I tried to fix a tap in the ensuite and apparently while trying to unscrew the topmost part of it I have damaged the pipe connection underneath as I have turned the tap a bit.
The tap was rusted through so I had to apply extra force.
Now, the pipe connection is leaking (see a red arrow on the photo below).
The tap is not an issue any more as I do mind replacing the rusted tap with a new one.
But to replace the tap and the pipe underneath I need to unscrew three connections - one at each tap, and one at the faucet (see green arrows on the photo below).
Then I will need to get a new tap, a new prefabricated T-shaped pipe with threaded connectors, and get it installed.
I do not see any reason why I cannot do it by myself.
The only problem is that it does not look like I have enough room to use plumbers wrenches (see the photo) or spanners.
The space is so confined that I hardly can reach the nuts.
Is it possible that to get access to the connectors I need to lift the washbasin from the vanity ?
Thank you.
