We do - its spelt G-O-O-G-L-E.

That you keep off a forum where you have no applicable qualifications whatever.

"Being rude and abusive in replies to a DIYer is going to drive the DIYer away without the education he or she needs to receive to be aware of the hidden hazards of DIY work." How come you're still here, then? We live in constant hope.....

No, my bad - I was thinking about the straight edges, but as you say, corner bath, it's the curved edge that's revealed...... Clearly, I am missing something today! Okay, as a starter, run your steel tape around the curved edge of the bath. Even better, if you are strong at maths, the...

Perhaps I am missing something here, but if you make your own panels (or even if you buy some) - you have the bath in front of you to measure. Clearly, we have misunderstood what you need to do / you haven't explained yourself well enough. Even a picture would be helpful to get us started -...

Yes, Picasso, but by the time dear Bernard has Googled "What to do if gas can be smelt", he'd be alternative thinking at the gates of St Peter.

I'd bite his hand off at that price.....

If your system is as old as your boiler, there's a chance your cylinder is also one of the poorly insulated types. So one benefit of your plumber whisking it out to fix your blockage would be that he could replace it with a modern well insulated version.

If you let him re-tile and seal up over that remaining pipe, think how you will feel ripping it all up again when (not if) it leaks. Seriously, bite the bullet and get it all removed while it is easily accessible.

As Dan suggests. It might be possible to offer a ballpark figure if you had the good sense to provide your location, as regional variations occur.

Okay, its early (ish) on a Monday morning, and this issue may have disappeared by the time you read this, but - Most poster's signature pics have disappeared. Except, strangely, Dan's and Agile's. Perhaps they have holy status.

I hate to say this, Steely, but I thing Auriol won this one on points. Classy answers with a hint of a barb. I think I'm going to double her thanks count.....

OP, you might find Viakal will descale the head without any dismantling. Unless, of course, you have major internal scaling.

Did I just see a mod tidy a thread and actually explain what he did and why? Wow! Things are looking up....

OP - it may be old fashioned, but bearing in mind the long phone wait time, why not write to them? Put everything down calmly and clearly (as highlighted on this thread) and also make clear that you have opened a charge-back procedure with your c/card company. Then keep a copy, as your c/card...

Pull the plug out.

OP, thank you for taking the time to get back to us and explain the issues. Too many people post on here desperate for (free) advice and then disappear without as much as a thank you. Glad you seem to have got sorted!

Hey, you're a real gent! But my light hearted comments were aimed at the op, though I'm pleased that all comments on here helped you to a solution.

I'm feeling smug here...... Would have liked some appreciation though!

I suspect the poor position of that water pipe forced them to fit the tray proud of the tiles. If so, that will be your first port of call before reinstating the shower tray. As a suggestion, why not just remove one row of tiles, cut and securely fit AquaPanel (or similar) just for that row...
