I don't know how deep it is.. he cut the joists to fit in five pipes . We know how it was before. Four pipes were on top of the floor board not between the joists. He is saying his pipework is prefect , he didn't cut any joists and the bathroom is safe. Regards

Hey there, I am afraid this plumber is not taking any responsibility for his actions. He is saying that the cut into the joists was already there and he did not cut even a little piece so it is not his problem . His work is fine . Also he is expecting us to know about Joists and pipework. We...

We had no idea, only learning about these things now. We did ask him whether we should take the legs for the shower and plinth which were a part of the kit . He told us no as he has better way to install.. we just trusted him to do a good job. Yes, it does look nice but the safety should have...

We have contacted a structural engineer and like you professionals he has also confirmed that "there is a severe damage to the joists.".. What props can we use from the kitchen ceiling? Regards,

Also, I have asked him the joists size, he has only given me the size of the pipes. I guess he doesn't know, I am afraid.

Thank you all for your advice. We are concerned but also glad that we have these photo which we only took to show the progress to our family and I only asked here due to this noise. We have been told by a joiner to contact a structural engineer first and show them the photos and then the...

Here is the recoding of the sound. I am afraid these are too loud to be ignored. The plumber is saying the following... The size of depth is 42 mm for waste pipe and 25 mm for copper pipes in the joists... I understand that the joists is more of the concerns now. Will contact a local joiner...

Can I send a video of the noise here..? I have tried twice but failed .

Thank you, we like his tiling and finish but what happened underneath and this noise. I guess he is not good at plumbing. The noise has been coming from the pipes the day he put them . He kept saying it was the boiler and he would fix it. We just trusted his words ... This morning he said it is...

Hey all, Thank you for your reply. On the left is the shower cubicle 1000x800mm with 8mm thick glass. The noise is mostly coming from the sink area. Please see attached pic. One of the waste pipe running into the wall on the left was there before so he left it there. It does not do anything...

Thank you so much for the info. Yes, it is day and night. Night times is the worst so have to clase two sets of doors to sleep as it seems pretty loud at night .☹️ We are learning the hard way . Thanks and regards,

Ok, bathroom is all tiled and shower cubicle on top of the it. The plumber is saying his pipework is ok . It's only waste pipe. He will try to move the waste pipe from the top so that it is not touching the vanity unit.. I don't think it is that. We are in Caversham, do you live near by ? Can...

Thank you for your reply. These are ticking, clicking and like someone is nailing in the wall. It's a first floor. The kitchen is below the bathroom. What can we do now? What are our options now? Thanks and regards, Nisha

Hey there, We have recently redone our bathroom and ever since the plumber changed the water pipes, they are making noise. The noise comes and goes. We have some photos of the pipe work, taken out of interest. The plumber said he did not put any insulation around the pipes but did pin them down...
