Once the missus borrows her dad's camera again I'll get to work on a few more pics. The camera I own myself you have to put film in it.

Keep meaning to get some pics but my work isn't all that varied these days. Taps, taps, taps... more taps etc. I'll still post pics here when and if I come across any decent opportunities.

Kitchen Sink Taps etc.





Once again, not the most professional looking pics but at least they're free to crop, flip, resize, add your own watermark to or whatever - without worrying about copyright infringement.

Outside Tap



Forgot to take a pic after I sealed the sleeve but it's makes for a better outside tap than most I've found in Google Images.

Nice looking job mate, unless using my preferred choice of a wall-plate (I think that's what they're called) I'd have done the exterior pipework going downwards so they can drain off easier in winter.
But tell you what, that's the shiniest wall plate elbow I think I've ever seen 🙂

Yes it's a wallplate, wallplate elbow or backplate elbow, whatever you prefer really. Pipework heads down in this case because there's a slight fall towards an internal drain off under the sink unit.

I meant one of them.
If I was using a wall plate elbow (backplate elbow) I'd make the pipe run down to it rather than up to it so they can drain the pipes in winter.

Ideally yes, but it's not always possible which is why I fit a drain off inside if the indoor pipework has to be lower than the tap.

What are those wallplate's like anyway, how long is the pipe on it? I've heard many complain they leak due to bad soldering.

I really like them, not had a bad one yet and must have used a hundred of them.
The pipe length is just about right for a standard brick house wall, if it's stone or silly thick I just couple a bit of 15mm on the end to extend it.

You get long ones also

Every time I've tried one of these when I try to drill fixings the brick breaks away into the pipe hole!
