Hi guys I'm after a new reseating tool as my cheapo one has finally packed in.

Any recommendations? I overhaul a fair amount of taps as part of a maintenance contract so don't mind spending a bit extra.
 
Please give us some information regarding your current re-seating tool.

Cost of original purchase.
Estimation of how many taps it has re-seated.
Length of time you have had your current re-seating tool.
Rough estimate of charges per tap re-seated.

When that information is supplied it may be possible to inform you whether or not it is economically viable to either purchase a 'cheapo' tap re-seating tool or upgrade to a 'top of the range re-seating tool'

Had this one best part of my working life, quick spray of oil every now and then & she's good to go from the old tool bag.
I think I paid more than 23 notes for it 30 year ago

My how times have changed on the tool front, especially when I look down my front to my tool. :wilted_rose:

Removing Pillar Tap and faucet
Hi all, I'm completely inexperienced at this, but my kitchen taps are ancient, and the water has started dripping. Rather than just change the washer, I want to change the entire thing to a mixer tap that supports two holes. I think I've figured most of it out except for the part where I...

Hi, as you can see pictured I have a stopcock without a packing gland. Over the past few days my cistern inlet was suffering from an airlock and it was hammering constantly after filling. I turned off this stopcock, drained all the pipes, turned the taps back off and then let the water back...
