Advice on an outside tap says whether the branch is a dead leg, whether it can be isolated, and whether it should be removed. On this visit we pay attention to how often the tap is used; whether it isolates; and whether removal is more honest than a flush. Advice does not include digging the garden up. A tap used every week is not described as a dead leg just because it is outside. HSE Approved Code of Practice L8 and HSG274 are the usual references. This page is not legal advice and not a medical opinion. A temperature, a flush or a sample is evidence at a point in time. It does not mean the building stays free of risk. Coverage is Greater Manchester and the wider North West from Stockport. Tell us the postcode, who uses the building, and whether hot or cold water is stored. Sampling, tank cleaning and any chemical step are separate lines when they are justified. We do not invent a laboratory badge or a per-sample price on this page.

Outside Tap Dead Leg Advice FAQ
Is every outside tap a dead leg?+
No. Use and isolation decide it. A tap run weekly is a used outlet.
Can you cap it at the wall?+
If a small plumbing job is quoted and the pipe can be left safe, yes. Advice alone does not include the cap.
