Just a quick update on this. Turns out the slide rail etc. was still under warranty so they replaced the shower head holder free of charge. To replace, the rounded part at the top and bottom just slid off, I could then unscrew the rail from the wall and replace the holder. All fixed now...

Cool, cheers. Next silly question, how would I get the old one off? I thought the top and bottom bits would slide off but they are attached to the bits that are fitted to the wall. Only thing I can see are one tiny hole right at the top and bottom. The bits attached to the wall have plastic...

Thanks for the prompt reply, unfortunately the plastic clip is broken, think in the picture you can see that it has broken apart so clipping back in doesn't work. Cheers.

Think this is the right place for this. I'm sure I am being dumb, but how do I fix the issue in the attached picture? The shower just keeps sliding down now whenever it is switched on. Many thanks.

Hi, Thanks for this. The metal nut has actually been tightened up in the image. When I undo the metal nut it goes down to where the arrow shows in the attached image and no further, the plastic tube seem to go down a little further and I cannot get it out. Thanks, D

Hi, Thanks for this. I have undone the metal nut but weirdly the plastic tube doesn't come out, it seems to go down further than where the metal nut will undo to (if that makes sense?). Thanks, D

Arrgh, how can something that seems so easy end up being so difficult. So, managed to get rid of all the water but now stuck getting one of the nuts off. I have attached an image, it is the white plastic one. It is right underneath the cistern and right at the back so is difficult to get any...

Jesus, I think i was over thinking possible solutions. Of course, a sponge :) Thanks, D

Sorry, it seemed to get worse over time. OK, I finally got the parts that I required and decided to do the work this evening. Turned the water off to the toilet, gave it a flush and discovered that it doesn't completely empty, it leaves about 2 inches of water. Wondering if anyone had any...

OK, thanks for this. Think I might try the Fluidmaster bit first, my DIY skills are limited so don't want to push my luck :). Out of interest (and may be showing real lack of knowledge here) if the Fluidmaster part is replacing the current ballcock/tap, where does he water come out to fill the...

Hi, Thanks for that. So basically does that replace the ballcock/tap bit that is at the back of the picture, while the blue flusher bit stays? Thanks, D

Hi, Hope someone can help? We have a toilet that refills extremely slowly after it has been flushed. I have attached an image of how things look, basically it seems that if I slightly adjust the little nut shown in the image one way then the toilet will keep filling to the point of...

Marvellous, many thanks for the info. Cheers.

Just an update on this. I went with the No Nonsense products from Screwfix (along with the No Nonsense gun) - cost about £4 in total and so far seem to have worked a treat. Cheers.

I have a really basic question but what is the seal shown in the image that goes around the window called? I need to replace it, or add to what is there at the bottom of the window as there seems to be a gap. Cheers.
