What sizes of holesaw bits is a plumber most likely to use? e.g for stack/cistern?
 
The best thing to do is just buy a set with loads of cutters so you don't come unstuck. However, most of these sets are cheap and nasty and struggle going through mdf let alone tresper panels! I have one of these sets for thin materials but also have several higher quality ones for common sizes. These being 18, 25, 36, 44, 55 and 120. I have found Starret or Bosch to be the best. Of course we are only talking about holesaws here, masonary bits are a whole new world!
 
If its for cuttinig hard tiles then you need diamond drills we sell a lot of 110mm to get stacks though Porcelain tiles.

Cuts out the tile for the loo pan

Hi. I need a new toilet supply line but don’t know the size type of the fitting at the shut off valve. It is not 3/8 compression. It is a plastic nut about the same size as the one going into the cistern but has a different thread. Attached is a photo. Can you advise. Thanks.

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?
