I visited today and the inside of the wall has very little signs of damage. Im going to start the repairs on the exterior of the wall as soon as possible, which I THINK might be possibly caused by a lot of moss build up on the path way alongside the wall and then just over time this creeping up...

Think we are finally there and I feel confident I know what to do now. Appreciate your patience with me and my never ending questions Martygturner!

In theory then, if the hole outside comes to a decent place that works then I could add the tee (speed fit equal tee) in place of the washing machine valve and then just move the washing machine valve along and use the 3rd tee to go out the wall?

Should I replace the damaged bricks at the base before adding the Thompsons water seal?

If I know roughly where the pipe will be going in and there are no services in that area could I go from outside and drill in? Last couple of questions I promise! The pipe has earthing, does that mean I need to turn off the electrics whilst fitting the tap? Can the tee come off any run of...

Thank you, that’s perfect. I’m thinking copper compression fittings throughout as I guess i’m going to have to run copper through the wall anyway and was thinking of using a hose union back plate for a nice finish on the outside and to fit the tap to. If I was running a hose using back plate...

Yeah kitchen is the closest point to the cold water feed and no downstairs loo. Looking at the photos where would it be best to run it off of and what would I need?

Also can I still run an outside tap with the same items I suggested in my original post and fit a tee valve instead of the isolator that already feeds into the washing machine?

Thank you, that’s exactly why I was after. Maybe I will try and work around the permanent fixtures outside after all. Any tips for an outside tap if I can go down that route after all?

True but has to be above the height of washer, needs a filter and wouldn’t have the same pressure as a tap. Any reason my original plan of an internal tap would not work?

I appreciate the reply but I should have also made it clear that I can’t have an outside tap due to what’s on the other side of the wall, it’s a small space at the front of the house and I have things in front of the wall that can’t be moved/worked around. Thats why I was going for the inside...

Every days a school day (y)

Howdy! In my kitchen under the sink I would like to install a tap for using a power washer. The reason I’m thinking of adding it under the sink rather than outside is that it saves some of the work cutting and running it all through the outside wall. Also wouldn’t need to worry about the pipe...

Thanks for the quick response. Any prep I need to do before adding the water seal or just whack it on?

Howdy! So my mums house has a brick wall around her back garden. The wall has been there some 30 odd years and is now starting to show signs of crumbling and cracking as you can see from the photos. On the inside of the garden wall a patio has been laid on what looks like another patio (as...
