Hi there,

I need to replace my bathroom sink mixer tap but can't remove it from the sink for the life of me.

I've uploaded a few pictures of the tap from various angles. There doesn't seem to be any screws or allen key points.

Has anyone seen a tap like this before and knows how to remove it?

Many thanks
Matt

Underneath at the rear will be
usually a couple of flexi hoses supplying live
hot and cold which will need isolating. Then there will be a hexagonal long nut which can be undone using a flat head screwdriver usually, then you can withdraw the assembly from the top. Centralheatking
you can use a mirror to check otherwise do as RPM
suggests

I have a wall mounted bathroom tap that leaks. Presumably I need a washer of sorts replaced. I cannot work out which tool I need to remove the tap. There is a small hole (8mm?) to the side but I can’t seem to get a fixing from either a alum key or screwdriver. Ever hopeful…? Matt
