How do you measure a radiators width. Do you measure it from edge to edge of the manin body of the radiator or do you include the pieces at either end where it joins the to the heating pipes?

The set up we have doesn't use an AAV. We just have pipe venting. The new toilet is a close coupled cistern and pan and the location of the soil pipe was for an older toilet. This means that the waste pipe from the old pan would have been farther out from the wall. This means that for the...

We recently just installed a close coupled toilet with internal overflow. Over the last week we've noticed something a bit weird. When we flush the toilet the water will settle at the level it's meant to be at in the pan. If we come back about an hour later the water level in the pan has...

The brother in-law, who is a joiner, and myself "bodged" together a frame last night and over the course or 4 1/2 hours we managed to get all the parts of the frame inserted along the long side of the bath and then sealed it again with silicone on the top side and expanding foam on the lower...

Isn't it always great how you find these forums when you discover a problem after your DIY has just been completed!! Anyhow to cut a long story short we've just finished a complet gutting of our old bathroom and installed a new suite, tiles, and fixtures. I used the new bath for the first...

We've just had a close coupled toilet fitted today with internal overflow. I'm very impressed with this over our old toilet. The only problem I have is that at the minute it seems to be overflowing through the internal overflow all the time. I suppose I'll have to get the plumber back, but...
