Kitchen & Laundry Sink Mixer Replacement Brisbane & Gold Coast
Replacing a leaking, stiff or outdated kitchen or laundry tap? JR Gas & Water supplies and installs a selected range of sink mixers across Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Logan, Ipswich, Redlands and Moreton Bay. Choose from a simple standard mixer, a taller gooseneck mixer or a pull-out kitchen mixer depending on how you use your sink and the style you prefer.
Which Kitchen or Laundry Mixer Should You Choose?
All three options are designed for kitchen or laundry use. The main difference is how much height, reach and flexibility you want around the sink.
Standard, Gooseneck or Pull-Out Sink Mixer?
You generally do not need an overly complicated tap selection process. For most existing kitchen and laundry sinks, the choice comes down to the height and functionality you want.
A standard sink mixer is the simplest option for replacing an existing kitchen or laundry mixer. It provides hot and cold water through one lever and normally has a swivel spout.
BEST FOR: SIMPLE REPLACEMENTS & VALUEA gooseneck mixer has a taller curved spout, giving you more room underneath the tap. This can make filling pots, buckets and larger containers easier.
BEST FOR: EXTRA CLEARANCE & MODERN STYLEA pull-out mixer adds an extendable handpiece and hose, allowing water to be directed around the sink rather than being limited to the fixed spout position.
BEST FOR: LARGE SINKS & EXTRA FLEXIBILITYKitchen Tap & Sink Mixer Replacement
Kitchen sink mixers are one of the most frequently used pieces of plumbing in the home. A mixer can become difficult to operate, develop leaks around the cartridge or spout, have deteriorated flexible hoses, or simply become outdated compared with the surrounding kitchen.
For a straightforward kitchen mixer replacement, the existing tap is removed and the replacement mixer is fitted to the existing sink or benchtop opening and connected to the existing accessible hot and cold water supplies.
Customers wanting a basic replacement can choose a conventional swivel mixer. A gooseneck mixer provides additional working clearance, while a pull-out kitchen mixer gives greater reach around the sink.
Laundry Sink & Mixer Tap Replacement
The same style of sink mixer can often be used in a laundry trough or laundry sink. A standard mixer is usually sufficient for normal hand washing and filling buckets, while a taller gooseneck can provide useful additional clearance over deeper laundry tubs.
Before installation, the available space should suit the selected mixer and the existing sink or benchtop opening. Pull-out mixers also require enough unobstructed space underneath the sink for the hose to move freely.
JR Gas & Water can supply and install the mixer as one booking, or assess unusual plumbing layouts where a standard replacement may not be suitable.
What Does a Standard Sink Mixer Replacement Include?
Our supplied-and-installed mixer options are designed around straightforward replacement of an existing compatible kitchen or laundry sink mixer.
Will a New Kitchen Mixer Fit My Existing Sink?
Most straightforward mixer replacements use the existing tap opening and existing hot and cold connections. However, the sink, benchtop, cabinetry and plumbing still need to be suitable for the selected mixer.
Installation can become more involved where the existing plumbing is damaged, isolation valves cannot be operated, connection points need relocating, access is restricted, or the sink or benchtop requires modification.

Common Questions About Sink Mixer Replacement
What is the difference between a sink mixer and a kitchen mixer?
The terms are often used interchangeably. A sink mixer combines hot and cold water through a single mixer body and outlet. Sink mixers are commonly installed in kitchens and laundries.
Can a kitchen sink mixer be used in a laundry?
Often, yes. Many sink mixers are suitable for both kitchen and laundry applications. The important factors are the available space, mixer opening, water connections and the amount of clearance required above the sink or laundry trough.
What is the advantage of a gooseneck kitchen mixer?
A gooseneck mixer has a taller curved outlet, providing more clearance between the sink and the spout. This is useful when filling larger pots, bottles, buckets or containers.
What is the advantage of a pull-out kitchen mixer?
A pull-out mixer has an extendable handpiece and flexible hose. It allows you to direct water around the sink, rinse larger cookware and reach areas that a fixed mixer outlet cannot.
Can you replace my existing kitchen mixer without changing the sink?
In many standard replacements, yes. If the existing mixer opening, water connections and available space are compatible, the old mixer can generally be removed and a new mixer installed without replacing the sink.
Do you need to modify the benchtop to replace a mixer?
Normally not for a compatible like-for-like replacement. Cutting, drilling or modifying sinks, stone or other benchtops is not part of a standard mixer replacement and would need to be assessed separately if required.
Which sink mixer does JR Gas & Water recommend?
For most customers wanting a balance of appearance, functionality and simplicity, our recommended option is the Raymor Projix Gooseneck Sink Mixer. Customers wanting the lowest cost straightforward replacement can choose the Essentials mixer, while the Madison is our option for customers specifically wanting a pull-out handpiece.
Can I see kitchen mixer installation pricing online?
Yes. JR Gas & Water displays current supplied-and-installed mixer options online so you can compare the available products, pricing and booking options before proceeding.
