Re the shower - they installed an electric shower for me (their suggestion) but I do not a have circuit for it, they wired it in using some cable from the old shower but the fuse just blows! I don't know all the proper terms but get what should have been done and wasn't. Perhaps this is where...

Sure I hear what you are saying and figured that but the point of me paying him anything was to not leave him out of pocket on the materials while we get this sorted. He'll have lost earnings re the time spent here but he won't have paid anything for that.... Also at the moment I can't say I...

Sorry my message below was meant to be with ref to this - not very good at this!

It is meant to be the 30KW that is what he said it would be - it says 600 on it but a sticker on the top says 630 combi - tbh I am confused, the manuals cover all and I cannot see anything that tells me exactly what mine is ....Well it's not mine yet... things have gone a bit aggro today as I...

Thank you for the responses - I will test it as described over the weekend. It is a Baxi 600 and yes I think now the plumber was a numpty. The boiler vent is right over my back door and the flue is constantly dripping down my back door.... (oh and he drained all water from upstairs through my...

Hoping for some advice I had a combi boiler installed, I only seem to be able to get properly hot water if I have the tap at half flow is this how a combi is expected to work? It is not what i was expecting and I am thinking the boiler is either defective or not powerful enough. I have raised...

No not paid yet but I will - Damage is fixable and not really major. I guess to say it was trashed was just me being upset - I do need to fill holes and repaint the whole hallway and a couple of door frames but at the end of the day it could have been worse (not too sure about the kitchen...

I'm not - though the ceiling comment was a bit flippant.... We didn't notice to start with it was only when we had two baths in a row that we could see there is a leak from the bath waste... and we only looked cos I accused my other half of leaving spilt water on the kitchen floor - when I felt...

it's ok - water coming through the kitchen ceiling a bit of a worry though! :cry:

Fair point - thank you - live and learn I guess (never had anything like this done before) - still think using a customers bedroom seems odd - and why dump all my perfumes, make up mirror etc on the floor???

I engaged someone to refit a bathroom in my house that I live in while I was on holiday when I got back I was really upset to find that my bedroom had been used as a workshop - goodness know what went on (the contents of my dressing table were found on the floor) but I do know plasterboard...

An extract from the quote

Apparently it is Denso flashing The packet even says "lead like" I have sent a cheque for £50.00 and explained my problem re the lack of lead and the fact i simply would not have engaged someone to do something I could do myself for such a cost He has said he will refer me to the...

Ok – so I engaged someone to do something I understood would fix my leaking conservatory and something i could not do myself – ie LEAD work... I ended up with a DIY patch up that I would never have dreamt of paying someone to do. They have now explained that trying to lead under the...

It was the boss that did the quote the job and is now arguing with me....

Sadly the original poster is a she - although I have some fight in me I am not up to taking on a couple of chaps on me own... Thank you for all your advice - I feel more confident in fighting my corner now... unfortunately the people I engaged are from a "reputable company" trading a...
