Hi guys, I've had a search and couldn't find anything related.
Installing a wall mounted toilet, unfortunately didn't know this when I put the soil pipe in position. The supplied fitting is now approximately 130mm offset from the vertical connection. Any ideas? (amateur obviously!) Wondered...
Hello,
I have an alcove shower with a wall to wall measurement of 952mm.
I need a bifold door and am looking at something contemporary, 8mm glass with black trim- Issue is that the lower spec limit of the door is 960mm. It seems to be the same with all (Yes I can get a 1000 bifold door in...
This is from around 2010. It's got a cross-hatched border with a floral motif. Can anyone identify it pls? Need to replace some of the the pivot-related parts...
Cheers.
Hey everyone,
I have a Duravit vanity unit and was recommended to buy the Duravit space saving waste: 005076
But im unsure how this connects to the waste pipe in the wall. The plumber has fitted a standard waste, but he had to cut a hole at the back of the vanity. There is another to install...
Out of curiosity folks.
What are some solutions to fitting these panels when the floor is way out? Obviously if it’s all level there’s no issue but other than getting a chippy in 😳, what’s best?
Cheers
Wanted a new shower pump equivalant to a Branston Varispeed 50
After 12 years my shower pump has stopped working and it looks as though this type of pump is not made now. These are the details on the pump

Hi
I have a 22mm hot and cold water supply to new bath. The pipes finish with compression valves. I need a 500 mm tap connector hose to connect with half inch thread on the new bath tap. All the connectors at the main plumb merchants are 22mm x 3/4 inch. No one seems able to answer question...
Hi All
I had an unvented cylinder fitted about 6 years ago. It only supplies hot water to my shower. I was hoping for a much better flow rate from the shower but it seemed no different from the original combi boiler hot feed. There is (unusually) a lever that lets me select the combi or the...
I recently bought a set of ARCORA bathroom faucets. I have just installed and used them, and they feel pretty good. I would like to ask if any netizens have bought this brand at your home? ARCORA 3 Hole 8 Inch Brushed Nickel Widespread Bathroom Faucet With Drain Assembly | ARCORA FAUCETS -...
Hi, I have a bath tub in my apartment that is draining very slowly.
It does finally drain but only after about 12-15+ minutes.
After trying all the old remedies (fluids, powders, zip-it) I am now thinking about manually snaking the drain pipe.... But a Handyman guy who lives at my apartment...
Hi
Anyone seen this sort of setup before?
Not sure if it will be like a clay connector but cemented up ?
Never come across it before
Any advice be appreciated before I chip away at it.
I removed an old shower hose, which was installed by previous home owner at least 12 years ago. Upon removal, the connection is like nothing I have ever seen and I am unable to find any replacement hose of similar connector type. btw: When I removed the hose , there was no loose rubber washer...
Hi all, I have a combi boiler for hot water and heating but have 2 showers in the house. Obviously low water pressure if both showers are used at same time. I'm wondering if I could install a water tank to gravity feed one of the showers, with new electrric shower and if so how to stop the water...
Hello, I'm reworking our ensuite which is next door to the main bathroom.
I want to connect the new toilet into the existing soil pipe which runs directly under it.
See the picture below for the layout.
Can I simply put a strap boss on to the existing soil pipe or is there anything I should...
My existing en-suite layout is awful. Tiny cubicle and very cramped. I had thought of loosing the large basin, for a corner basin or one in a toilet tank design to create more space.
Loosing the 740x740 cubicle for either a large open plan tray and a glass side panel.
The prices for a tray...
Hi, I have a stopcock in my closet at my flat, but despite me turning it clockwise all the way, this doesn't seem to be stopping the flow of water.
Is there anyway I can check if that truly is the stopcock and if not, is there a way I can find the actual one?
I just want to stop the water flow...
Hi all. My hot supply for my shower is on the left and my cold feed is on the right. My understanding is that this is correct and this is also stated in the user manu.al.
However when I turn my mixer clockwise the water is turning cold when it should be hot. When I turn it anticlockwise the...
Hi folks
Do you guys fit your own timber panels or get a chippy in?
A lad I know has fitted one of the mdf panels with the 100mm skirting trim using 2 battens either end of the bath. Customer is refusing to pay as it bows slightly when touched.
Do you guys build a frame if you do it...
Hello,
I fitted a Cooke and Lewis shower cubicle about 5-6 years ago. The weight of the glass shower door has put large impressions of the roller wheels in the plastic track the rollers run on. Got worse over the years and now it is quite difficult to open and close the shower door. I took some...
I have ceramic basin (half sphere bowl!) to fit onto composite marble top ( 15mm thick), I am wondering if the weight of basin ( about 6/7kg!) will create point load, and potential lead to cracking. Should the worktop have supporting struts to better support basin and help prevent failure??
