Outside Taps (Its not another outside tap thread)

[plumben]

so the kitchen job that im on thats turned into a boiler swap and new bathroom in the new year,
I was asked if i could look at the outside tap that was fitted by a reputable plumber 2-3 months ago but is been dripping constant,

First off there was no DCV or isolation valve, not sleaved or taped through the wall, the pipe through the wall was made up of two bits of copper so a joint in the wall and then when you get outside this is what im met with, either we've been doing it wrong all these years or i need to up my prices for fitting outside taps if this is what you get for £50

tbh thats about normal round here and they go in the winter time so you get a few phoning you up

The tap & pipe looks more like 20 years old... Custard is telling fibs I reckon

£50 including tap? Bargain

the customer said it looked like that straight after he'd fitted it, i think he took it out the scrap bin
