Im considering putting a hole through this joist in the position arrowed. It will be for a shower waste pipe IMG-20210629-WA0001 by 600rob posted 1 Jul 2021 at 1:12 PM The joist itself is 62mm thick by 205mm tall. Its at least 3 metres long starting from the wall and i want to see if is...

Drilled a few 20mm dia holes deep into the trunk then topped the holes up with some off this every few days through a funnel and bit of hose pipe. I had an unwanted sycamore that kept growing very quickly back every year after pruning. The leaves turned brown and it stopped growing in a few...

I need to fit a concealed shower valve/diverter in the shower cubicle are im working on. The problem im facing is the internal depth of the wall is only about 55mm. The shower side of the wall has a couple of sheets of 12.5mm plasterboard which increases the wall depth a bit more. The rear...

My wall is a paramount wall with only a couple of thin studs which i dont think is sufficient. The plan was to make an additional timber frame that ties into the floor and ceiling joists somehow then mount the toilet frame to that. I suppose I could skip the floor section but will need to tie...

Hi. I want to fit a timber across two joists in the floor order to provide something solid to bolt down a wall hung toilet frame. (not confident in the chipboard floor boards) Also do the same in the ceiling joists so i can build out a frame Whats the best thing to fit the timber and ensure...

Thanks folks. founds this which is solvent weld on the boss side and compression for the pipe which might do the job aswell

Thats my main concern. I want to fit a 50 mm waste pipe to the pre drilled boss on this https://www.screwfix.com/p/floplast-sp581g-boss-pipe-grey/18246 So far all ive managed to find is the rubber 50mm adapter

Cheers. For some reason im not that confident in them especially when the branch will be under the floor....Im sure they're fine but the idea of solvent welded seems more permanent to me. Cant seem to find much so might need to put a little trust into the rubber ones

Need to fit a boss adapter for 50mm pipe And just wondering how reliable those push in rubber adapters are. https://www.screwfix.com/p/floplast-boss-adaptor-50mm/53507 Will be below floorboards so want something thats not going to give any problems down the line. Seen a few plastic solvent...

Yes it did work out easier to do what i was working on actually. In theory it shouldn't leak as that part of the svp is about 5 foot above the first waste entry. Will glue it up on reassembly as that should keep it air tight.

Doing a bit of work changing branches on the waste pipe and had the svp temporarily displaced. While genly moving the pipework the joint with the access show below hatch fell apart. DSC_3419 by 600rob posted 12 Jun 2021 at 11:18 AM Doesn't look like it was ever solvent welded...just a little...

tried that access plug but its a loose fit.... the OD of the plug is approx 40.5 but the ID of the boss socket is about 43mm.... not sure if thats something marley did to only make their parts compatible with each other. Anyway i found one of these that seem to fit...

Thanks @ianmcd No bother about the colour as it will be hidden

Cheers I think it's designed like this but there is some sort of glue around the outside. DSC_3674 by 600rob posted 11 Jun 2021 at 9:15 AMDSC_3676 by 600rob posted 11 Jun 2021 at 9:15 AM Will get a pushfit cap or replace the whole thing
