Hello,
Im going to refit a new bathroom and we are short on space. As such, we have decided to go for a bath with no tap holes and have the taps and mixer coming from the wall.
They turned up today and I expected there to be some kind of fixing bracket or something but all there is are 2 taps with 22mm connections and a mixer spout with nothing but a 22mm thread and a nut which secures it to the wall.
Im a little bemused because in order to tighten the nut and secure the spout Id need to finish the wall (tiled, grouted) but Id have to get behind the wall (stud luckily) to tighten the nut?? Any sugesstions.
Also, would I need to contruct some kind of frame to support the taps as there is nothing to secure them to the wall and I want to use pushfit for ease not copper??
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks.
