Hi All,
Since yesterday I have a problem with my integrated Zanussi dishwasher. When I turn it on there is no water getting into the dishwasher. The machines keep going on and I am not able to turn it off too. So I had to switch off from the main.
Please can you let me know what is the problem...
Does anybody have any experience of Zamori acrylic shower trays and how they perform in use? - also how they compare to the (very heavy) stone resin trays.
Just mocking up what fittings to use for my shower valve to see that its not possible to fully fit an elbow to the hot inlet as it is fouled by the outlet boss.

Hi all,
I've got a new customer who wants a bathroom fitting. This would include a shower tray, and shower panel being situated partly across a window. It's far from ideal, but they've already bought the shower tray/panel/etc. It's a tiny bathroom, with no options for changing the layout...
HI everyone. As per the title, can anyone advise whether snap tile cutters work on porcelain tiles or do I need a wet saw? Thanks
Hi,
I had some taps changed last year and it turns out one had a very slow leak. It caused quite a lot of damage and the company that fitted them are trying to not accept liability.
The report from the engineer says ''IV to hot tap 3rd floor bathroom leaking, replaced olive, all dry and...
While changing the posi-temp cartridge in one of our Moen shower faucets, I noticed a tee between the control and the tub spout. Can't see where it goes but I'm curious. Can anyone suggest why this exists? Thanks in advance.

Hi, recently moved into new house, (the house is four years old), the bath has very low hot water temperature, I'm assuming its an anti scald device?
The hot water in the rest of the house is fine, eg kitchen sink, utility sink, bathroom wash hand basins, etc, they all get nice and hot, its just...
I took the toilet off. No clog. Put it back on and it's still has the issue of water rising before draining very slowly.
Took 2-3 flushes just to get rid of toilet paper.
Hi All,
I have this silly question. Water pressure for hot water is a bit low while cold water has a decent pressure.
Why do they put 22mm copper pipes for hot water? It seems detrimental for already low pressure.
Best regards
Recently had issue with our shower where no water was coming out. Changed shower head and hose which solved problem. Three weeks later exact same thing happened with new attachments. When we disconnect the shower head and hose water pours out at bottom of unit. Changed the hose and kept same...
We’ve got a bathroom in a 3 year old loft conversion. Pretty much the first time warmer weather rolled around a few months after it was done, I started to notice a bad smell in there – somewhat sewage-like, but different from ‘recently used toilet’ smell. This cycle has repeated each year: cold...
We have 2 Crosswater digital showers with a duo water control system. Last Autumn, one of them started cutting out at the start of a shower 2 or 3 times before finally working ok. It then seemed to correct itself over the winter. However this has now recommenced.
Also during the last 2 weeks...

Good morning! First post looking for advice on an issue I am having with a bath installation. Although I have installed many baths before, mainly using perimeter battens for support, I am attempting to install a fancy whirlpool/jacuzzi bath for my son. Plumbing and electrics are sorted but my...
So I purchased a second hand Neptune Jetted tub (that has not been used before) and I just want to confirm if this is one of those old style tubs that has a problem with all the water not draining out of the pipes or not. I believe the old style used flex pipes which sagged over time leading to...
Never fitted a corner sink and am unsure how the brackets should be used?
I'm putting in wood fixing behind plasterboard today so thought I would dry run fitting the sink.
Fitting the brackets as in the top pic leaves a gap all round the sink making it unstable.
The bottom method makes the sink...
