    Tap replacement in an old house (non mixer taps). We're talking spindles and handles, basic work. I'm out of town. Handyman or plumber?

    DIY on your return if it can hold.

    Technically I would say a plumber. I reckon $200 with average taps. A couple years ago I did my kitchen with ceramic taps. Cost $44 from Bunnings. Still going strong. No drip. Just a little noisey.


    Yep , my DIY pride and joy.

    Simple task
    Any handyman with any proven history can do !
    Even a basic practical individual could do this :p
    Anyone could buy a seating kit and some seating washers from Bunnings.....
    Is there a 6 pack in it ??? :D
    Pay a handyman, I should work out less than the plumbers call out fee !
