I have these taps. The knobs just pull off

Are you looking to change the whole tap thing, or just the washers inside ?

if its the latter, Those knobs can be well stuck. just don't pull the sink off the wall

Hi Homer911 and Whizbang, thanks for the reply, i just want to change the washer, how can i get the knobs off then? just pull it? they are quite stick and stubborn, i tried and could not get it off.

I've just checked my taps again - the knobs definitely pull straight off. Its just a plastic toothed connection, so if it hasn't been off in a while, it could well be stiff. Underneath is a screw holding the rest of the fitting together.

If you can get some WD40 in under it, it would probably help. Just ease it off gently

Hi Homer, thank you very much for the help, got it off!!
