    Oversize kitchen sink top/drainer buying one.

    See if you can get a measurement on the cut out underneath and fingers crossed your current sink just has a bigger flange Alternatively if you have space to open the hole up further and a big base unit you could stick a double in...

    What is the connector called to attach this p-trap to an equal tee?

    yes it will fit. Screwfix have the wrong product codes on their website though make sure you don't end up with the 40mm version

    What is the connector called to attach this p-trap to an equal tee?

    what you're after to go on the top of the trap is a polypipe ws47w Choice is yours on how you do it but you're looking at reddit which is mostly used by Americans who are advising you on American plumbing practices. We don't worry so much about venting and inspection hatches for basin wastes...

    What is the connector called to attach this p-trap to an equal tee?

    The bit you're trying to attach something to fits to the basin. You then come out the horizontal section with a bit of 32mm pipe. Do the same for the other side and then using some fittings get them to meet into the tee ensuring that the swept tee faces the right way. You've chosen an anti vac...

    Compression fitting loose on the pipe

    It's likely 3/4" in pipe not 22mm. You likely need a 3/4" olive instead of the one the fitting comes with

    Waste pipes for bathrooms and kitchens

    Is there a really good reason you're not using standard off the shelf plumbing waste pipe.

    installing a wet ufh system from a 15mm CH leg

    Personally at that size UFH I would want a pump on it and because its screeded its own time and temp control so go down the route of a small manifold. This will mean it needs to be tee'd into the boiler flow and not the heating flow. Basically you need a pipe back to your airing cupboard or...

    Repacking underground stopcock gland.

    Remove the stopcock and put a new piece of pipe in joined to the old pipe with the joiner somewhere that's not under the new patio. Then fit isolation to the supply as it exits the ground. Of if you can replace the whole lot back to where it is supplied from that would be even better, no joins...

    Dishwasher making droning noise continuously

    Modern plumbers don't typically get involved in appliance repairs. Its a specialist subject. You may be better off asking else where. At 8 years old I would replace.

    Can we hide the grout line?

    Why does it look like the shower is up the wrong end of the bath... Screen looks fine. That detail is extremely common

    How to fit McAlpine ARB-1 anti rodent valve?

    Alternatively the polypipe version sk40. I stopped using mcalpine for a lot of my pan connectors when they stopped doing removable rubbers

    How to fit McAlpine ARB-1 anti rodent valve?

    What pan connector are you using and I'll see if I can find you a brand with a removable rubber. Fitted one beggining of this year and think I had to do the same.

    Compatible flush plates with Geberit UP720 (8cm)

    Pretty sure all sigma plates will fit all sigma cisterns otherwise they would be a different name. The numbers I presume refer to cistern depth I had issues with the colouring on some sigma plates a few weeks ago. I sent an email to [email protected] explaining what I needed and asked...

    No power to Manifold

    Have you checked you have 240v going into and out of the room stats? They might be switching via low voltage battery or the relays aren’t working. You need to trace the electricity step by step forward or backwards in the switching order
