Monobloc kitchen tap hole size

[Jake Morris]

Hopefully this question has a simple answer. I'm looking at monobloc taps for my new kitchen. I am having a granite worktop and they have asked me what size hole needs to be drilled to accommodate the pipes for the tap. Some of the taps I've seen online say 35mm hole size, while others don't specify any size at all. I haven't seen any other sizes specified. So my question is, is 35mm a standard size for the industry, and am I safe in telling my worktop maker to make the hole that size?

32 to 35mm is standard for kitchen taps - best to decide which tap your going for and get the spec to make sure.

get the tap in but a rough guide is around the 35mm mark but some specialist ones are bigger

Rather a blinding glimpse of the obvious, but why not choose a tap and ask the manu?

Barry is fine. How's your therapist?
