Mixer Tap Replacement

by Roger Lindley

We have an Elddis Whirlwind 1996. The mono block lever mixer tap is broken and needs replacing. Can this be done by an old, rather heavy handed non diyer and can it be done without having to remove the sink?


Hi Roger,

Taps are not difficult to change, but can be a bit fiddly due to the lack of work space. You should not have to remove the sink to change your taps.

However, if you do not feel at all comfortable in tackling the job, you could always ask a friend who is competent at DIY or ask your local dealer to do it for you.

Taps are not cheap so it is always best to shop around. Browsing the internet to find a good deal is probably your best bet.
