Ive got a tap in my bathroom that is from the 80's or so and has developed a leak. Normally I'd just change the washer but after taking the tap top off (flippin hard job as it was) and the whole tap is in one piece.
I forgot to take a photo to show you what I mean but I figured any plumbers would know the sort of thing Im talking about.

Onto my question, I need to replace it but the taps are fugly too, is it easy enough to get replacements for the whole set?

Let me know if you want a photo to see what I mean.
Cheers!

You can get replacements for anything, if its a basin its ususlly a pain in the neck to change them.
Probably the thing i hate doing the most, basin sets and rusty old pillar cocks........

you may be able to just change the tap mechanisn without changing the body of the tap.

I would replace the tap ware with a good australian brand. How every don't get your self into to much trouble call one of the plumbing firms.
