Hi all. I hope you are all keeping well and away from covid 19. My wife had a temp and a cough last week and so she has self isolated. The new government guidelines are saying as of today that if anyone in your household has had a cough or temp then the whole occupants of the house need to...

I bought these 'shower taps' as part of my bathroom upgrade, but my plumber ended up using a different set. I bought them in a showroom closing down sale so can't take them back, but they were quite upmarket. I was going to sell them on eBay but wasn't sure what to call them. 'Shower taps'...

I've got to fit one of these on clients instructions. He's German and apparently thats how they do it over there but I think its gonna cause problems due to lack of rigidity and stability once the tiles are on. Anyone had any experience with these?

I had to replace a perished washer in my toilet cistern and I had to remove the cistern from the toilet itself. In the process of detaching the water pipe I had to unscrew a white plastic cowling / covering and it has slid down the pipe and now I can't move it back upwards to re-secure(!). I...

Hi Guys, called out to a Biasi M90 with no DHW or CH. ignition pcb was faulty but since realised that there is no live to that board. I have a live feed into the main board and fuse is good. Do we reckon it’s the main pcb that’s at fault?

Just had right mission trying to join on what I think must have been 15mm copper going into a imperial sized compression tee. On the pipe there was an olive that was compressed flat onto the pipe on the end that went into the fitting and raised and flat ended on the other side to seal against...

Hi, I have purchased a wall hung toilet to go onto a concealed cistern and I have been told to replace these (please see pictures) as the threads have gone. Could you please tell me what these are called so that I can order some replacements. Many thanks.

Firstly, this is not a job and I will not be working. We recently had our 3-port or mid-position replaced with zone valves, couldn't really see what it was that well due to its installation. I had looked at it in wonder for some time as what I thought was flow went into the hot water or...

I replaced a faulty grundfos pump with a new grundfos central heating pump, and all seems to be ok, in terms of function etc. however, one issue i have is that when hot water is called for (alone) then their is a screaching noise coming from pump/3 way/or other which lasts for around a few...

Hi Again, I'm still looking at different fittings. Can anyone tell me what the UK version of this is called...

If this is in the wrong place I apologise, Had a hob fitted by a Gas safe fitter 2 months ago, I ran most of the pipe work as I totally overhauled the kitchen, he connected the hob and supply end. He done a tightness test and the work was fine, I was very happy with his work until, I was putting...

Some people need help

:( So, the lad I've got through his NVQ 2 and has had his own van for a year or so now. Got back from my electrical assessment today and walked into the bathroom I had left him on. He's just finished adjusting radiator pipework for first fix. Pipes coming out of the wall are in chromed...
