does the soil pipe go outside? you could replace with plastic if it's causing so much trouble

i would say wall, but which ever you do first get dust sheets down, to save you having to scrape up adhesive from the floor, either off the tiles or on the wood.

if the edges havn't been covered properly then it will need filling over especially if you can still see it after 2 coats of paint. i wouldn't of thought it would need a whole re-skim just get him to put a fine layer over the edges he's not covered properly, might need treating with PVA first...

Hi all I’m about to fit some stone affect Porcelain wall tiles, just a few questions in relation to these, as ive never fit them before. I wouldn’t have thought so, but does the wall need covering in PVA? As a previous tiler/diyer has already started doing so? And also whats the best way...

baaah plastic bring on the iron and get your arms sawing for a million hours, ok maybe 20 minutes, but its still fun watching sombody go at it whilst grunting away to themselves :D

is it a cast iron stack? you will probably have to cut a section out and replace with a plastic fitting one like this http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/pro.jsp?cId=101624&ts=57907&id=29610 or if it's plastic do the same it will just be easier. im prusming this is for a new toilet and...

i had a beeatch of an air lock when the customer was breathing down my neck convinced i'd chopped off a bit of pipe which was feeding the whole downstairs heating. took me about an hour to sort when i got all the rads going, one was playing up which im determined had never worked. i got home...

their shouldnt be a problem plumbing them all into the same waste pipe, you will just have to ensure the gradient is correct, and their should be enough space behind the units for the waste pipe to run, their usually is, but you will have to check yourself when you put the cupboards up.

it's just the setting time that takes longer, about 72 hours i think, before your supposed to grout. ask in the tiling forum for any little tips, as mentioned as long as the previous tiles are sound then it should be ok, just go around and tap the tiles if they sound hollow, take them off...

where are you i can smell money 8) just kidding A local plumber should be able to offer what you need, someone like dolphin will charge you a fourtune. a lot of plumbers offer a lower charge on straight swap bathrooms, so if it's going where all the previous stuff was then this will...

i think it's a no brainer steady he's been told the best ways which a plumber would approach the job, and doesn't seem to want to do it that way. just do it how u want and admire your effort and stick a laundry basket in front of it :roll:

might need reseating, buy a reseating tool from any diy store or plumbers merchants and follow the instructions. and re-washer and grease.

should of been fined more, bloody idiot. feel sorry for the guy who it happend to, and also the knock on affect it has on all us other plumbers trying to do things right. :roll:

get a double 1200 you should be able to move the pipes enough to match up, just check the height as well.

where is it leaking from?

IT might do for a while, but could get air locks over time, and it will void your warrenty if the pump actually becomes faulty if its not been installed properly.

if your instuctions say it shouldn't be their then you shouldnt install it their, you could try ringing the tech support and see what they suggest, 2 meters is quite a lot though, on pumps ive used it's usually about 300mm below the tank

please see rule number 9 :lol: it all depends, what taps your replaceing them with, how old the currant ones are.. blah blah blah, don't let it sound more daunting than it is. just get a few quotes if you think it might be too much work to try yourself, you shouldn't be paying too much...

if not just use something like http://www.westernforms.com/upload/products/images/en/202fd977-54d3-4dc2-a469-7cc663ea32f0.jpg to screw it into place, or you can get the bath fittings from any merchants, i would of thought once it's sealed and sat in place it won't move much.
