly, really useful for watering plants without running a hose through the kitchen.”

FAQs

Outside Tap Installation in Islington — Questions Answered

A standard outside tap starts from £145, a frost-free version from £185, and longer pipe runs or repositioned taps from £220 depending on distance and access. All prices are fixed and agreed before work starts.

A frost-free tap has its shut-off valve positioned inside the property, so the exposed section of pipe drains automatically when turned off — preventing it from freezing and splitting in cold weather. A standard tap doesn't have this protection.

Most standard and frost-free tap installations are completed within 1–2 hours. Longer pipe runs or repositioned taps can take 2–4 hours depending on distance and access.

Yes. We install outside taps across the entire Islington borough — Angel, Finsbury Park, Highbury, Holloway, Archway and Finsbury/Clerkenwell — postcodes N1, N4, N5, N7, N19 and EC1.
Yes. We can reroute pipework to reposition an existing tap to a more convenient location in your garden, priced after an on-site assessment.

If you have a standard (non frost-free) tap, it's worth isolating the internal shut-off valve and draining the tap before the first hard frost each year. A frost-free tap does this automatically once switched off.
