Thanks for the tutorial bro. Just shot down to bunnings got the same mixer ($35) and mixer tap spanner set ($12) $45 all up, took me least then 20 mins. Plumber was going to charge me $300 😂. Your a legend
You’re welcome 👍
Same story but it took me about 1 hour. Thanks for the video, you're a legend!
What size was the spanner you used if u remember
@@DeliDeniz9119 Haron mixer tap spanner kit comes with 4 different sockets sizes 9,11,12 and 13mm.
Thanks Bill! I’m 6 months pregnant today and after the tap sitting in the cupboard for a few months, I decided I didn’t need hubby and I could do it on my own. With your video I crushed it 🙌
Finally a straight forward instructional video - no 3 part series, not overly long, just right to the point. Thanks very much!
Lol, you’re very welcome 👍
thank you for being strait to the point, not waffling on for 20 years about stuff. thank you sir! legendary video
Thank you so much, you saved my day. I tossed my old mixer with nothing wrong with it. I just didn't know how to remove it of the sink, so I bought a new one. Your video is to the point with no blah blah talk and bullshit. GOD bless you mate!
Glad I could help👍
Thanks again Bill you champion! Another simple job completed without a $250 extra expense
Your plumber must be expensive $250
@@fitzi200 pretty standard .. plumbers are always the most expensive tradesmen
was looking for this exact video and bought the tap without knowing its the one youre using.. awesome video mate
Legend! My son and I followed this exactly and its works like a charm !! Many many thanks, saved $$ and such a feeling of accomplishment. It was a great guide 😊
Cheers mate I just changed the tap in no time thanks to your video 👌
👍
Bloody legend. Saved me reading the instructions and stuffing it all up. Cheers
I’m from Brisbane and went straight to The hardware store to buy this exact Tap…very articulate, precise instructions.
It’s so much easier following your presentation rather than looking at a diagram. Thankyou Bill 👊👊👊👊
On my way to Bunnings tomorrow. Thanks champion.
I LOVE your straightforward videos!! I thought I would need a plumber to do this but I am going to do it!! I recently installed a toilet cistern and seat after watching your video of the same brand. I am so proud of myself.
You’re welcome 👍
Legend. Felt like an apprentice watching the boss on the tools. Thanks mate!
Thanks Bill. Great video. Simple and to the point. Just what I needed.
cheers bill, just changed mine. was quoted 400 so ended up doing it myself
Thank you for the video, unlocked my new talent today 😂😂😂.
nice one mate. I was going to attempt to change a cartridge, but the tap was looking a bit rough and the price difference between cartridge and new tap was like, 5 bucks. This is HEAPS easier than changing a cartridge too. Chur!
No problem 👍
Great vid. Simple, to the point, and exactly what I needed to see. Thanks Bill.
This is an awesome guide mate! Thanks!
You’re welcome 👍
Whenever anything goes wrong in the house it's straight to Bilshowto. Thanks mate 👍
Lol glad I can help👍👍👍
You make straight to the point videos. No waste of time . Thank you!
👍👍👍
Just changed my tap using your tutorial.
Greetings from New Zealand, I love your common sense approach and explanations as to why you must do things a certain way. I notice that the screw fittings for some tap mixers have changed, instead of those pesky thin screw fittings, that were always so difficult to reach, many taps now have a bulkier screw fitting, which makes it easy to tighten the tap body to the bench with your hand.
Bill you are honestly a dead set legend! Thanks a lot for saving me the big bucks! Cheers mate!
So helpful. I’m replacing my mixer tonight and after watching this, I’m really confident I won’t mess it up and need to call my dad. Thank you!!!!
same here!
I was going to get someone else to replace the tap, but after watching this video I will give a try myself. Thanks!
This video has been a massive help. Thank you bro! Just saved $150 by not replacing the whole thing. Keep it up! 🙏🏼
You’re welcome 👍
Thank you Bill
A great help. Three things made it much simpler for me. I removed the horizontal drainpipe to give me more room to move. Then assembled the bolt and flat washer and plate above the sink with enough slack to pass it though the hole with a bit of jiggling. This saved trying to assemble it in the dark underneath. I bought a tube spanner kit ($12). The 11mm tube slotted into the 14mm tube giving me a long extension. Tightening was a breeze. Twenty minutes from beginning to end. Thanks.
👍👍👍
Thanks Bill 👍🏻
I can’t remember the last time something was explained so easily and it registered in my head
Excellent video, just changed out my leaking old tap with a new mixer with spray head.
Thanks very much for the tutorial you help me a lot. Now I can reinstall the tap correctly ❤🙏
Very well explained

Mate you really are a legend I fitted the toilet cistern no problem now I'm going to do the kitchen mixer tap you make it all so easy thanks heaps

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Last time I got a plumber to do this job it cost me nearly $300 this time I’m doing it myself!
Great video and straight to the point, no wasting time! I'm confident to have a go at it now!
Thanks Bill. Good, simple instructions and great delivery !
Cheers for the help just installed the exact same mixer in the kitchen. for some reason I just was not thinking to use a tube spanner now I own a set as I am sure this wont be the last time I do this. Thank you very much for the video.
Thanks, Bill. Very clear and very helpful.
Thanks Again a very simple way to install it.
You’re very welcome 👍
Thanks Bill, great video, simple and straight to the point. Just bought one from Bunnings and very confident fitting it will be a breeze!
Bill your video was easy to follow, did my kitchen sink mixer. 30 minute job was super easy. Thanks for uploading the video. 👍
You’re welcome 👍
This is the correct tone for a DIY with no real skill. Nice pacing, just perfect!
JUST what I was looking for!!! My exact tap and all - except the only part we need to replace is the mounting kit (flenge?) at 3:27 . The old one rusted, fell off and left the tap looking how yours did at the start of the video.
Thankyou!
Thanks mate, appreciate the simplicity of your videos. You've saved me more than once! Legend
You’re very welcome 👍
Thanks for another great video Bill. Much appreciated.

