That's how it's done in new builds but the pipe is only 10mm I think. Personally think the way the pipe enters the valves looks a dogs dinner but it's your choice.

Yes you can, lots of new builds use push fit pipe in this way. Run your pipe and pressurise it before boarding over if you can to test for leaks. I'd personally finish it with copper coming out of the wall for a neater finish.

Are you sure the washer in that pipe fitting was a) in place b) in good order. If it's been fitted to a different valve it may be crushed or deformed to fit that valve.

Why not fit two plates to each area. The bottom hole of one plate does the top and top hole of the other does the bottom. You can then space them exactly where you want them.

If it's a "smart" bulb is it simple?

Having re-read your post are you only wanting to replace the rubber washers behind the fixing nut of the mixer bar? If so then you should be ok. If it's z bolts you may find they turn slightly but you won't know until you try. If just mixer bar washers, then it should be water off, undo mixer...

Water off, undo nuts, unscrew plastic cone covers. You'll either have wall plates or z bolts beneath

You need liquid PTFE. Amazing stuff and sets in contact with water. Cheap too

My youth

Or re-measure in metric

Take it somewhere hot for a winter holiday

My father who has been suckered in the past by scams sent me a link to this asking if it was worth the cost. Guess he's never going to learn.

The sink should have been fitted with a seal, in lieu of that and good bead of clear silicone does the job perfectly.

That looks very unsightly

There's always a tiny gap on the folding screens. Always where the seal meets the pivot point.

Most modern cisterns have a warning on installation instructions saying nothing but water in the cistern as the seals will be damaged.

I'm not up on the regs either tbh but I'd bet money that you're right.
