I installed a new shower tray in my bathroom. I think the waste on the tray is leaking. There is a fair amount of play in the waste. Is it a proper tool I can use to tighten the waste up?

Hi what do you mean the reversed connected mixer does not bode well? What difference does it make? Do you mean it doesn't give a lot of confidence in the installer know what he was doing?

I don't have a combi boiler. I have a small water heater beside the sink. I attached an image of what I mean to the original post. The isolation valves under the sink are fully in the vertical position ( the one you need a flat head screwdriver to operate) I have attached a picture of the label

Hi I am having a problem with the mixer tap in the bathroom. When I turn the tap all the way to the right I should get hot water (pipes are reversed) but instead I get no water at all. When I turn the tap slightly to the right I get slightly warm water. If I turn the tap all the way to the...
