Hi Guys, Just looking for some advice on fitting new shower tray. One wall is plastered, the other tileboard on studs. The tray edges are slightly tapered towards the bottom meaning the top is slightly away from the wall. I have cut away the plaster and board to allow the tray to sit somewhat...

Trevi A2219AA Ideal Standard CLASS fixed shower head. Can anyone tell me how to remove this fixed shower head and replace it with a standard fit hose shower. I’ve not seen one of these before. It has a castellated ring as can be seen in the photo, does that need to be turned first. What tools...

Have a Triton T75 electric shower for just over 2 years and only recently been experiencing issues with the neon lit on off button on the front in that it has begun to require several attempts pressing the button in order to turn the shower off. What could be causing this issue and should it be...

A cluster of 3 led lights, it's good because the bathroom gets very little natural light. But it's zonally conflicted in plan, being sited just outside the outer edge of the bath/shower It could do with going between the the next pair of joists but this would require extending the cables...

hi I have a Creda 950DL 9.5kw shower, approximately 8 years old. About two years ago the medium element light went out and the water ran cold if I had it set to medium. For the past two years it’s only been working on one element, meaning I had to set it to high to get any hot water. Puzzlingly...

I am trying to uninstall a Coram corner-entry shower, so I can re-silicone the joints, which are leaking. Most of the assembly looks pretty straightforward, apart from the bottom outside corner (see photo). How is this kept in place? It is just siliconed in (I can't see any screws). If anyone...

I swapped out my old shower for a 10.8kw one from screwfix. Worked for a while, but at the pull switch it's melting the cables going TO the shower and tripping the breaker. The full run is as follows: About 9-10m of 6mm2 from mcb to a junction box above the switch. 10mm2 from the junction...

Hi I hope someone can help with this. I have a Mira Platinum shower with a Digital Mixer High Pressure/Combi Valve. For a long time now the shower has not worked, I get a small trickle when I turn it on and if I put one of the hot taps in the bath or sink on full whack then the flow increases...

Dear All, I put ad on RatedPeople to renovate my old en-suite + new toilet/shower in Outbuilding. This tradesman came on 12th July and gave quotation + 5* ratings + reviews + previous work photos. I was impressed and he pushed that he can start now only because he is booked till October fully...

I purchased the following Duravit Shower Tray (1500x700): https://www.duravit.co.uk/products/all_series/starck_tubs__showers.com-en.html?product=1616323 I have not yet unboxed it, but from the drawings it looks like the profile on the bottom of the tray is sloped - with a 20mm 'lip' all the...

Hi there, I feel like a real novice here. I'm trying to fit a fixed shower bar, attached to a thin wall. The pipework will be on the other side of the wall. I was looking at the normal wall-plate elbow, but they are designed to be screwed into a wall chasing. With the pipes travelling through...

My question is: can SBR be used to “restore” crumbling plasterboard behind shower tiling? If not, what else would you suggest, please? Tiles have popped up in a smallish area (110 cm 40 cm) of the shower due to water getting in behind them. The standard foil-backed plasterboard has...

Hi all Just installed a new shower! Got the classic problem of a slow draining shower. I removed the trap from the waste (the cup part), and it drains fine. Anyone else have this problem? Thinking if I make the holes in the trap bigger or saw a bit off the pipe that sticks into the trap water...

Hi I've got a leak from a shower waste so I'm going to have to take out a section of the ceiling below (oh joy) to repair. Given the location of the water mark on the ceiling below, I'm reasonably sure that the leak is coming from the trap. The trap in question is one like this type...

Hi, Had an Heritage Glastonbury exposed thermostatic shower - it's a wall-hung mixer tap!! Fitted for quite some time - long enough to be out of warranty!!! Typically, it's now started making a squealing noise while in use. Not always probably every other time it's used. Seems to be a case of...

Weird one and was wondering if anyone can help? I originally booked for an electrician to come and have a look but had to cancel due to being in isolation for 12 weeks (fun). Can anyone give me any ideas on what this might be? Electrician said it could just need a new pull cord switch in the...

Hugely annoying issue which stops this shower from working and I wonder if anyone can help as I have no bath and no other shower :( There is a dual controller for the ceiling fed or hand held parts of this digital shower which has two buttons on it (to select ceiling or hand shower) and...

Hi, We've recently had a Mira Atom Shower installed and we are experiencing a leak at the point where the hose attaches to the shower. The hose does not leak when the shower is off. However, when the unit is off water collects and drips down the side of the hose. Water continues to drip...

Hi All.. I'm hoping someone might be able to help me with this one..... I have a Stuart Turner Monsoon N1.5 Neg Head Pump fitted for a small Shower Room in my Attic. The pump works perfectly, but has never delivered 100% correctly from the time of install which was in 2012. The pump is located...
