Hi, my daughter pulled the tap handle up, which I believe to be our Vado Photon mixer tap. Does anyone know if you can replace the handle, does it just push on, or would it have been fixed on? Part of the housing on the handle is snapped, I think if i gled it back on, it wouldn't just keep...

Hi, we had a new shower unit fitted about 5-6 months ago. The seal (or what ever it's classed as) keeps coming out as you can see in the pics. the one on the left doesn't do it, but the one on the right does. I can pop it back in but after about a week, you see it just staring to come out again...

Hi, we have a potterton promax ultra boiler and I often hear a pinging sound from it, when I don't it, it's like contestant every few secs. This is only when the heating has been turned on, and after a while it seems to settle and stop. The pressure is fine at about 1.8 and they're are no...

Hi, Does anyone know if the Potterton Promax Ultra 40 Boiler have a filter to release water, if the pressure it too high? Or do I just have to release some from a radiator? On using it again for the first time this year for heat, the same thing has happened that happened last year. Basically...

Hi, our shower room is around 3m x 2.5m. We always suffered with a lot of steam anyway, but after recently getting a new shower unit installed, it's now gone worse My partner does take longer in the shower, so I know that's the cause, but that's not going to stop lol So I am looking to see if...

Hi, hope this isn't a stupid question. I have the Milano Nero - Corner Walk-In Shower Enclosure with Tray. The tray has what looks like the same waste as in this link: 90mm shower waste I have highlighted in yellow the part G which sits in the shower tray, like a cup before you put the main...

Hi, we recently got a new shower enclosure. Straight away there was an issue with some water getting through the bottom of the glass flap with the supplied shower seal. This led me to getting a longer shower seal, which has helped a lot. Only a little bit is getting through now (not that much to...

Hi, I have a rail that I need about 2-3mm cutting off, and I'm finding really difficult to be that precise with a hacksaw and don't own an electric one. I know b&q have a wood cutting service but does anyone know if they will cut metal as well? And if not ate there any other stores that would...

Hi, we have recently had a new shower enclosure and tray fitted, I called the plumber who fitted it out today to fix a couple of leaks, which he sorted. The one I showed him by the bottom of the door (in one pic you can see the gap I have highlighted) he said wasn't something he could fix and...

Hi, this morning our front door lock has started not locking, below are the pics of it. the highlighted part in yellow seems stuck in. I don't know if my daughter has found a way of setting it so that it stays in, or if it's broke somehow? I have never known a way to keep that part in so that...

I have posted a couple of posts recently, but just asking We have had a new shower enclosure and tray delivered, the tray is an Acrylic capped polymer resin tray. Basically, our old tray was a ceramic and was heavy but was raised on legs. this cracked recently due to weight. The only thing...

Hi, I am wanting to buy a new tray and enclosure due to our old tray cracking. The old tray was a ceramic tray and wasn't on a solid base, it was held up just with the metal prongs it comes with. We are looking at a walk in shower as a whole replacement. I noticed the tray says the material is...

I am getting a new shower enclosure and the plumber has said we need to make sure we have a few spare tiles for the job. Unfortunately, he doesn't do that side of the job so has said before he can do his job, I need to see if i can get hold of the tiles and a tiler to sort the walls before he...

Hi, we have a Mira Vie electric shower, it's 5 years old but hasn't been used that much in that time as it's in the spare room. We have recently been using it more as we are getting work done on our main shower. The past couple of days, there has been intermittent times when it goes very hot for...

Hi, I am in the process of getting a new shower enclosure fitted, theres a particular one the fitter recommended, which does look nice. You can get the door either hinged or sliding, and I wondered if one was better than the other? My thinking is, would a hinged be easier to keep clean and...

Hi, we have a Potterton Pro Max Ultra Combi boiler. We have pretty much always had the radiator set to around 76c I happened to be looking at a site recommended settings and I think it said between 60c – 70c and if higher than this might lead to it not entering condensing mode. So would that be...

Hi, the house I live in is only 5 years old, but I have a few problems in the main top shower. The shower tray has a crack in it, I am a big guy, so I know that is the reason for that. This led to some water going under the tiles and made the carpet just by the door a little wet, this has since...

Hi, we have 2 toilets in our house that are a bit leaky, the one shown in the pic below is by far the worst. We hear it refilling itself regularly and can see the water going down the back of the toilet. The other toilet isn't as bad, but does do it sometimes. These toilets are 5 years old and...

Hi, I bought myself 2 solar powered lights for the side of the house, both pretty bright and seem decent, tested both prior to putting on the wall and both worked fine. Link to the ones i bought below: Link The one that's in the back part of the garden comes on very bright when it gets...

Hi, this is prob a stupid question. I was wondering on my potterton promax ultra boiler, there options to change the temp off the radiators and water separate. If I change the water, does it only do this for taps only or does it also effect the shower? I know you can change the temp obviously...
