I’ve downloaded the manual and it looks like it it’s just 15mm protruding out and nut/olive? Is this correct?? Is so Ivan easily extend existing 15mm 10-15mm and use new olives. Can’t see how the ‘caps’ pop off and how the 2.5mm hex is used?? Manual-...

Hi all. I have a downstairs shower on back room ( main bathroom is upstairs) and it’s leaking from the vertical joints. This happened after I removed a disability seat/handrail. I did silicone over them and force it into the slight gaps but it has returned. I only require 4 panels each...

Why not just use the tool that comes with it? Fits it perfectly.

looked at the Selco baths today. Awefull build quality and very thin with the waste hike being very irregular. Went to a decent merchants who had much better ones at only £35 more. I was considering adding my own fibreglass tbh as it would be simple enough as I have enough resin/450g matting...

There’s a plastic tool to use with it as above. In the instructions it states is only for the overflow part but it fits both. It’s 15mm socket size, no chance any flat head would fit it. I suppose the small holes in the sides are there to insert a small driver to nip it up after hand tight...

Rubber seal correct way?

I was just watching ‘PlumberParts’ video guy on YouTube. He was covering everything in silicone. Same type waste with large compression overflow.

Hi all After recommendations on here I ditched the Flomasta overflow and went with a decent McAlpine one. Wow! The difference in quality is unreal!! I have a quick question though regarding on how to tight the screw needs to be holding the waste together. It comes with a plastic tool is...

Hi all In process of digging out before a lay an Indian stone stone patio. How much compacted Type1 1 do I require is there a calf for when it whacked ? I’m looking to lay membrane first. The. Type 1 whacked. Then sandstone on 50mm/2” full bed. So I need a slurry or SBR to the backs of...

Mix some concrete in as well. 6/1 will be fine.

Cheers guys. Think I’ll pick up the ERBAUER one. My local merchants wanted £76 for an unbranded one!! I’ve not many cuts to do tbh as I’ve been laying mostly porcelain with a 4” grinder. Get these blades if you do. Absolutely awesome imo...

Hi all Not purchased a 9” disc for years and I used to use Marcrist (or similar) back then. What is a decent diamond disc I can purchase now online/or Builders supplies. Cheers.

They also do one with a 25 year warranty. Not sure if that’s long enough though ? https://www.plumbingworld.co.uk/trojan-solarna-1700mm-x-700mm-5mm-single-ended-plain-bath

I meant standard size not bath quality. I’ve messaged a mate who does a lot of bathrooms and he has been fitting these for years with zero problems. It’s 6mm compared to the 5mm Selco...

No way am I paying that for a standard 1700 acrylic bath!!!!

Discontinued and the one review it had was rubbish. Also I’m not looking for a pop up waste. Just a standard manual plug as there’s less to go wrong. These seem to have a good review elsewhere...

What make/model. Should there be a spacer between ’knob’ and main unit? Screw should tighten fully without interference with the control knob. Does tightening it fully affect operation of the knob?

Hi All I’m looking to renew a plastic/fibreglass standard bath 1700x700. I’m noticing a LOT of new ones are of poor quality, some you can even see through them!! I’ve seen a good reviews of the Selco Norton bath at 5mm thick. They sell a complete suite with it and it’s good reviews...

Hi all Replacing some tiles after a basic like for like refit. Basin/toilet and soon to be bath. I have 600 x 300mm tiles and need to cut several 50mm lengths due to bath being under window. It currently has a pice of plastic makeup roughly siliconed in the gap. Is it possible to cut...

I ended up replacing it all even the 40mm that is out of sight. I chipped around where it exits and it was PVC solvent pipe all the way to the basin. The solvent weld pipe was nice and tight going into the Osma seals which were not perished. I did have to coke the edge to make a ‘point’ to...
