Replace tap washer?
I am trying to replace the washer in a shrouded-head tap in my daughter's flat. It has been leaking for several months, and she has been turning it off very tightly. I have unscrewed the headgear, but it will not come out of the body, it feels as though the washer has expanded and is sticking. Will I cause any damage by forcing the headgear out?
