Looking for advice please, our plumber has left us in it and I think I may know why.

So they where supposed to be fitting a cloakroom sink putting the pipe work in the wall then fitting these black shut off valves and black trap but can’t see how this is possible the way the work has been carried out, he said the compression valves are just temporary but they are sticking out if the wall and the pipe work for the trap doesn’t fit ? Really grateful if someone can help and explain if there is any logic in the work that has been done as I now need to try and get it finished

Thanks

Hi everyone, I've joined the forum today as I've found myself going round in circles with what I think might be a pretty simple problem, hoping someone can help. Our dishwasher is leaking and the manual says this can be fixed by cleaning the water inlet filter. To do this, we need to close the...

Hello guys, a couple of months back I installed a new shower and sink into a part of the house that hadn't previously been plumbed in. This forced me to run some pipes outside the walls, so I put in stopcocks at the point where the new pipework joins the old Just In Case. I used copper pipe and...
