I assume so but the limestone tiles I got were very cheap and turned out to not be 'real' limestone but tiles made from the powdered limestone thus they were very fragile and porous so this may have been the cause of the crack. He said he did put plastic mesh all underneath as the floor was...

Ah thank you. I notice the Power Clean and Wexa have different descriptions: Power Clean Wexa Do they do the same thing or is one more effective (recommended) than the other? Here is a picture of the staining, actually it does not seem like too much now but I'm just a layman! (You...

Ah thanks. I know if he ever comes back and I mention it to him he will just say its a waste of money and rubbish it. He didn't use anything before grouting and you can see some slight grout marks where he wiped with the sponge. I know he was trying to do the cheapes possible for me but I spend...

Yes well let's say it's worse that he is my 'friend' (acquaintance more like), as this and my fathers numerous experiences with workmen's attitude and shoddy jobs have not convinced me that you can trust a tradesman not mess you around or rip you off in some way (as per the TV shows!). This guy...

The saga of my bathroom refurbishment goes on..I got a 'friend' to do it because he was going to give me a huge discount as I am currently a student and don't even own my (council) flat and had saved up over 10yrs for it. After having put up with no bath or shower facilities for 5 weeks, due to...

I had a look and as you can see there is only what looks like an adjustable plastic screw thing on one side so I have no option but to use bits of wood to level it. Also, I just noticed that there appears possibly to be a lack of screws on the bottom so I imagine this contributed to the left...

OMG!!! I followed your suggestions and saw that the pin was unscewed, screwed it back in (tight) and now for the 1st time in years it swings without support and so smoothly! lol My friends will all comment they can't believe I fixed it after all these yrs lol Actually, my bathroom fitter was...

Hi Thanks for your advice. I have searched but I cannot find any identifying numbers or even a manufacturer name. The only thing I found was Electrolux 75AA which turns out to be a compressor. How I know it is Servis is that the number for spares is stickered inside and a net search on it...

I believe it's a Servis fridge, but I can't find the model number anywhere. It is about 10yrs old.

The pole that my fridge door swings on snapped at the top so I am having to hold it up with some cord tightened to the back grills. I am loathe to replace the fridge as there is nothing wrong with it and it seems like a waste of money to do this. This happened 4yrs ago and the reason I...

That's not really practical. You would have to take off your pants and underwear completely to use it then. I imagine for some of you that wouldn't be an issue as you would 'just accept it is different and keep using it'.......

Yes unfortunately. I don't suppose anyone can suggest a small projection wall hung toilet (max 530mm) that they have a good recommendation for?

Well the poo gets stuck on the pan above the waste and it happens ALL the time an sometimes even flushing three times does not help and you have to wipe with a toilet brush. Is this something that you would find acceptable when the toilet you had before never had this problem.

He has told me that the water flush of the toilet is too strong and it empties the cistern very quickly. He said he can try to put some sort of blocker to let the water run longer so I will see if it makes any difference. Since the flush panel is not on I have been pulling up the plastic bit...

Well a square one would go better with my bathroom since the bath and sink are more cubic shaped but since the space is tiny (16m2 for tiles floor & ceiling incl) a square toilet would take a little more space than a circular one as the space between the toilet and bath is very tight and a...

Lol no I know what u r thinking but he is a friend of 2yrs and an extremely honest person..interior designer as well as plumber, electrician, kitchen/bathroom fitter and everything else as well as having million pound businesses in Yugoslavia before the war...He fitted the toilet & cistern in...

Actually I found the details and it's this toilet: http://www.bathstore.com/products/euro-trio-wall-hung-pan-1034.html Which is a well known UK store so I don't know why they would have stocked a strange toilet and not said anything in the specifications! The waste is actually in the...

I will suggest it to him tomorrow. Does this work on the push button flush cisterns as the images for a flapper valve on google I see seem to be for handle/chain operated ones? In your experiences, does this improve the clearing of any poo stuck to the back or is there something else you can...

Damn..it's a shame as everything else I bought on his recommendation but this I bought before I met him and we didn't realise its 'flaw' until it was installed. I asked him if he recommended to buy another and he told me no (probably due to the fact that it took him a lot of work to attach...

I think I misheard what he said..He said he had never installed such a type before but that there were front and all around flushing available too but that the best was back. I am already having problems where the poo does not clean on the 1st flush and needs another (or another) to...
