Fortunately not on this occasion, just a leaking compression fitting, couldn't help but laugh at the DIY instal.
 
Saw this on Twitter. It's not his work, it's something he'd spotted. Don't think he's a member of the forum as he'd have already posted this if he was.

Push fit on gas. Surely not for real (RIDDOR and lock them up). Two flexi's? well then, and what was the point of that meter bracket?
 
Hmm, people have had their acs revoked for taking pictures of the training centre acs bays and kicked off the course!
 
Looking at the iso valve ......I don't trust what customer tells me !!! No plumber will do this , looks like hubby's job

Maybe the push fit stop end was just temporary until he could fit the gate valve?

^ That's a joke, don't anyone flip out!

Yes, better not say anything controversial. Even in jest. You might get your ticket taken off you or something similarly severe. This is serious!! Gas is serious you know! It's not to be laughed at.

Had a phone call from a customer today asking me if I could come round and price up fitting her bathroom, I proceeded to ask for a few details when she bust into tears explaining that a friend of a friend had started the bathroom and halfway through had done a runner. That's not so bad I thought but then she tells me she had paid them up front.......Oh dear not good. The scenario, husband jailed for unspeakable actions with her children and she's vulnerable . Absolute pair of unscrupulous bar stewards fleeced her for the best part of £800 she had saved to have the work done. I went round t o have a look and this what she was left with

Snake connecting the toilet up
Rise to the soil pipe, glued in with silicone !
Toilet not flush to the wall, wooden battens used. Would have been a doddle to instal correctly.
Floor spacers used on the tiles see gaps!!!!
Tiles mis aligned all over.
Basin not attached to the wall, wastes not connected
Bath not connected waste or feed pipes

A complete sack of carp , which has left this poor lady high and dry!

I asked her how she was bathing her three kids, downstairs in the kitchen sink she says !!!!!
