This basin waste is fitted to a small Duravit hand basin in one of my partners bathrooms. The chrome has started to peel which looks a bit shabby. We’re looking to sell in the next few months so just tidying up a few details. Replacing the waste is not an option as the underside of the sink is...

Thanks buddy. I used that in the end and Gorilla epoxy to seal the cracked tile. It came up really well.

Hi all, My girlfriend and I are decorating her house and we’ve started tackling the bathrooms. I’ve just regrouted the floor in the main bathroom having removed the old grout and it’s come up really well, I’ve added before and after pictures. I’m just about to start the shower room which...

Thanks Terry. All being sorted by the insurance thankfully. Thanks again for your help.

Hi all. An update on this. It actually turned out to be 4 issues albeit 1/2 were the major issue(s). The tap tails had failed inside the taps so were weeping, this happened on the other taps of this type in the house so I’m not surprised. The compression joints fitted when the outside taps...

The shower is behind me when I’m taking the picture and waste pipe in boxing to the right. It’s 2 sinks directly above on each floor. There’s no signs of leakage anywhere and the only tell tale was this damp on the wall behind the pedestal. I’m thinking that if there are push fittings below...
