Well first of many posts I think, I'm currently in the middle of doing a barn conversion for myself and am now starting the bathrooms, I have not yet got any sort of boiler etc so I'm hoping pressures won't be a problem.
I'm installing a wet room and wanting to fit a fancy shower, I have...
So I have a question here and I’m completely lost, I had a shower screen replaced as it shattered. The fitter came and fit the new wall profile to the wall then fitted the glass and then sealed it with silicone. When I first used it it started leaking from the bottom corner as shown in the...
The pipe is connecting to a 22mm tap. Why is the bottom part of the pipe wider? Can I still use a connection fitting for 22mm if I cut it at the bottom part?
Thanks🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hi,
My aunt asked me to have a look at her Geberit cistern which recently has suddenly stopped flushing on the short flush button. Long flush works normally as far as I can tell.
This is the flush mechanism (the label suggests PN 7074-98) , please excuse the mess:

Hi Guys,
Seeking advice. I have a Triton Combi HP (8000/9000) mixer shower, which is giving thermostatic and cross flow issues. I can confirm cold back flowing into hot, because the hot feed is ice cold. I have 3 of these identical showers, and the hots are much warmer than the colds on the...
I am fitting a thermostatic shower control. The flow knob fitting has a threaded section - 27mm OD - and it would be helpful to get a nut to go on it. Can anyone advise what I need and where to get it please?
Hi everyone,

Hi All,
I currently have an electric shower fitted which gets extremly hot and is forever burning out the fuse switch outside the bathroom which I reguarly need to replace. That combined with fact that the pressure is OK but as we would like a good powerful shower, we are considering a mixer...
I'm planning a wetroom in a very small space 1m x 2m (see attached). I want to maximise the space by having a cistern entirely in the stud wall including the waste . Two questions really
1. Is there a cavity wall cistern that fits completely inside a100mm cavity?
2. Is there such a thing as a...
Hello all. Five years ago a new (undersized) shower water pump was removed after a few attempts to try and get it to work and a larger one was successfully installed. I’ve kept the original pump and am hoping someone might advise if it might work after all this time or more importantly , is it...

Hello,
Our bathroom was installed 9 months ago by what we know were tradespeople who did not have the skill or experience to do so. Several revisits to fix leaks, poor siliconing and retile whole wall and reinstall shower tray were needed and in the end we just accepted it, even though it’s...
Hi
Just had a new bathroom installed with a toilet bowl that reaches the back wall. Its has a bottom entry cold feed to the cistern.
The fitter put an isolation valve on the pipe work for this :-(, the copper pipe comes up from a plastic pipe push fit. See photo.
I did a tissue paper test and...

I've just had my dripping thermostatic bath/shower mixer tap replaced, which was fab for the first few days. However, it is now taking ages for the hot water pump to kick in when using the bath or shower for the first time. This...
Hi all.
I need to improvise a flush pipe some how. Anyone managed to do this with waste pipe at all. Basically the cistern is on the back of a 2 inch stud wall of where the toilet will go. The pipe cannot go straight down due to a washing machine needing to fit into the space below the...

I wondered if anyone could help. We have just had some panels installed however there is quite a large gap left at the top where the panel joins the roof to be filled. Is this normal? I was under the impression they should really go to the roof with a little silicone?
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...
