Yes the plumber took the panel off and decreed that was the issue. There is zero tap movement. He showed me the water running along the pipes when he sprayed the water on to the tap base. I then did a temporary fix - as per the photos - and sprayed it again and could not see the water on the pipes.

Have just checked and it is very firmly in place and not loose. So on this basis it makes me think tightening the tap wont even work and it is just an oversight when the tap was fixed that it wasnt sealed correctly. Think silicone around the base is the next step and fingers crossed thats all...

Hi We recently moved into a property that is about 3yrs old. Ever since we have used the shower we have had a leak that is showing by the wetness on the carpet in the adjoining room. Having called in a plumber they have advised the water is coming through a gap where the tap is installed...

Thanks - i will take a look

OK - maybe i just leave it a bit then til the water has refilled to flush again :) thanks all

Could do with a clean up perhaps! see photo.

This cistern fills. It now seems to be working... Last night it DID work again after a while... so it appeared that you needed to wait a bit if time before you could flush it again,, but this morning you can flush it straight after.

Thanks - so does that sound like it could be the issue? and when you say the water level can be adjusted do you mean by adding more water to the cistern (or is there another way to do this)?

Hi I have just moved into a new build house (it's 3 years old but we've just moved in). We've been in for a few weeks and we've had no problems, now the en-suite flush isnt working. The bowl looks to have less water than before; so maybe i just need to add more water!? See photo attached of...

Thanks for your comprehensive response!

Thanks - i'll research some of those options.

Hi Another post from me..! We will soon be moving house and i'm keen to employ some smart tech. I've done a little bit of research and am keen to hear opinions on the best smart tech options available including security and heating and any other options i don't know about... I've looked at...

Hi I am moving house and the new property has an integrated kitchen. They have a washing machine and we have a free standing washer/dryer. Given moving effort (as we live in a flat) and timing, we will sell our unit and make do with the washer for now. However, longer term I'm keen to...

Thanks everyone. We have this

Posting here as this is "roof" related and also "plumbing" potentially... There is an ominous looking crack and slight bowing around a pipe in our kitchen. I've only just spotted it, but it could have been there ages... im wondering if there is a water deposit in the roof from the rain...

Good ideas! I'll have to check when we move in if it is a concrete floor or timber.

Thanks both

Hi This is an appliance/electrical query... We are moving to a new house and are going to have our recliner sofa in the middle of the room. So we will need to stretch the electrical supply across the room to a power point... i'm concerned the kids could trip on it.... is there a wireless...

Thanks for responses so far. Maybe i'll ask my installer about vaillant/worcester. How about the prices... does that seem competitive?

My 1996 Vaillant boiler is kaput - still, at least it's not cold... My plumber has recommended two choices and i wondered if anyone can vouch for either. I'm also interested to know if the cost quoted is competitive. The quotes are: Ideal Logic Plus = 1860 fitted. Glow-worm Make TBC =...
