Two years ago I completely replaced my son's bathroom. They chose a double-ended bath with taps in the middle and at the wall side of the bath.
Realising how difficult it would be to tighten up the tap nuts once the bath was in situ - I made sure that the nuts were as tight as possible before installing the bath. Unfortunately, the nuts were nylon and just not possible to get as tight as metal nuts.
The inevitable has now happened, and one of the taps has worked loose, and the whole tap body turns with the handle.
I have removed the bath side panel and, using an adjustable 'spring loaded' tap wrench, can just about reach the tap nut by lying on my back and reaching underneath the bath - but I just cannot get it to turn. It's very difficult to see what I'm doing, of course, - although using a small mirror leaning at an angle against the wall beneath the bath, enables me to get a view up to the tap nuts.
I'm now at a loss as to how to resolve the problem. I've even thought of trying to get some type of glue underneath the base of the tap but there is a rubber washer there that would probably fox that idea - and also there will be soap residue beneath the taps that would probably prevent any glue from adhering effectively.
If my son and his wife had taken my advice and chosen a 'one piece' bath tap unit, this problem would not have arisen - but they wanted 'antique' style separate taps...
So, anyone got any ideas on how to sort this problem (without taking the bath out!!)?
