Obviously buying cheap, second rate stuff from the continent then.
Ha ha, very funny. Not.
If you mean that customers buy continental stuff, then of course they do. And not all of it is cheap.
And if you mean that continental stuff is available in this country and fitted by some builders, then of course it is. And not all of it is cheap.
But if you mean that I obviously buy and fit continental stuff, then you're wrong on two counts - (a) I don't, and (b) it's not obvious. I buy exclusively McAlpine and Brett Martin soil and waste products.
What's also not obvious is why you haven't encountered such problems
yourself, unless of course you don't do much general plumbing...
