Problem seating a monobloc tap in a bathroom basin
Seasons greetings.
I'm putting in a new bathroom (ceramic) basin with a monobloc tap. The tap has a flange with O-ring at the bottom, to form a seal with the basin. Unfortunately the hole in the basin has a curved edge which prevents the tap from seating properly (i.e. the top of the hole is more funnel-shaped, than a cylinder). Any suggestions on how to get round this gratefully received. Cheers, Steve |
