Greetings to all, I'm about to start rebuilding my bathroom after finding some serious water ingress into the plasterboard. The house is a 1970's ex-council mid-terraced and the wall in question is between me and a neighbour, I've got a stud frame about 5" deep on top of...

Greetings to all, Following some major water ingress into my bathroom plasterboard I'm in the process of riping the whole lot out and replacing with Aquapanel. My shower has a pipe running down from the ceiling on top of the existing tiles. I'd like to run a length of...

Thanks SteveStrat335 Aquapanel it shall be.

Many thanks for the replies. I believe the heating unit has been serviced annually since it's installation. We bought the house last year and had it serviced then. The Engineer reckons the Janus 3 unit and the fan had been replaced within the last 2-3 years. Cheers, Rusty Scot

Thanks Breezer, Unfortunately there's enough silicon on my tiles to seal the Titanic! Removing a tile confirmed my fears that the tiles had been leaking for sometime and the plasterboards goosed so alas I need to replace the plasterboard. Cheers, Rusty Scot

Greetings to Everyone, Firstly my apologies if this post is in the wrong forum I've been advised the quickest way to re-tile my bathroom is to remove the existing plasterboard and start over, So I've a couple of queries I'd appreciate some guidance on...

Greetings to all, Could anyone please advise if it's possible to either add a timer controller to a Janus 3 water heater or replace the water heater with a unit that has a timer control and would be compatible with the existing Johnson & Starley JT 19-25 Mk 2 Modairflow...

Many thanks to all who replied :D

Greetings To All, I'm planning on installing an electric heater in the bathroom as the house's Gas fired warm air ducting doesn't extend that far. From what I remember the fused spur should be outside the bathroom door but I'm not sure if I can install a heater with a...

Many thanks for the reply RichardWh. I don't think the stopcocks my problem as the Kitchen cold tap does a cracking impression of niagara falls in full flow although my stop cock now has a slight drip :? I've fitted service valves to...

Greetings To All, Last Weekend I installed a new kitchen sink, When I opened the stop cock I forgot to open the cold bathroom taps (Doh) :oops: Last Night I connected the Hot bath Tap to The Cold and waited until warm water came out the kitchen cold tap, then opened...

Many thanks for the advice Chris R, No joy I'm afraid. I closed the stop cock then joined the washing machine taps, opened upstairs taps then opened both w/m taps all I got was a slight trickle from the cold bath tap. I then closed the w/m taps and opened the kitchen cold tap. linked...

Greetings to all, Yesterday I installed a new kitchen sink, all went hunky dory until I turned the stop cock back on. I've plenty hot water in the kitchen and the bathroom but only have cold water in the kitchen. (I forgot to open the bathroom cold taps before I opened...

Afternoon all, I've just bought a 1970's Terraced House which has a fairly decent loft space, Unfortunately the Cold Water Tank is between the hatch and the bulk of the attic. Can it be moved to the otherside of the hatch and if so are there any pitfalls I should look for...

Having Investigated the output from the fuses I think you right Ban-all-Sheds. One Fuse feeds my meter whilst the other two feed the biggest T&E I've ever seen before disappearing under the plasterboard. As I'm in a terraced house I suspect these could be the neighbours supply. PS My REC will...

My Thanks to All for the advice. I appear to have three sealed fuses :( so I reckon I'll go down the path of having the REC fit an isolator. As soon as I can find a phone number for someone who doesn't want to sell me Gas, Leccy-tricity, Appliance insurance etc etc. Scottish Power is...

Morning All, I've recently bought a new house which still has a fuse box :shock: So I'm planning on replacing it with a nice shiny Split Load CU. But I've a couple of points I'd appreciated clarification on :?: 1) As I live in Scotland I think Part P doesn't apply yet if...
