Can anyone help please
I'm trying to fit a shower mixer tap for my mum who is nagging me constantly to have a shower fitted. Problem straight away !!!
The stop tap under the sink is well stiff. It's an open gravity system with two tanks in the loft - shutting the hot water off wouldn't be a problem as i could just drain the main tank by lifting up the ballcock. Obviously the cold needs to be shut off at the main stop tap under the sink as there is no isolating valves in the bathroom at all.
I've tried using a rag and with all my strength to turn it to the right but it doesn't budge a milimetre. I've blasted it with WD40 and left for an hour and still no joy - Got a little desperado and slightly tapped it with a hammer but still doesn't move a cat's whisker. Well that's it job failed miserably unless someone can help. I don't want to attack it too much just incase the dam thing snaps off and floods the kitchen
I've had a look for the outside one in the garden but no signs unless that's it outside on the pavement near the road.
Any advise on this please.
