I have went to install my shower valve and the pipes are 5mm out the wall is tiled now and the pipe chase was filled so there is no play on the pipes. Is there anything out there that I use to adapt and offset one of the pipes or is this going to have to be a smash the tiles fix?

@EFLImpudence That sorted it! Thanks again!

Bumping this as I replaced this unit back in September, but I recently have tried to adjust the overrun timer (as per the manufacturers instructions) to reduce the time but now the overrun does not stop when the light has switched off. I have to switch off the lights at the MCB to stop it. To be...

The ducting is some sort of galvanised steel flat channel duct. I'm assuming it's because it's in flat and the void is so /narrow. I'm wondering if I can get some sort of adaptor from flat to a round 100mm duct to give me more options extractor-wise

Hi all, I've recently bought a flat and have inherited a bathroom equipped with an old approx 25 year old Silavent centrifugal extractor fan which is not currently working. Also could clearly do with a clean! I just wanted to check if (by my pictures), the wiring to the light is correct. My...

Thanks again been a great help! :)

Forgot to add that the circuit is RCD protected.

Due to access and location. It it possible to replace a spurred socket with an unswitched FCU, then run a socket, a switched FCU (to supply a cooker hood) and another two sockets in parallel. Kitchen ring is on a 32amp MCB, 2.5mm (and currently has 6 double sockets (including the one that's...

Hi Freddo. No just just a standard timber structure with clay roof tiles.

Thanks EFL. Yes there is a loft above. The lighting circuit is in steel conduit so a bit more work involved to take a feed from. The water heater FCU is almost in the perfect position for a switch and to run a feed from to the lights.

I am hoping to install two of the below ceiling lamps as additional lighting in my bedroom (as an alternative to bedside lamps). I am installing them next to where the old water heater was situated. The FCU that supplied the water heater is still in place and I was wondering if it would be...

Hi Guys Just looking for a bit of advice on moving a socket. In my hallway there was a 2m x 1m recess in which I have built a partition wall across to create a walk in cupboard. At the back of the recess is a double socket which I would like to move on to the front of the new partition wall...

[/url] How about using the same door for the bathroom but putting a frosted glass window in it?

Thanks again. Problem is when the council re-wired the house they removed one of the batten holders, plastered the hole. Leaving one fitting which is at one end of the bathroom so it doesn't give out a good proportion of light!

Thanks RF ! Seems to be quite a struggle to find a decent looking bathroom fitting that gives off good light!

Hi Folks Hoping for a bit of advice. A relative of mine has asked me to fit a fluorescent batten light in her bathroom. I am competent enough to do so having fitted quite a few in the past. My question is however is this style of fitting suitable for a bathroom? The reason she wants it is...
