Sorry to reopen this question, but I popped back to Wickes to get a pack of the normal non super-seal inserts and they were also labelled twist lock! They also seem to have a little nick out of the edge which looks like it might be part of the twist lock system. Slightly confused!

Thank you, probably won't risk it as I'm overly cautious but good to know . Thank you for your help.

Ah ok, thanks. I presume there isn't such a thing as a twist and lock stop end?

Hi, I'm planning ahead for a project where I am going to need to use some JG speedfit stop ends on some plastic pipe. I've bought a bag of the super-seal pipe inserts but I've noticed that they are labelled 'twist lock' while the stop end is 'standard connection'. I presume that they are...

Thanks, I might do that. From what I have seen so far in other rooms, there is no insulation between the internal walls and the external walls are dot and dab so also don't have insulation.

Thanks so much, great advice.

No, time or money isn't a particular issue. We have another bathroom we can use fortunately. Experience is my main issue as I have not boarded a wall before but I like to try and learn. I was considering trying to install an LED lit wall niche anyway Can anyone suggest a good video guide...

Hi all, I'm going to be attempting to renovate our bathroom in a months time. It's a 90s house and most internal walls are stud and plasterboard. My plan was to remove the tiles as cleanly as possible from the plasterboard, and presuming I didn't destroy it in the process just to re-tile on...

Thank you, appreciate that, I just wondered if it might be a movement thing that I hadn't thought of. Appreciate it, will definitely have a think about my options.

Thanks @denso13 As above, what was the reason behind not having the unit right up the edge of the bath please?

Out of interest, why leave a gap to the bath? The bathroom is currently configured as you see in the photo. It has a bead of silicone between the bath and the unit. When it is refurbished I plan to have a fixed shower screen which will proceed further than the front of the unit and then...

Thanks guys. Just thinking about this a little more. Is there actually any reason I shouldn't use kitchen units if I find something suitable? Perhaps even it might be an option to cut the back of the carcasses to reduce the depth? Or maybe use kitchen wall units as I imagine they are...

Thanks, I have looked. Its not really a bespoke unit I am looking for. A bespoke unit suggests that it needs to be made to my requirements. I am looking to purchase a toilet unit, a sink unit and a storage unit to fit my space and then finish with appropriate blanking pieces and worktop that...

Hi all, I am currently planning for a DIY bathroom refurbishment and am starting to look around for products and supplies. I am aiming to find something similar to the sink/toilet/storage unit you see in this image: I have around 1350mm to play with. In the past on my other bathroom...

In case this helps anyone in the future, I emailed Durgo tech support and had a very helpful reply from their Technical Manager..... " Hi, Based on the pictures it looks like a DN110 valve. You can find the dimension and year of manufacture on the top of the valve, engraved on the upper part...
