What finish and position was used for the external tap?

The tap fitted is chrome, mounted at low level on the red brick wall to the right-hand side of the building. That position keeps the connection practical for connecting a garden hose, as seen coiled on the ground nearby.

Does the construction of the wall affect how an external tap is fitted?

Brick walls like the one here require the supply pipe to pass cleanly through the masonry to reach the outside. The precise method and whether any internal pipework needs altering depends on what is found on the other side of the wall, so a proper look at the internal layout is always needed before the work is priced.
