Can anybody please confirm if I've installed that blue blanking plug correctly as doesn't appear to be made of much and isn't that difficult to pull out? Should it be glued in or just pushed in? Sealant around it?? Pictures below.

Hi Chris many thanks mate sorry forgot to say have some left over from a couple of years ago when had to repair a leaking toilet waste soil pipe, checked it in the garage to make sure it's still good before I went and it was good to go

Laughing at some of the humorous replies above but have to agree about whoever installed that needs a check up, and that's coming from somebody who doesn't really know much about plumbing. Ok so I've now got the bits as per the below picture, you may notice something that wasn't on the list? A...

Many Thanks Johnny all ordered on way to collect now! Many thanks for your help mate and everybody else also!!

OK bit of a Night Owl as normally work better after Midnight. I've removed all the grey pipes and now left with the below photos. 1. Can I reuse the overflow from the small sink and pickup with it on the new trap as I won't be able to get up the back of it to disconnect without lifting the...

Many Thanks Johnny, just ordering all the bits now ready for collection in morning. Just had a quick look at the strainers recommended and one has an overflow, but where does this pick up on tbe trap? The large sink doesn't have an overflow but the smaller one does, ive taken a photo as below...

Many Thanks Chris, could you please point me in the right direction for the: I would get a length of pipe, fittings and clips.?

Hi All, thank you all for the great advice. I've got a few questions, apologies in advance, but i live out in the sticks and the nearest Screwfix/B&Q etc is nearly 2hrs round trip away from me!! Therefore I need to make sure I get ALL the things I need, will be going first thing in the morning...

Hi Johnny just to confirm if the U Bend will still be above the bottom shelf with no support under it the bolt going through the strainer from above the sink into the thread in the lower section of the strainer will.be enough to hold the trap up without it pulling away again? This is the way...

Fantastic many thanks guys will get these and start work after Christmas and may be back here asking you some questions! Much appreciated for your help and Merry Christmas :)

Hi Andy /Johnny many thanks for your response especially on Christmas Day of all days. Would you recommend replacing all that grey piping with the white compression fittings? If you have a look bottom left where the grey joins with the white waste pipe, it has like a white double coupler? Will...

Hi All, firstly Merry Christmas to all and apologies for posting a Need Advice post on Christmas Day. However..... Purchased a new house this year and I've pretty much been flat out replacing things due to leaks in bathrooms etc since moving in. Just spent the last few weeks before Christmas...

Thanks Guys nice to be able to speak to decent people for advice without the usual flaming that goes on in other forums.

Hi Sparkwright I cut off the ends as I've done all of the connections again (as per below photos) but thank you for that pointer as I probably wouldn't have thought of that unless I had noticed some visible damage. I've now got the new cooker in and all working fine! :)...

Hi Terry, out of interest, why doesn't a plastic backbox come with a strain relief for the incoming cables? The cooker socket I have has a strain relief for the flex coming out at the bottom (has similar to that as on a plug) however the backbox has no strain reliefs for the cable coming in...

Hi Terry, I will have to pull the double socket out and hopefully not damage the drywall in the process as the butterfly lugs on the sides aren't easy to get out on that box, what are the dangers of leaving it as it is? As there aren't any exposed wires and it isn't at any risk of being pulled...

Also that Wago box is now in the wall! I didn't strip anymore sheathing off of it, and previously it was the same but with a screwdown terminal block, therefore hopefully it's now even safer with the Wago clip connectors instead..... Therefore will it be OK to leave it in the wall without the...
