How to tighten my taps on the shower?

My taps in my shower are quite old in the unit I rent and they keep falling off. What is the tool I need to tighten the bolt thingy behind the middle bit of the tap?

Hello @Lynne11 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us.

 

In order to give our members a better idea of what type of taps you have; would it be possible for you to post a few photos of the handle and tap itself? Once our members see your tapware, we'll be able to make recommendations in regards to what tools to use and how to maintain your tapware handles.

 

If you need a hand posting photos, please let us know.

G'day @EricL  - I was wondering if @Lynne11 is referring to the Hot and Cold 'bolts'?

Hi @Noyade 

 

It might be, but just to be sure a picture would definitely help identify what kind of tap handle she has.
