I'm having to fit a new concealed mixer valve (6 year old Bristan cartridge no longer available) but the new ones typically have a 160 -185 mm circular wall plate that won't cover the 185 x 100 mm hole for the old valve. Where can I get a blank chrome wall plate, about 220 mm square to cover the old hole?
 
A local metal fabrication place should be able to make something up and chrome it for you, I had to do this after a customer lost one of his on a new build!
 
I had one made to cover a whacking great hole. Turned out well image.jpg

How to identify dripping tap.
Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
