    Burst water pipe/insurance

    I'm now glad BG never carried out the repairs, as inspecting the complete pipework i can see the plumber made, what i consider a botch of the job, using cheap plastic pipe and plastic push on fittings, onto old copper pipes etc. Why the hell it took him 2 weeks at a cost of £2000 beats me...

    Burst water pipe/insurance

    Quote from dextrous Am so glad for you - and concur with your replacing with copper. So the plastic pipe blew out of the fitting? which means that it was never done up tight enough anyway so the olive didn't grip (assuming you mean that it is a compression and not a pushfit fitting) or a...

    Burst water pipe/insurance

    The property below is council owned...they are not very helpful. I agree, it would have been easier but for long term piece of mind, doing the job myself should make life easier in the future.

    Burst water pipe/insurance

    Thanks for all the advice. It appears from BG, that removing the shower to access the pipework, then refitting is not covered. BG would remove it, but would not refit it, or be held responsible for any damage created by removal. So i today i stripped it out myself. Was quite easy and no damage...

    Burst water pipe/insurance

    Thanks Kev, your a great help. It's a 125 year lease, not 99. Guess it is my problem but there may have been a way out, no harm in asking, quite a few people on here are bright and helpful. Pay for your flight? where do you want to go? on the moon :lol:

    Burst water pipe/insurance

    Hi. I have a problem and do not know where to start. I was greeted home to discover, that the local police had forced entry into my flat to let a council plumber turn off my water, because a burst pipe had flooded the flat below. I own my flat, which is over the top of a local council flat. I...

    Missing child

    Parents??? How can you call these two people parents. Two people that leave three small children ALONE, while they go out for a meal. THEY ARE CRIMINALS, they broke the law, irresponsible and unfit to have children. They must be punished. Any other person would have had their other...

    smoking ban

    That may well be certain peoples opinion, but i will disagree with it. Try the real test, stuff a pipe up your exhaust, run it through a window and see how long you live. I'll do the same, smoking my fags, i bet i will live to see you buried, not the other way round :lol: :lol: :lol:

    smoking ban

    Why are people blaming fags as a bad health risk, especially those driving cars etc, which give off far more health risk fumes. Maybe those do-goodies that don't like inhaling toxic fumes/smoke should give up driving and stop poisoning the pedestrians on the pathways.

    Bunking Off

    Nothing to be be proud of, maybe not, but the company insisted, if employees with contracts were not feeling well, take the time off. That was what was printed in the contract. All other personal reasons also included, such as dental treatment, optician visits, hospital appointments etc. Make...
