What is a Stop tap?
Stop taps are a tap for water into your property all the water entering the building travels through this tap. This allows the water flow to be completely turned off, a feature that is essential for any kind of repair or maintenance work to be carried out in the building. Even a relatively simple job like replacing a bathroom tap would result in lots of water damage if the water was in full flow when the tap was removed!
