Title: Wall mounted 2 tap mixer
Post by: Jaip84 on September 05, 2018, 07:49:50 PM

Hi there,
we just bought a house and I am planning some renovations...
It's a 1970s house and it has wall mounted taps in the kitchen. I realize the pipes are in the wall but would it
be possible to change them to a bench mounted single lever tap instead?
Thanks for your help and info :)

You will need to get your plumber to alter the pipes to a lower position for access below where the tap will be located.
