Hi
I'm just a DIY'er popping over from the tiler forum.
I've got problem trying to fit a basin mixer monoblock type tap. The tap is connected by using 2 x 10mm flexible tap tails. The problem I have is that the tails go right into the body of the tap so I'm finding it impossible to tighten the hex part of the tail because I cannot get a spanner/wrench on it!
I've tightened the tails as much as possible by hand but both tails are leaking from the rubber washer at the top of the tail.
Has anyone got any idea how I can remedy this problem? It's getting to the stage where I may have to take the tap back and look for something else with an easier connection, which would be a shame as I like the tap.
Any ideas appreciated
