In this video I show you how to replace your old sink taps and spout (Faucet) with new ones. This is a really cheap and easy way to make your bathroom look more modern or replace old and broken taps. I was prepared to replace the mixing pipes and everything but it turns out the old taps can be simply removed and replaced.

The spout is the trickiest part mate, that's the part we need to see lol

@berko79 2 жыл бұрын

haha yeah i know. I really couldn't film that part it was just too cramped. Got an adjustable spanner on the nut and just loosened it then spun the nut off. it then just pulled straight up.

How do I stop it leaking😅

@winstonwithy7036 3 жыл бұрын

I have the exact same tap system like yours, my gooseneck spout cannot be fully turned around to unwind it as it's too close to the vanity wall. How did you untighten from underneath? to me it looks really intimidating and I am not sure how to do it. it is very narrow underneath as it got blocked by the belly of the vanity sink. What kind of tool you used to take off the spout?

@berko79 3 жыл бұрын

Yes, it was a bit of a squeeze inside the vanity. I cant remember exactly how i did it, but it wasnt has bad as I thought it was. i think to undo the spout i used an adjustable spanner (wrench) and just put it up vertically. When you get about 1/4 of a turn it will be finger tight.

Hi I got the same taps as you, however I couldn't unscrew the spindle off the rest of the bottom part as you show at 2.13. Mine doesn't just screw off as yours. How do I do it ??

@berko79 6 ай бұрын

Did you have any luck? sometimes it looks like they dont come apart but you can undo it - if it doesnt even have a spanner spot at all you may need to replace the whole thing back to the pipe unfortunately.

How do u take the body off the tap, to just replace the top bits

@berko79 2 жыл бұрын

you mean what i did at about 1:40? you just undo them with an adjustable spanner and they come out. They can be a bight tight if they havent been done for a while

You didn’t show me the tool you used to tighten it at the end, you have to show the camera and tell us where we can get it from. I have no idea

It really is pretty basic but it depends on your level of DIY experience I guess. If it looks tricky from the video it might be best to leave it to the professionals.
