Thanks for the replies. Lifestyle change is literally us (parents) moving out of the room and eldest daughter (21) shifting from one room to another. No clothes or wet towels are ever hung over the radiator. The damp seal paint was only used on the angled wall. I've just checked up there and...

Hi all, Looking for some advice on this as it's frustrating to say the least! North facing bedroom. House is a 1950's built semi. Been here 15 years. No major issues with damp in that bedroom during this time apart from tiny (and I mean tiny) mould spots appearing over the coldest of...

LOL - yeah, I could... except they want the old bath back for "research" :unsure: <goes to find drill> :ROFLMAO:

Just a small update for you guys in case anyone else has a similar issue. Moan moan moan and patience seems to get you a result. Manufacturers have "reconsidered" and "want to close the matter" so are paying out. Not for everything, just the refitting costs (minus tiles and minus third party...

It's a calculated risk... obviously everything was fully tested for about 3 weeks before being fully tiled and access is available via a stud wall on the adjoining room (the family bathroom) for the waste etc but it didn't account for a random hole in the neck of the waste on the other side of...

OK, I'll speak to CAB if I can get through. I paid by debit card. Once they were in receipt of this video they started emailing me "without prejudice" but have gone quiet since the manufacturer has said they aren't interested. Tried to upload the video but it didn't like it. In a nutshell...

Bath was supplied by the bathroom shop we sourced both suites from. They were interested at first but they've pretty much left me to deal with the bath manufacturer directly now after passing me their details.

This could be a long story but I'll keep it brief! New en-suite bathroom fitted Feb/March 2022. All new construction into extension so all new pipes and fittings etc. October 2022 - wife lets bath out. Most of the water ends up on the kitchen floor. Bath is tiled so queue a bit of to-ing...

Sorry, it's a Glowworm 30hxi

I found a little puddle of water under the boiler when I was in the loft and took the case off to see that the condense box was waterlogged and the bottom of the boiler was pretty rusty. I'm not going to attempt to clean this myself and have already called a plumber because I've also found...

I thought I would but the hose was enough! Haha...no I'm not... number 2's are banned in the en-suite now :sick:

I was a bit dubious but it's nothing a pair of marigolds can't handle!

Thanks. Got it all back together after a good clean up and is working as if it was new :)

Hi Ive had the enviable task of stripping down my Saniflo unit today. It's for the most part, cleaned up but I have a question on the shower inlet pipe. Should this be non return? When I first cleaned it, no water was running out from it but the float was wedged down with carp. No it's clean...

Thanks for the replies. After letting it settle last night, and re-bleeding, and setting everything a little bit lower temperature wise, the pipes are no longer banging. However, the rad that not working is still on strike though. Not sure if comes on when just the HW is on, will have to...
