I have a bathroom mixer tap that is part of an inset sink built into the bathroom worktop. When you turn the taps the whole tap body twists round. The only access to the internal workings appear to be through a worktop access point to a toilet cistern that is adjacent to it (but even then it's...

Ah sorry, I should make this clearer. The leak only occurs when the shower is on. When the shower is off there is no leakage. I naturally assumed that when the shower was on, the pump was drawing water up and so there would be a flow available to leak. Is this leakage normal then? It hasn't...

Thanks, I tried this but as I mentioned before they were as tight as they could be. Still seems to be some water dribbling out, though now am not sure it is only the inlet pipe connector. Are there any seals within these?

I have a Triton T80Si electric shower and have noticed that it has developed a leak (cold water running down shower wall).

Hope someone can assist with this one. I have a Potterton Puma 100e Combi Boiler and the HW output is fine. However the CH seems to be erratic. When it is On the 'Flame' light will click on a few seconds later but only stays on for a few seconds before going out again. Throughout the next while...

Thanks...will look out for it.

This might sound vague but... Whilst redecorating a room recently I noticed there was cracks in the plaster of one of the corners. On closer inspection I found that this was some sort of 'plaster' type strip that is used to fill in the corners(it ran from a few mm on one wall to a few on the...
