Hi
Ive never really done any kind of plumbing work before and getting a plumber in is unfortunatly financially not possible.
I want to fit a new bath/shower mixer tap myself, after removing the old taps (which hopefully shouldnt be too bad, hopefully)
i was thinking:
cut the pipe back a bit with special tool, and use http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/pro.jsp?ts=64269&id=39492 which just pushes onto the pipe?
The thing im mainly confused about is, will i need a washer and if so what kind, to go on the other end where the tap connects ?
It all sounds so simple, i have a feeling it wont be.
The pipes going into the taps are 22mm on the hot and 15mm on the cold from a combi.
Any advice would be a massive help, Thanks
