Work from the inside, fit the window unglazed seal the exterior perched on the sill and then glaze from the inside, I take it this is on the ground floor? Pete

Insulate and just floor over them, I am guessing that the channell is not wider than 80mm? Pete

A concealed cistern and floor mounted pan could be a option. I doubt you can get a pan to wall option with a 90 degree soil pipe connection. Pete

Need more info, how long will the waste pipe run, what size 40mm or 50mm how many elbows, and finally what drain are you using as this dictates the outlet level to your soil connection. Pete

Cornice work gets well paid in London and is a specialist field for period properties in demand. Pete

You can get all diff sizes with diff manufacturers, floplast, Hunter, wavin the list goes on. Generally you only use an insert on a strap on boss so if the sleeve on your soil pipe is a good fit with a 40mm pipe or even a coupling if it is loose go for it. If you need any more encouragement...

Possibilty of a few spacers behind the fixing screws will take it away from the wall enough to give the lid room to sit on the cistern. Pete

Yes go for it big style my son. Offer up the 40mm solvent weld pipe to it and it should be a snug fit, if so core it out and weld it in. Pete

He may have thought it was an overflow warning pipe, remember he is just a lowly wet plumber like me and we have no idea about anything else except that the water turns clockwise down the bath waste, or was it anti clockwise I keep forgetting. :roll: Pete

£600 supply and £150 to fit a combi boiler, bite his hand off and give me his number quick. A few contradictions in your post, Combis do not generally have cylinders apart from a few select which have an internal storage capacity. Do you mean a seperate hot water cylinder as if so then you...

Yes go for it. Pete

It all depends on so many variables, access for machinery and waste disposal, size of sewer pipe and connections required, if full access chamber is required or an inspection cover. If it was completed the same time as the footings for extension this would be more economical. Pete

Electric showers generally do not provide a strong flow rate so you may struggle with anything other than what the manufacturer provides or advises. Electric heating elements do not like any restrictions as the heat builds up in the exchanger and usually blows off the over pressure unit. I...

100w bulb will kick out some heat which will cause the glass to implode if water splashes on it. Most units only have a 12v transformer supply to the light so you may have to look at led options. The inline fan can be any size you like we use Manrose MF range which are powerful and can be made...

Do not forget the time that you offer as part of the initial price to return if your work has an issue within 12 months. Pete

I completed my Nebosh exams a few years back and it was always taught that it was a Mobile elevating work platform so you should stay on board. If you were to step off then this would need a specific risk assessment completed. Have a look at this link for more info...

3 port valve seems like the culprit with possibilty of the internal micro switch contacts stuck closed. The lever should have resistance with no call for heat or hot water. If it is moving freely the motor has energised and is holding the valve open for heat or hot water or both. Turn the power...

What type of pipe are you using, we always test to 6 bar and maintain this throughout the screeding process. Pete

I bet you anything it is a white one as they are always causing problems :lol: My crystal ball thinks it is a Unica HE :idea:

Oops standard 2 1/4 " BSP thread element, rather than a "special" :) Pete
