Hello everyone, so I've decided to embark on my journey to becoming a qualified plumber. However, i am unsure if these training courses and providers are legit. My brother had an experience a few years ago that turned to be a scam. The company name is 24/7 Training UK. Weekly payments of 45 quid...
Hi folks, I’ve (until now, successfully...) done all the first fix plumbing on my newly configured bathroom in my flat only to notice that I’ve somehow put a tiny hole (maybe 3 or 4mm wide) in the flexible toilet waste pipe I installed. The floor is now tiled (underfloor heating, cement board...
Hi Everyone. I have a rather strange problem with my boiler. The heating and downstairs shower work fine but an upstairs bath is switching between hot and cold water randomly when hot water is on. The bath tap is a floor standing mixer tap. Water pressure on the system is fine. Any ideas please...
Just popped in to say "Hi". Found this forum when looking for a solution to our stiff shower bar tap. Have got some ideas which I'll try. Had a new cartridge a few months back but it's a stupid design of tap with very little to grip, and when wet it's almost impossible to move. Well done...

Hello, I would like to know going by my image supplied if that black valve is open or closed? I would also like to move it so I can dangle the power cable so it doesn't touch anywhere near that hot pipe.
Is it normally left in this position?

Hi all, Just purchased a new low profile 1400 x 900 shower tray but the waste hole is 160mm wide, never seen one that big before but are these available to buy. Think my tray is a cooke & lewis eclipse, see attached image.. Hope someone can advise me on where to purchase a tray waste. Thanks..
Hello all
I'm a householder in Dorset and need my post-meter natural gas supply pipe re-routing underground. Seems it's not a common job to carry out judging by the chin stroking of the Gas Safe plumbers I've asked.
Anyway, I can't post my question about it - I get the "Oops . . ." message box...
Hi All,
Thought I would drop a quick intro as I have just joined the forum ( after a few months lurking). I'm currently half way through my Gas course, having decided on a career change a bit later in life than most, and have been enjoying the challenge so far. I have been reading as much as I...
Hi - I'm new here though I have found many useful bits of advice in previous threads. I'm a keen (hopefully competent) DIYer and will generally give most jobs a go unless there's a safety consideration. I do like to get it right first time so prefer to research first, then act (or decide it's...
Hi all!
New to all this and currently training to do my ACS for a change of career! (Had to grow up and stop playing with motorbikes)
I found this website while looking for information to write up some method statements but while I'm here, if there are any Gas Safe engineers in or around north...

Hi folks, old and new.
I'm back on the tools, back on the forums. I'm working for myself since the start of this year and just know I will be needing your help and advice sooner or later, probably sooner. This place is too good of a resource to miss out on, especially flying solo, so here I am...

Hello,
Popping by to say hello. I'm slowly renovating a house, learning all sorts as I go. I did a short DIYers plumbing course and am ready to get stuck in with fitting new radiators in the first two rooms we're completing🤞
Cheers,
