Mixer Tap Cartridge change advise. Discussion Thread
Hi
Our kitchen mixer tap is leaking around the bottom. Unsure where the leak is coming from but suspect/hope a new cartridge will fix it.
I am not a confident DIY guy, our mains pressure is really high and so plumbing makes me nervous 😂 but I feel like this is a job I should really be able to do for myself.
Am I ok to isolate the tap using the isolation valves, pictures attached? Or will I need to go through the pain of turning off the mains supply to the house?
Any other tips or advice for a total novice very much appreciated!
