Hello folks, I have registered here tonight to get some opinions on a plumbers work to valleys on front and rear of my new build. He has been back today to "fix it" but to me it still looks naff and I have insisted that a strong North Easterly gale in winter will cause a lot of water to run/jump...
Hi all, newbie (DIYer) here. Would like to hear from anyone who has had any problem after using the Aladdin easy fix isolator please.
I'm in a bit of a fix with a broken bathroom basin tap with no means of turning the cold feed off. The internal stopcock is stuck and I'm reluctant to force it as...
Was at service of Back boiler earlier and this is what found in loft.
Got the usual comment of "In 15 years no one has ever been up my loft to check anything".
What ye all think?
(why do these pics rotate when added)
Cannot find a single post about it on here. I know it's taken the place of the Junior, AND that it's the low end model; the guy at worcester said "don't bother with the CDi for a two bed semi, and the Si you don't need if you have the space for a full size boiler... go for the 30i) so seems...
Hi All,
Hopefully someone can help with a problem I've encountered....which is baffling me (and a few of the other plumbers I’ve asked)! A builder who I've done some work for asked me to have a look at his kitchen tap....because he said that when he runs the bath, which is upstairs, the...
Doing a CP12 property only 2 years old.
Flue on boiler terminates in a tunnel that cars use to access rear car park.
Now it's not enclosed however there are steels at either end which come down by a good 400-500mm making a bit of a hollw above the entrances at both ends of the tunnel.
The...
Finished a combi conversion today. Got paid up by the developer, going back to comission next week. The client left earlier in the day leaving us to lock up. Electrician came in and wired the boiler and left.
At end of the day i notice that electrician has for some bizzare reason drilled a...
Just wondering if many had installed the above pump.
Got a really poor incoming main at a shop I am working at and it needs improving and this looks the best option on paper right now.
Cheers
Hi guys, so were refurbing our customers bed room and on suite bathroom , they have mains cold at all cold outlets and gravity hot water fed by a fortic combination cylinder in the loft, they originally wanted a mains fed electric shower over there bath which would of been fine but our sparky is...
Did a landlord cert yesterday, hob would not spark on one ring. No other problems with it. No FSDs. My thought was ID as gas can be just left on, unignited.
But then I thought well what about older hobs / cookers that don't have piezo ignition or FSDs by design? And a spark unit is not a...
pictures shows a boiler situated in a recess left by a window which has been bricked up. the boiler is too large for the recess so the engineer has allowed the top overhang to come right over the boiler, he's then sealed the flue in
no way of telling if he's filled the hole all the way down the...
What's the opinion of the ideal esprit Eco combination boiler?
Looking inside it's almost identical to the logic parts, city plumbing are selling them with a std flue and magnaclean for £499+ for the 24 and £530+ for the 28. It also has a built in mech clock and a 3 year warranty.

Hi guys
Customer has stains appeared on his ceiling in the living room.
The shower tray above needs resealing. There is also a very thin crack in the tray, I'm not sure if this crack goes all the way through or it's just cracked on the top layer of acrylic. See picture. I suspect it's just...
Hi all,
i need to get a new torch for work and am looking at the Makita 18v jobby. I wouldn't normally spend £30 on a torch but figured as I already have makita power tools and batteries it will save me money in the long run on the battery's. It will be used for servicing and repair work...
Hi guys.....boiler engineer has recommended this particular model. Just looking for experienced feedback on this model from users/engineers etc.....any common problems/issue with this model?
thanks!
Hi Niel, *hope you had a good Christmas?
