  • Useful & effective tool. Cheaper than getting a Plumber . . . I'm pleased anyway

    Bit expensive for one tap, until you consider paying for a Plumber or removing the taps for replacement ( or both ). The only issue is the question as to whether it will work or on your tap or not . . . I read all the blurb and bought a ring spanner to try - but couldn't shift it with just the spanner whilst the tap was attached to the sink, and it would have been be a major effort to swap the taps without moving the sink out . . . so I punted in in the end. I'm in a hard water area so everything gets embedded in stone so I was expecting to need heat application and all sorts of fuss . . . but moved it after winding on a bit of pressure and some bumping. I waited a bit for a used one to arrive on ebay - but there was only one along that I saw in a couple of years and it went for not much less then the new one, so I reckon I can sell it on when I've checked the friends and relatives to see if anyone else has a stuck tap gland ( as Wilko call them ) . . . so in the end all's well and it moved with out too much trouble - I didn't even need heat. I caught an ebay 10% off £20+ offer so quite happy in the end. I'm glad to see we still make something in Britain !!

  • Saves time and frustration!!

    This tool is extremely useful! It removed my stubborn bath tap so easily. It did it so easily, at first I didn't think it was doing anything, but I could see the tool slowly turning the tap valve nut and within a couple of minutes it was released. Saves you having your tap turning while using normal wrench and damaging your pipes. I am very impressed. It stores away nice and easily too. Easy to follow instructions for even complete novices!

  • Brilliant must have tool

    Just used it for the first time today on a particularly stubborn gland, brilliant! I had tried stilsons on spout protected by a piece of towel to no avail, but this tool made it so easy, should have bought one years ago!

  • Absolutely brilliant but maybe a bit pricey

    Will remove stuck tap valves with ease. Don’t listen to some reviewers saying how it’s somehow flimsy and will bend....it won’t and you’d have to be putting immense pressure at an angle for this to happen. It’s designed for such an eventuality.... look at the arm, it contains a hole, this is to insert a bolt to attach to if a lower position is needed. The metal is very strong, this will stand up to a lot of pressure. Only criticism, it is a little pricey but we all can guess why this is.... people would only ever need one and it’s the way the manufacturer can get profit back

  • Must have tool for any DIYist or plumber

    Only 2 years old since installation, my brand new taps had their spindles over-tightened when supplied new and I could not loosen them using the normal spanner method, my Compact Tapsplitter had them loosened within seconds, I do not recommend you use Tapsplitter to tighten them afterwards (just give them a nip with a spanner). A must-have tool for any DIYist, handyman or plumber, be sure to watch the Youtube videos first before first use.

  • Stubborn job made very easy

    This tapsplitter did exactly as advertised and I was able to change the ceramic disc cartridge on our hot tap in minutes after struggling using other methods without any success and at £29 saved us a lot of money had we called in a plumber I thoughly recommend this tool

  • Well stuck tap headgear

    One of my bath taps was turning itself on due to the rubber seal being perished. I tried everything to undo the tap top but it would not budge and pipework was being twisted. As it was not possible to get access to undo the pipework from the tap it would have resulted in the bath having to be removed but as the bath is embedded into the wall this would have cost me Thousands of pounds for a new bathroom suite and tiling. This tool did the job no problem. Brilliant bit of engineering.

  • Tap washer removal tool

    What an amazing tool. With absolutely no effort I was able to remove the tap head and get to to washers inside. After struggling with several different tools. This piece of kit is nothing short of spectacular. No more cut hands from slipping tools or squashed fingers. Best plumbing tool I've bought.

  • "Cracked it"

    Works well. Didn't think it would, kept turning the nut, didn't realise it, but it had it cracked and I was able to take head off with my fingers. It wouldn't budge before using tool. So simple, but very effective. Recommended. 5 stars ✨

    Very clever device, tried many spanners wrenches to free tap valve from tap body. Taps have been in place for 40years etc:. sprayed with easing oil for a few days , Then this little GEM worked a treat. with No effort.---- bit pricey but now have it in my tool kit .for future awkward taps ?? .
