Hi
We have a concealed shower that has seized and no longer in production to get replacement parts. I have contacted a few plumbers over the last few months and none are interested in doing the job so I need to do this myself.
I do not want to damage the tiles from the front and we can easily access the unit from the rear as it is in a stud wall which I can replaster once sorted.
I am thinking take the old one out from the back, find a similar one with outlets and valves in similar locations and a faceplate big enough to cover any damage where the valves come through.
My question/concern is, do you think this is doable as all the plumbers I contact seem to run a mile?
Has anyone else done this successfully or is there an a major flaw in my plan?
