How can I remove side-on kitchen mixer tap heads?

around the blue ring on the cold tap insert a thin screwdriver or a pointed tool and the silver end cap will pop of and u will see a screw remove screw u will be able to remove the cover head then u need a spanner to open the head unscrew the head and it just comes out these are ceramic head valve u may struggle to find a replacement best to call manufacturers who will send the valve out in the post. when looking for the valve its the splines at the top which the cover fits to must be the same otherwise the cover will not fit on to the new valve
