Without the model number to hand right now we cant tell for sure but when you say preheat; does this mean that the combi fires up for a minute or so throughout the day at random points? Because I know that my boiler does that.

Someon has suggested possible diverter valve. How does this sound?

I can check that tonight for you

I have a 4 year old new build flat with 5 rads (all except one have TRVs) and an Ideal Combi Boiler, which I know is a poor boiler to be relying on. The heating has been off throughout the spring and summer without problem but during the recent cold snap I have had to switch the system to...

Is that definitely true? When I've reversed it the leakage seems worse

Ahhhh My apologies. The bit which is tight to the glass is actually quite firm plastic and the flap is soft. So cutting off a bit of that bit gripping glass will help. Shall I just use a junior hacksaw? Thanks for your help

I've just looked again and to be honest if anything its the hard plastic that is holding the seal back as opposed to the other way around. Is cutting the solid plastic back 5-10mm feasible?

So cut the solid plastic guide away from the soft seal and thread it so the soft seal covers the gap more?

yeah sure http://db.tt/O9sIhEjl This is from inside. The tiny gap is in the circled area. It looks as though it could be pushed forward a little more but honestly thats as far as it goes.

Yeah I agree. Believe it or not The place is a new build and only 3 years old. That's how it was done from new. Shall i buy a different seal?

No chance as that would stop the screen moving on the hinge. Here's a photo http://db.tt/p1bjJRF7 Sorry for only posting the link. I'm doing this from my ipad and haven't worked it out exactly yet!!

Right does anyone have any tips for me on this one? Despite pushing it up as close to the hinge as possible I'm struggling to make sure that the shower seal stops a dribble of water that flows between the tiny gap left on the straight edge. I've managed to blag another seal from the...

And here's the end result

Couple of close shaves now and my inexperience is showing. Went and picked up the bits I needed from the list I had written and drilled a test hole on an old tile. I thought to myself 'that looks big' and upon checking realised that the required holes were listed as 4mm as opposed to 8mm...

What about the PVC cladding option? The more I look at it the more I think that Cladding might be better.

Cabinet will cover the opening. My light switch in the bathroom is like the following: http://www.maplin.co.uk/ceiling-pull-switch-1247?c=maplin&utm_source=gcs&utm_medium=gcs_search&utm_campaign=FQ00A&utm_content=Mains+Wiring+Accessories Shall I open that up and see if its attached from there?

Ok I had a bit of a delay so just gt round to marking up this work today. Luckily my nervousness (as opposed to common sense) made me try drilling a test tile first. My masonry bit is poor and luckily I haven't done any damage to the bathroom wall, just the test tile. Tomorrow I am going...

You definitely are the Wizard!! You were spot on. Just took out the grub screw and tightened with an Allan Key. A little fidly but piece of cake. Thanks for your help
