How to remove taps that arent in use?

Currently doing laundry renovations and wanting to remove these taps to have a flat wall to install cupboards. I have managed to get the old sink out but wanted tips on how to remove the taps safely as they aren’t used anymore

Hello @aleisha159910 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us and thanks for sharing your question about your taps.

 

If you are no longer going to be using your taps, I suggest engaging the services of a registered plumber. They will properly seal and decommission the hot and cold tap in the wall. This will allow you to plaster right over that spot without having to worry that anything will be sticking out. Generally speaking, this is not a D.I.Y project that you can do on your own and must be done professionally.

 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

 

Eric
