    Soldering mat??????????

    I use offcuts of 6mm No More Ply and give them a spray with water before putting behind the joint. Nice and rigid and seem to hold up pretty well.

    Old stopcock replacement

    Cheers Rob, that will be plan B. I don't want a gusher though!

    Old stopcock replacement

    Thanks Best, that sounds like the course of action I'll be taking, the external stopcock is just outside the house. I didn't fancy messing with the lead joint especially with it being so close to ground level. Thanks everyone else.

    Old stopcock replacement

    Hello everyone. I've got to replace this stopcock as it's leaking and almost seized up. Am I likely to encounter any problems removing it and will a standard 15mm stopcock be ok as a replacement? The old lead pipe is just visible under the concrete. Thank you.
