I have a service contract with BG which includes plumbing. Last week, I heard a vibrating noise fromm my hot water tank, I rang BG and Dyno Rod came to fit a new ball valve. All done I thought. Not so. Later that day I noticed water dripping form my overflow pipe at the front of the house, so I went to check the water level in the tank which was ok, but I noticed that the valve which drips water into the tank for a few minutes after re-filling was situated just above the overflow pipe! :rolleyes: So everytome it refills, the last few drips go into the overflow. You would have thought that the engineer would have known this would happen and re-position the valve away from the overflow.

I now have to wait till Wednesday for them to come and fix it. After this I think I'll cancel my contract. For what I have paid out over the years, it would have been cheaper to get a local plumber to do the job.

Don`t upset the BG shareholders :mrgreen: It`ll be interesting to hear the outcome - I would have sold you a Bylaw 30 kit ( if needed) with a dip pipe on the overflow - that would`ve stopped the problem -

They only employ 18 year old plumbers, I've never seen anyone older drive their vans.

Not just plumbers getting younger, I was stopped by an embryo wearing a wonder bra for using my phone when I was driving, managed to talk my way out of it (more luck than judgement) couldent believe she was old enough to drive let alone be a copper.
 
What did you say to get off on that Picasso?
