Mend Remove Replace Washer

Cannot remove bath tap to replace washer?

My bath taps are chrome with no obvious cap on the top or retaining screws, and probably over 20 years old. I called a plumber to fix the leak and despite his best efforts he was unable to dismantle the tap and so suugested cutting the pipes and replacing the taps. I dont mind replacing the taps but any suggestions on how to remove/unseize or prise them off?

I just have had the same problem, when i prized of the red coloured insert in the tap head & i was surprised to find no screw was no screw but there appeared to be a clip of some sort that lay on the top of the spindle
I simply pulled to the head upwards to remove it
mind you it took a wee bit of tugging to get it moving
changed the washer replaced the head job done
