Shower head replacement

Hi All

As you can see from the pic the shower head has broken.

I think I can find a replacement online, but just wondering if the pipe/nut size that connects it to the main part of the tap are all the same size, or do I need to measure it in a particular way ?

Do I just used some pliers and a rag to protect the surface finish , when installing ?

Thanks

They're a standard size.

You should be able to buy a new head without the hose. If you do get one with a hose you can still use the existing one.

The head into the hose only needs to be hand tight, to tools required (although getting the broken end out might need something).

Thank you - very good idea, about just replacing the head !
