Can I just purchase the part/valve that fits in the top (looks like they come as a repair kit online) or does the whole casing/body the valve sits in need to be replaced?
I would also purchase a new motorised head

I’ve attached some pics. Please note - I never peeled that section of paper away...
The concrete is level with the ground and the concrete blocks would be sat on these laid on a bed of mortar.
I’m could have these laid in a couple hours in the morning but don’t know how long to would take for the mortar to cue and what impact the temp would have on these during the night...

'buildings inspector' is a broad term nowadays.
For example, I contract to a large housing association. They have building inspectors that have no specific building qualifications. They bring in experts such as 'me' when faced with anything remotely technical.
It just depends on the company...
I agree with the majority. A double socket is one point of untilisation. It's one connection/joint to the circuit whereby power can be drawn.
In my mind recording this info seems in most cases pointless. However, if previous test results/information is available it does provide useful info to...
