Yes a little annoying. And the stopcock is amongst them too so a few limitations that I hadn't anticipated!

That would have been the long term plan however because of the layout of the flat, although the water tank has gone, there are still some existing pipes! So even if it was taken out I'm not sure what I would be able to do!

Following a boiler change, I now have the cupboard space to use where the water tank previously was. This is located in my bedroom! I would like to make it more attractive on the outside (as well as inside!). Basically there is a vile door that looks as though the previous owners cut in half...

There are a few posts online saying that these are prone to leak in use from the unit so the chances are its probably the case... Will have to upload a pic when I get back from work. Tried mould cleaner on it but its been left to rot for years by the look of it :-s

Ok. I moved in not so long ago. There is an Aqualisa shower leaking from control unit. I'm guessing it needs a new cartridge. The problem is it looks as though it has been leaking for a while as it is covered in black mould which I can't get off! This is on the control unit by the way...

I believe this has been done. Is it something to be concerned about? I don't mind a bit of dirt being thrown out of the plug hole as long as something worse isnt brewing...

Did my first machine load since new boiler and noticed that residue had been pushed up the kitchen sink which I can only assume is related because the sink was clean before I turned on the washing machine. Is this normal?

That's what will happen but I need to have one here. I think I may buy some nets and whack them up to try and keep some privacy!

It's very small

Lol, nope, I know what I want!! Lol. Well I don't want the satin finish on the chrome... Nice and shiny will do me fine :D

Yes sorry should have said about diameter. Smaller poles are more suited to pleated curtains. Eyelets would be a bit odd on a skinny rod. I did see it could be cut but 100 is rather a lot of wastage.

That's a 19mm diameter - too thin for eyelet. Also it's not shiny and comes in 300 length.

I bought silicone to go around bath etc can that be used for edging around floor tiles or does it need to be grout specifically?

Anyone??? Help!!

Hello, sorry wasn't sure if any of the categories were relevant to this post, but I need urgent advice because this has been driving me crazy for a few weeks now! Basically I need a 2m chrome curtain pole set. Well 2 actually! A first glance this should be easy. Spoke to B&Q and they are...

Ok, not long moved in and did want to have bathroom completely ripped out but after having a new fitted boiler, electrical work, and work on windows budget is not looking too healthy! For the short term I was thinking of keeping existing bath, tiles, floor and just getting rid of taps, shower...

Yeah it doesnt bother me really. The only slight concern I have is what happens if I want to change the tiling in the future...

Yeah, I'm thinking I may need a man that can! Ha ha.

Oh thats great!! I was hoping it was usual procedure but had a pang of "have they taken a short cut!". I'm sure they've done everything as they should!!

Just a quick question... the boiler people put the pipes over existing tiles... it this normal procedure or should the tiles have been removed before installation?
