What we all working on this week ?

[king of pipes]

I have a insurance job to try and rescue a poorly installed quad shower the customer wants to save the tiling if possible and has a few spare so fingers crossed it may work , the loss adjuster allowed em £1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

Today's hard work. Got to be done though.

 

[Scott_D]

Vaillant Ecofit 830 combi
Vertical flues and condensate pumps are really time consuming!

 

[Scott_D]

Ecotec PCB. Does anyone used reconditioned boards?

 

[ShaunCorbs]

I don’t as the vaillant ones don’t last so I don’t hold much hope for recon ones

 

[king of pipes]

Back to finish ensuite shower after Christmas break. Kop

 

[king of pipes]

Finished off the shower room just the screen to fit once the decorating is completed . Fitted some bathroom ventilation. Kop

 

[Scott_D]

Ideal logic max 24 combi

 

[Scott_D]

Leaking steel gas pipe as it enters the property so had to repipe externally

On with this, day 10. Bit of a nightmare tbh. Guy is really fussy, and has bought the worst tiles we’ve ever worked with. Not cut straight, edges not square, length not cut square, and bowed like a banana. Be glad when it’s finished.

Looking good Mr Evil bit of a challenge for you 😉👍

Nice easy kitchen tap replacement until that decided it didn’t want to be on the pipe no more due to not being soldered and being in an l unit in the corner ffs

Message over the weekend, old oil Beta not working, no power to it.
Gets there this afternoon, fuse spur OK, power at timer and pump runs.
Boiler as dead as a fart.
Incoming power cable goes through case and round back of boiler, grabs cable and gently pull.
Hey presto end of cable not wired in anywhere. (Bearing in mind I fitted a new motor on the burner two weeks before Christmas and it was all good when I left).
Cable not pulled out as all in good condition and ready to be wired back in.

Nobody had touched it, according to customer.

But it didn't unwire itself.

Strange.

I went on a course years ago, and the only thing that stuck with me was 'The general public are liars and never believe what they tell you'. Mr invisible must have removed it.

Grouting today chaps, coming together a bit now

 

[Scott_D]

Some fancy rads

 

[Deleted member 120897]

No photos, but fixed a troublesome boiler (3 years old and new pump!) and did some wire tracing for a room thermostat - love those types where you have to use your brain a bit

Well smart that one bud looking forward to the finished pictures. Regards kop

 

[Last Plumber]

Boilers and Water heaters in nursing/care homes for next few week.
With all due respect to these places, I hope i'm not seeing a glimpse into my own future.

I imagine myself old, frustrated and trying to gain access to a plant room.


Hang on.............!

They've gone for Silver Grey Mapei (Picture was before grouting).
