Urgent broken tap

lky2k23

New house and the leaky tap is now a touch away from breaking. Trying to get a new one ordered and fitted tomorrow.

I can't find this rangemaster tap gap anywhere online. Does anyone know if a normal rangemaster tap (Range 130-230mm) could still work here? 

Ideally I'd replace without worktop work needed. I have until 4pm today to order next day delivery.

Thanks

No as the one fitted is 270mm between centres which is available elsewhere

But.... If the spacing at the top of the swan neck pipes are the same, it should be possible to do a straight swap. Telephone the supplier and get them to measure the spacing.

Failing that, I did find a bridge tap with a 270mm centres - https://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/chatsworth-gold-bridge-kitchen-lever-sink-mixer - It is going to be a bit of a crap shoot to get it for tomorrow regardless of where you buy it online.

My guess is it is a 200mm tap base and the smaller ones seem to generally be 180mm.

If it’s leaking from the spout, try fitting a new O ring, you can buy assortment from toolstation
