How to Replace Shower Tap Washers - Australia

[@sunniyaibrar4372]

Thank you so much for sharing this video. It really helped me. We moving from a tenancy and we had all of the taps handles in our laundry broken. We just got them from bunnings but didn't know how to install. Thanks a looooot.

How do get the water pressure back?. My husband changed our old to new but the water pressure has changed and we have to open all the way for the water to come out

Thanks but I cant get the handles off, they are seized up bad. I don't know what to do.

hey mate, if you can pull the wall flange back and get the shifter onto the spindle that way or you can use a little bearing puller

@@jasmoore5716 unfortunately not, I will have to buy a tap handle remover.

@@lukeloop mate is there not expensive tapware just break the handles off so can gain access. Whole new wall assembly for shower or kitchen from tradelink is only 35 bucks there abouts

@@jasmoore5716 My problem is getting the thing off in the first place and then I should be good to go. Thanks again. I am a total novice so , what do you suggest in getting them off?

@@lukeloop mate use big set of multi grips, footprints or even a shifter on the handle. wind the handle all the way out then lever on it more with the tool. don't think its worth your money buying a tap puller if not in the trade. where are the taps located what room?
