Many thanks!

Thanks for the advice. So even though it's inside the house, since the access is from outside it's considered an outdoor toilet?

Thanks, yes the plan is to remove it completely though and have a larger kitchen, but it seems there are regulations about removing downstairs toilets without replacing them, so was just wondering if anyone had any knowledge about how that would apply here.

We want to remove a downstairs toilet without replacing it as it's a 2-bed house with an upstairs bathroom. I realise the legalities of this have been discussed but this toilet is a little different as it's in a corner of the kitchen but the door is on the outside of the building and is accessed...

It's a double, so I guess that's why they did it?

Thanks, it might be because it's the socket our cooker is plugged into, therefore it has a switch above the counter while the socket is beneath...

Great, thanks!

I have noticed that in our kitchen we have a socket on a spur and I can't find an example like it anywhere online, so just wanted to check if it's normal. To explain, there is an FCU coming off the cables of the circuit, not from a socket or a junction box. Inside the FCU there are 2 cables...

muggles: I have checked and yes we have that form signed and completed. Unfortunately, for one thing I can see that the temp he filled in for the return on the central heating couldn't possibly be accurate (says 67 but it was, and still is, closer to room temp)... I should have done more...

Thanks, and yes I'm sure there are two sides to this, but he is a stressful and stressed out person unlike anyone I have met before! We had paid him a lot of money to remove the radiators and manually flush them (on his recommendation), which is why I'm blaming those leaking valves on him. I...

Just wondering, does an engineer have a responsibility to make sure the heating system is cleaned out properly when fitting a new boiler? Ours left us with a sludged up system, heating barely functioning, radiator valves leaking, etc, which has of course led to boiler parts failing. Engineer...

Ahh of course, thanks!

So, taking the advice here we removed the radiators and temporarily joined the valves with plastic pipe. When the drain is open and we turn on the water it runs through, however when we re-pressurise the system and add the cleaner, the water doesn't seem to be circulating through 3 of the...

Thanks a lot all, that's really helpful!

We are planning to replace all our radiators (seven) and have a few questions: Before doing so would it make sense to use Sentinel x400 or similar to clean out the system, and if so can we disconnect the old rads first so that the cleaner only goes around the pipes? Also, is it advisable to...
