please
Please is a word used in the English language to indicate politeness and respect while making a request. Derived from shortening the phrase "if you please" or "if it please(s) you", the term has taken on substantial nuance based on its intonation and the relationship between the persons between whom it is used. In much of the Western world, use of the word is considered proper etiquette, and parents and authority figures often imprint upon children the importance of saying "please" when asking for something from an early age, leading to the description of the term as "the magic word".
Hi
Please can some advise how I remove the mixer tap above these images. This retaining bracket is fixed on well and I don’t think there will be room for it to spin around. The hot water flexi seems to have come loose from the tap as it is leaking quite heavily. Unless something has failed...
Hi, I’m hoping someone can help – I need a bit of advice / help as I'm not sure if the recent cold spell is too much for the UFH in the main living space (it's a barn conversion so 25ft high vaulted area) and I've checked all I can think of. It's 15 degrees despite all looking to be OK to me...
Hi all. I hope you’re well!
I’m having issues with my Flomasta toilet in my main bathroom. This was only installed a couple of years ago after moving in where limescale wreaked havoc with the previous system.

We have a Glowworm BBU56F (back boiler). Its well-maintained/serviced and since we’ve been in the property (15 years) only the Thermocouple was replaced in July of this year, otherwise has been running fine.
We’ve not had heating/hot water for a month now, and with 2 young kids/unwell missus...
I am looking for these exact parts to replace my bathroom sink strainer and stopper. I’ve searched every site I can find, but no luck. Does anyone recognize these or where I might be able to buy them?
A little more info:
This sink has a pullout drawer right below, so the waste line is different...
I’d be grateful for your thoughts please...

I am trying to replace the flow cartridge in the bathroom tap. I have turned off the water and removed the tap cover but cannot get the screw to turn. The screw looks to be some variation on a philips screw, i have tried different screw drivers but to no avail I have attached a picture, any...
Hello everyone!
I'm finally getting to do my own bathroom renovation (spend most of my time doing everyone else's). The bathroom is on the ground floor and the hot water cylinder is at the other side of the house on the first floor. The house isn't huge but I'm sick of running the hot tap and...
Hi all,
I'm hoping you might be able to guide me with this.
Everytime the hot water turns on we hear a loud bang from the airing cupboard, which I believe is the pump.
On top of that our boiler, it's an old Ideal Classic from 2006 I believe, gets incredibly hot on the top half. To the point...

I have emptied the system due to leaks popping up all over the place, i have elbows, Tee's...
