Hello, In the next week or so I plan to tile a downstairs WC, using this tile.. https://www.claybrookstudio.co.uk/hayek-hex-jade.html Does anyone have any suggestions for how to finish the edge of the tile on the upmost edge (pointing towards ceiling) it will stop at circa 90cm-110cm from...

Hi all, I'm back at the property tomorrow and will have a go at identifying the flow pipe through a temporary connection. Thank you all for your input it's genuinely amazing!

It won't be a priority visit but they will definitely attend and help locate it. It is their asset. If they can't find it they will end up excavating and fitting a new valve

There are products available that will allow you to install an aladin valve without isolating the water supply, not ideal but worth using if you need to fix it. I'm surprised your plumber didn't do it.

Thank you both, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond. I remember which side the drain off valve was on. Am I right to think the flow would be on the opposite side?

Hello, I have a new radiator to fit that requires the flow feed to enter via a specific valve on the radiator. Sadly I failed to make a note of which pipe is which before draining the system and removing the radiator. Does anyone know of a way to identify the pipe without reattaching the old...

Sorry folks but this is confusing things slightly so I will try and ask a couple of questions to hopefully help understand it better. The house has been like this for 9 years since built and it hasn't been a problem. There is no external air vent for the soil stack, there are two AAVs in the...

It's a detached house, three toilets, this is the downstairs wc. The two upstairs toilets are as I described above. Is the current arrangement not correct?

Sorry CBW we overlapped on our responses. Can I clarify what you mean by anywhere on the system? There are two other toilets, both have air admittance valves in the loft. Would this count? I always thought it would have to be at each entry to the sewer pipe?

So it's not an air admittance valve? Is there not meant to be a way of allowing air pressure to escape?

I am fairly sure it's an air admittance valve. It is sealed tight to the branch socket, I can't move it at all. From what I have read air admittance valves don't need maintenance so I'm assuming it's working as intended

Hello, Sadly I have a foul smell escaping from the wc in my house. I have attached a picture of the current set up. I am about to replace the washing machine stand pipe as it looks in a poor state but is there anything else you can see that may be causing this problem? Or any suggestion what...

Hello, I am looking to slightly extend (no more than 5-10cm) the connection between my soil pipe and a double socket branch. The soil pipe will take a 90mm pipe and the exit from the branch is 110mm. Can anyone suggest somewhere to buy a 'reducer' or alternative product that can help make this...

Thank you both, really appreciate your help

Sorry one final question. Would ardex A46 be suitable?

Hi Johnny and dazlight, Thanks for your replies. I am happy to do whichever is the best solution, can I ask which is better? I am guessing I should use ARDEX but is their sufficient benefit over a sand/cement mix?

Hello, Due to tile damage I have removed Karndean tiles my utility room and WC. When lifting the tiles I have lifted very small parts of the screed, there are approximately 4 patches of no more than 6cmx6cm missing where you can see the concrete floor beneath. The rest of the screed is in...