Thanks Bill, i full played your videos while changing the shower heads, taps and silicone in the kitchen Appreciate you man✊🏽✊🏽
You’re very welcome 👍
Hey top simple great instructions, especially the tip on ,using those tube scanners! I was doing my head in because of tight access , tightening. Thanks mate, you’ve made my job easier.
100% .. if I didn't watch the video before I started, I wouldn't have known about the tube spanners and it would have meant another 100km round trip into town!
Thanks Bill, this was a great help and it was the same model as my old tap :)
thanks Bill, mine's a bit wobbly but I can tighten it now!
Thanks mate, recon I can do that myself after watching that, might just need to buy a tube spanner.
Thanks Bill. Keep up the great work.👌✅😇
Fantastic video; you are a natural! I know how to replace my mixer tap now. No better praise. ❤

Great stuff Bill. Keep the vids coming. Thanks brother!
Awesome great instructions I’m going to go try and change mine now 😃
Thanks Bill I’m learning the little tricks from you n
Thanks mate. Very helpful.
That was such a great simple demo. Thank you. I’m off to do mine now.
Done!
Thanks Bill! I made a lil mess but got there in the end! Aha thanks
Ps. Don’t forget to turn off the mains water supply and get tons of rags to catch leaks
Thanks for sharing
G'day Bill. After a stalled start, I just installed a mixer tap, where there was previously a hot and cold tap in my kitchen sink. The project stalled when I struggled to remove the existing hardware - the flexi hoses went to the individual hot and cold taps, with a "U" shaped copper pipe then going to the spout. I couldn't get enough purchase on end of the pipe to unscrew it from the spout, so I had to cut the copper pipe, and was then able to use a plumber's spanner to undo it. Haven't removed the old hot and cold taps from the sink yet, but at least I have a new mixer that reaches the basins really well.
Thanks for a clear tute! You are a lifesaver! We are subscribed!👋🏻
Thanks Bill! I'm not at all technically inclined, and live in a place where it's hard to get tradesmen to come out. You're a legend 🙏
Finally a video straight to the point, I think I can do this😁
Thanks Bill, no bla bla bla , see a picture of my dog rubbish. Just a very straightforward, easy to follow instruction.
He aired you because you’re cringe
Just discovered your channel, this is great. I love learning how to do these things myself!

Nicely explained, thank you.
Again top stuff mate! Your the UA-cam dad.

Another good video 👍👍👍thanks BILL
You’re welcome 👍👍
Mixer tap saver. Your vid definitely helped me. Thanks.
You’re welcome 👍
Thank you kindly!
god bless you bill
👍👍
Thanks for this!
Great video, thanks, mate. But I dont recommend that brand of mixer. The one I replaced split. And having gone to the reviews on bunnings, it didn't take long to find multiple complaints of the same nature. I spent 70 bucks on my new mixer from a plumbing shop and used a normal spanner. Overall, the more expensive mixer was noticeabley beter built, heavier, and had more pressure.
Cheers
Thanks Bill, I changed my kitchen tap today. Easier than making a cake.
There are 2 tips I would like to share. 1. Please check the size of your old tap before going to upgrade fancy one. I was going to fit a retractable head but I found the original hole is only 20mm. So after visiting Bunning Wearhouse third time, back to basic version$35.97.
2. Please turn on all your house taps on to let the extra water out before you unscrew the hot and cold pipe off if you do not have a water turn off buttons under you sink. Otherwise, the excess water will leaking your kitchen pretty bad.
I saved $500 which was charged by a plumber 10 years ago. He told me the tap cost $250.
Good points, I just ask that question, if the base fittings etc on the taps are a standard size re the hole, I’ll be taking my old tap in just to make sure 👍
Cheers bill
Thanks again Bill. Hope you are well mate.
You’re welcome. All good on my end, hope everyone else is doing fine 👍👍
good video mate .Great effort .Funnily enough my mothers mixer tap is pissing water from the base and somewhere inbetween but its like 15 years old now ,i might get a new one at Bunnings for her tomorrow and change it
It’s really easy and cheap to do 👍👍
Thanks so much. U have given me the confidence to attempt this tomorrow! 🙏😊
I’m glad I could help 👍👍
@@billshowto job done!!! 🙏💕
Cheers mate - perfect 👍
Thanks Bill, you're a champion - I think I might even be able to do this 🙂
You’re welcome 👍
@@billshowto - and yes, I was able to change the tap this morning - I'm really not a handy man, so I appreciate your help so much 🙂
