I'm guessing I'll need to remove the 2 cartridges (revealed after removing the 2 handles) before the unit comes...
The high up mount that holds it to the wall? I haven't undone it but the riser twists within it, I still can't get it to lift of the valve though.

Hello,
We’re renovating our new home which is near a river. While it hasn't flooded for 50 years, we are putting in place flood resilience features while we have the chance (a sump, french drain, repointing subfloor joints etc).
