Outdoor Water Tap Installation & Repair in Gatineau

Complete Outdoor Water Taps in Gatineau

Outdoor water taps (hose bibs) are essential for watering gardens, washing cars, and countless other outdoor tasks. They're also vulnerable to freezing in Outaouais winters—a frozen outdoor tap can burst and cause serious water damage inside your walls. Plombier Gatineau installs, repairs, and winterizes outdoor water taps for homes throughout the region.

Modern frost-free hose bibs are designed to prevent freezing by placing the valve inside your heated space while the spout remains outside. If you have older conventional taps, or if your frost-free taps weren't installed correctly, you're at risk for freeze damage. We ensure your outdoor water access is both convenient and safe year-round.

Outdoor Tap Problems We Solve

Our licensed plumbers have the experience and equipment to handle:

• Leaking Taps — Drips from spouts or handles waste water and can cause foundation damage over time.
• Frozen/Burst Taps — Winter freeze damage is common and can cause hidden water damage inside walls.
• No Water Flow — Taps that won't open often have failed valve stems or debris blockages.
• Low Pressure — Reduced outdoor water flow may indicate supply line problems or valve issues.
• Incorrect Installation — Improperly installed frost-free taps freeze like conventional ones.
• Old Taps — Decades-old outdoor taps are both inconvenient and at high risk for failure.
