Hi Guys

Can someone give me a step by step guide of fitting a garden tap

cheers
 
You can purchase complete kit and fitting instructions from large diy stores
and while you are there you can get a water but with water down pipe connection,not very expensive,waters better for watering plants in dry weather and eco friendly

list taken from article

You will need:
  • A small hacksaw
  • PTFE tape
  • Adjustable spanners
  • Jointing compound
  • A heavy-duty power drill
  • An external bib tap
  • A 20mm masonry bit at least 150mm long
  • 15mm wall plate elbow
  • A 6mm masonry bit about 360mm long
  • A 15mm isolation or gate valve
  • A screwdriver
  • A 15mm equal tee fitting
  • A couple of spring clip clothes pegs
  • 2 x 15mm 90 degree elbows
  • 15mm copper piping
  • Pencil and measuring tape

Is the small half round file to help you escape from prison when you get arrested for fitting tap over drain 😀
