Fireplace back boiler removal
Just moved into my new house. It’s Oil heating and has an open fire. Im not sure if previous owner used the fire. I’m getting new fireplace installed and have been told to remove back boiler before installation. Is this something a plumber needs to do or is this a specialist job. Does it need to be completely taken out or is it just a matter of disconnecting it?

Overflow in loft tank
Question for any proper plumbers. Daughters loft tank overflow occasionally runs. I have replaced the ball valve & set it well below the overflow. However we notice that every so often it still overflows. I noticed it when i ran hot & cold in kitchen to clean a couple of rollers & today it happened when she ran a bath. Any ideas? Some sort of back flow? Its not all the time. TIA for any ideas / answers.

Outside Tap query
If an outside tap is already fitted with a double check valve in it then will it require any additional valves for the pipework inside for safety/prevent freezing?
Non return tap connector
I want to connect my hot and cold outdoor taps to one hose for washing the car etc . As they dont have an inbuilt non return valve cani just use a hoselock type non return valve on both taps , then connect to hose via a splitter/ y branch without any further plumbing. Also are they required on both taps, or should I have to replace both taps with built in valves?
Mould spreading after a fixed water leak
Can mould spread throughout a home even if there isn’t a water leakage issue? Mould is still spreading in different rooms of the house. It all started with a big leak several years ago but that issue was fixed and I don’t see any other signs of leakage. So is it possible that some of the mould simply survived the initial effort to kill it off and has spread from there even without a renewed problem with water leaking? I know that moisture can cause the problem too. How can I tell if moisture/humidity levels are too high in my home? And how can I rule out the possibility that a new water leak is helping the mould to spread again?
Constantly leaking overflow
Constantly leaking overflow from previous questions asked by others I understand it might be a ball valve not working correctly in water tank can you estimate a cost and time it may poss take to fix
