 5 Star Service 
If you are replacing a tired old mixer or upgrading to a pull out spray, the cost to fit a kitchen tap on the Gold Coast typically falls between $200 and $250 for labour when you supply the tap. If you want us to supply a quality mid range mixer and the small parts needed, a straight swap is usually $275 to $500 plus depending on the brand, features and site conditions. For urgent after hours work, expect a higher call out and labour rate.
These are guide only figures. We confirm a fixed price on site once we see access, parts and the condition of your fittings.
What affects the price
Tap type and features
A basic mixer is faster to fit than a pull out sprayer, three piece set, filter or boiling water tap. More parts and hoses can add time.
Access under the sink
Tight cabinetry, seized nuts, corroded threads or stuck isolation valves can slow things down.
Condition of existing parts
Old flexi hoses, cracked seals or missing isolation valves may need replacing for safety and warranty.
Timing
Urgent evening or weekend call outs attract higher rates. If the tap is leaking badly and you need fast help, our team provides 24 hours service across the Coast. You can read more about emergencies in our guide, When is a plumbing issue an emergency?
What is usually included in a standard install
- Isolating water and protecting the area
- Removing the old tap and cleaning the surface
- Fitting the new tap and sealing correctly
- Connecting hoses and testing for leaks
- Basic clean up
May add to the total: replacement of flexi hoses, isolation valves, waste trap adjustments, benchtop cut out changes, premium tapware supply and urgent after hours attendance.

Ways to save without cutting corners
