    Watched this at the right time as I need to replace my Laundry tap. The handle of the tap has split, spurting water out sideways every time. I have been putting up with it for almost a year ...as one does. I finally showed one of my friends, he is going to attempt to remove and put in a new one. I will get him to watch this first. Thanks.

    I had the hot hose burst on my old kitchen tap tonight! Thank you for these straight forward, easy to follow instructions. It gave me confidence to be able to successfully replace it with the new kitchen tap I already had waiting to go! Thanks :)

      Aha that will solve the problem. Unfortunately it’s out of stock on amazon at the moment. Other option I have is to remove the whole sink. Remove the old tap and replace with new before reattaching the sink.

    Can't understand why you didn't fully assemble the threaded bolt and securing plate before passing it all through the hole! So much easier that all that fiddling from below. The plate is crescent-shaped to allow you to do that.
