We have a how water tank in a airing cupboard outside the bathroom, but we also have a loft just above the bathroom, I’m wondering if it’s possible to move this hot water tank to the loft so I can make use of the cupboard space.
Hi hive mind I'm moving into a new house soon and planning to completely rip out the bathroom and start again. Currently there is a bath with an electric shower. the water is served by a tank (there's one in the loft and one in the cupboard next to the bathroom) i'm assuming there are hot and cold pipes running from the water tank to serve the bath taps? in this case when i do the re-fit is it going to be possible to install a mixer shower (i plan to get rid of the bath entirely for a nice walk in shower/wet room look) or am i forever stuck with electric showers? the tiles and floors will be getting ripped up anyway so i'm assuming it shouldn't be a problem? Thanks all!
How do PVC and PEX pipes compare? Which would last the longest over time?
I cannot find a toilet and sink combination with a right side waste, so was thinking of buying a regular toilet with right side waste and a toilet/sink combination and then combining the toilet with right side waste wtih the the cistern/sink from the other toilet. I know it's a more expensive option but would this work?
Do most modern taps come with anti-limescale protection?
How much would it typically cost to replace a radiator in a house.
Hi, I'm looking for quotes for dishwasher installation. The set-up is simple I think: freestanding unit, within 1m of sink (there's a narrow under-counter cupboard in between) and with an electrical socket within easy reach, but there hasn't been a dishwasher there before (area under the counter where the dishwasher will go is clear -- it's just an empty space currently). I'm in Nottingham, UK. Grateful for any advice.
What depth should I expect a water pipe to be? To clarify, I'm based in the UK.
Can just a toilet cistern be replaced without replacing the toilet bowl as well?
Hi all, I have a small plumbing job to do for which I need to drain the radiators in my property. There are only two radiators, that are fed by a communal boiler, and pass through an immersion heater. I have already identified the isolation valves for the primary flow and the return to my property. I don't have access to the communal boiler, or the specifications for it, and the building manager hasn't responded to my e-mails in months. What I need to know is, how do I isolate my radiator system from the communal boiler in order to drain the radiators and work on the pipes, and then safely open the flow again once the work is done? I have no pressure gauge in my property, is pressure something I need to worry about? Or is it as simple as turning off the flow and return to my property, draining the radiators, doing the work, and then turning them on again and bleeding the radiators until they refill? I'd be very grateful to anyone that can help with this query.
