Thank you Each flat does have its own stop cock, there are all located in that hatch next to each other downstairs. I will test my one to ensure it works. Might just do it on a Monday morning when the lockdown is over so I can quickly call someone if anything goes or seems wrong.

Thanks for the responses, looks like there is no way to get to it normally then based on the pictures. Its an old victorian converted to flats so the indoor stopcock is a hatch under the floorboards next to the front door downstairs, covered in cobwebs I believe! That is easy enough. So if the...

Hi everyone Watching random videos online got me thinking about the plumbing in my bathroom, which led me to realise access to the bathtub plumbing is not clear. I don't have any issues right now, the flat downstairs is unoccupied but the owners to pop along occasionally so would have hoped...

Hi there Here is what it looks like now. Are you talking about the bit in red? If so, it's not going into the wall it's capped off. Have only got the washing machine waste pipe that's currently taped up. Just on that what is the best way to keep it up, or better than I currently have it...

Ah fantastic thanks for the advice. Just so I am clear, after undoing everything and removing that tape 1. Wipe sealant inside the grey pipe 2. Wipe sealant onto the white plastic as well (= male?): 3. Push the grey pipe back to how it is now and then reattach the clip. You called it clamp as...

Typical newbie eh! Here they are, thank you.

Sorry here they are. That black tape was my silly attempt to use gorilla tape to seal it. Also feel free to comment on the overflow pipe as I only spend 3.50 so happy to spend time and money to make it better. Thanks

Hi all A bit of help if you don't mind. A bit of background: A friend recently changed my kitchen tap but either ont they knocked the overflow accidently or removed the pipe for easier access. I reconnected it. Anyway it wasn't flush with the sink and the cover moved lot so replaced it as...
