Malc. to do it yourself, you need..........
a water pipe INSIDE where you want to put your outside tap.
a kit from a DIY store( which will have all the fittings, and more, besides........
A drill and bit long enough to get through the wall .and capable of making a hole through the wall, about 3/4 inch diameter.....a couple of hours spare and some pipe grips..and screwdriver... a drill bit to do the rawplugs...... ..AND of course, the inclination, to actually do it yourself.......

best O luck mate!!
