tap

Hi. New to this forum so please be gentle! The sink in my bathroom has been dripping lately, getting a bit worse over the last week. I was going to take the handles off and replace washers but I'm having a problem getting the handles off. Any suggestions? It says "PJH02" on the back of the tap...

Hi there, Here is a picture of my kitchen tap. My kitchen tap is leaking inside the base here. There are no moving parts here. It must have a tiny hole/split inside that's allowing water to dribble slowly out and then it runs over the base of the tap and on to the sink. I've tried...

I can fit the rest of the tap - but not sure on the real purpose of the white part ... it fits snugly around the nut ??? But do I need it ?? (See photo) I have the feeling this is a stupid question !!!

Hiya, I would like to replace my tap to a mixer tap. However, i can't release the top slicer nut (A), but i could unscrew the copper one (B). Is there a way that i could do it. Can i just turn the tap itself?

Hey guys, I was hoping for your advice as I have little experience of plumbing and want to have a bash at fixing this myself. Long story short, the bath tap/shower seems to only be able to run from very warm (at coldest) to quite hot (at it's hottest). So it doesn't go hot enough for a hot...

Hi, I have a TAP9157 - Lamona Chrome Professional Style Monobloc Tap which is dripping from the spout. After looking into it further i have found that this may be due to one of the 1/4 turn valves needing replacing. Looking online it seems that these are not standard and there are different...

Any ideas what this could be? Over past week, we have had a pressure drop from (mixer) Tap in Bathroom? Have checked with Water board, and nothing out of the ordinary and they asked me to check the water pressure coming into the house via downstairs Kitchen Cold tap. All seems normal... it...

My kitchen tap had a little wire mesh aerator/filter thing fitted to it (inside the nozzle) but it made the water flow too "smooth" and silent. I couldn't hear the hot water running and I was afraid that I would let sink overflow so I removed it and discarded it. I am now finding that the cold...

Hi. When I connect my expanding hose to my bath tap. The tap shuts off like it's blocked or like your finger is blocking it. However there are no blockages, the valves are all open but the hose will not expand as the water cuts off at the tap. Please help...

Hi I am hoping someone can help. I am trying to replace a tap but I am having real trouble getting the tap back nut off. I bought a basin wrench similar to this one: http://www.diy.com/departments/rothenberger-basin-wrench/139416_BQ.prd The problem is the space is so tight I cant open up the...

Hi guys, Today i have set about going to change my mono-bloc kitchen tap. Once i cleared out the cupboard i came across this odd looking fixing holding the tap to the sink, it would seem i now have to remove the tails before i can unscrew this fixing, i have looked for this type of fixing...

Hi I have two 'real coal' effect gas fires and I'd like the taps and pipes moved so they're not on show. Are you allowed to have the tap under the floor with a small access panel above it? I'm not going to do the job myself but I'd like to think about it before I call someone out. Also...

I have a mixer tap for my bathroom sink which is dripping about 1litre overnight. Happy to change the tap washer if possible, but don't know how to access it on the style of tap I have inherited from the previous owner. Can anyone help identify or do I need to replace the whole tap? Will post a...
