Greetings,
I recently purchased an older home, and I'm trying to replace the backyard hose bibb. However, it appears that I can't get to the water pipe (and the base of the existing hose bibb) without first removing the mounting block. Is there an easy way to DIY? I figure I just need to expose the water pipe, and use two channel locks to remove the bibb and replace. For reference, I looked at this thread: Remove a vinyl mounting block cover?
Would a zipper tool be necessary to get at the mounting block?
Any suggestions would be appreciated -- thank you for your time.
