Hi All, Fitting a concealed shower and currently fitting the handheld part but the thread appears too short? I’ve pictured what I’m playing with, what am I doing wrong!? I can get away with just about 2 turns once the tiles and adhesive is on, to me that doesn’t sound sufficient? Any help is...

Thanks for your input everyone. What I thought to be the easiest job turned into a ball ache. I’ve never done under sink work and will try to avoid it in the future! Anyway, here is my solution for now, it works.

The challenge I have is getting the pipework to marry up correctly. I think I might have a solution: One of these: https://www.screwfix.com/p/mcalpine-flexcon4-flexible-connector-white-40-x-157-242mm/86386 to be fitted in between both of the exposed pipework here:

Tried that Mottie but it’s still too long.

I’d love to, but is that the only way I can resolve my issue!?

Thanks Mottie - I picked one of these up to start off with but unfortunately it’s “longer” than the existing one and does not line up with the other pipework.

Hi Everyone, I have purchased a spigot kit (this one) whereby I “drill” into the existing pipework to enable me to feed out my washing machine waste. I’m a little unsure as to where I’m best to fit this kit on my pipework. I assume where I have highlighted in orange below would be ideal but...

I should have listened to you in the first place Wayners!

Just to update this topic, I have found this contraption that allows me to retain my current pipework but "bore" out a hole and fit a drain out in my existing pipework. https://www.screwfix.com/p/washing-machine-drain-out-kit/75883 If you were me, based on the photo in my first post, where...

Hi All, Scratching my head with this. I have got this far - and have 2 options (see photos below). Which is easiest resolved and what would I need to buy to resolve?! Or

Thanks for the responses all, seems fairly straightforward.

Hi All I’m planning on fitting a dishwasher over the next week or so and keen to know which contraption I need in order to plumb in the waste outlet. With so many options I’m keen to avoid over engineering something which is probably not needed and can be done for less than a tenner...

Many thanks Bonni!

Hi All, Planning to fit a dishwasher over the week so just mapping out my options under the sink. Ideally I wanted to tee off the washing machine inlet below but wanted to know what this box is attached to the hose? Any ideas!?

Thanks - I’m going to repoint the outside in the areas that are most affected, and then slurry the inside first few courses.

Thanks for all of your help, much appreciated.

Thanks for all your help. I’ll be doing that at some point and will report back. Thanks once again!

Thanks Blup - I’m planning to repoint along the lower level, and then slurry the external and internal first few courses, does that sound acceptable!?

Thanks for your input, that sounds ideal. I’ll do some research on that, sounds fairly simple.

That stuff appears to be what I’m looking for, assuming it’s as good as his makes out! Thanks for that, I reckon that’s a winner at the moment. Here is the door: My thoughts exactly, but I honestly see no trace. From what I can see, it could do with some repointing which would clearly...
