I moved into a new build around 18 months ago, and I consider myself a competent DIYer. Before I ask the builder to come and look at my plumbing I wanted to get some opinion on an odd issue we've been having. Our showers don't get hot (we've got two of them). It was most noticeable (probably...

Evening. After testing every plug socket in the house and finding them all to be ok, I left the socket tester plugged in to a socket with the switch switched off. I didn't leave it plugged in intentionally, I'm just lazy. Days later, I'm in the kitchen and all of a sudden the socket tester...

Hi! I live in rented accommodation and have an issue with my bath not draining quickly enough. I’ve taken off the trap and checked for blockages and there isn’t anything there. Also pushed a drain cleaner down the waste pipe and nothing obvious in the way. I did notice that the although the...

I have a leak from shower, the leak comes out on the ceiling though, so it's damaged the plasterboard ceiling. I presume there is a pipe running from the showeraomg this ceiling and so the leak could be anywhere from shower onwards. I've confirmed the tray is ok, and resealed again, looked...

Hello, I have a question regarding the safety of my shower. The other day, the power to the shower went off as I was just finishing using it. Then the trip switch for it at the box refused to stay in the on position. I informed my landlord and he said he would take a look, I hoped he would get...

So I have the above boiler and it works fine. I’ve always had to run the bathroom tap on hot to get the shower to go hot. I’ve replaced the diaphragm in the water valve - the top was very rusty so I also replaced the stuffing box. On putting it back together I could see the little rod was...

I got a call from home to say they couldn't turn off the shower.... Its a Grohe Rapido with the shower/bath diverter kit (Allure etc). Is this likely to be the cartridge needing replacing ? It doesn't look too tricky to do from the instructions, but I don't want to waste (quite a lot of) money...

Hello and thank you for reading this message. Our hot water cylinder has no manufacturer name on it so I cannot find a manual. The system is fed directly from the mains with new gas condenser boiler, cylinder, and container above the cylinder looking like a pressure cylinder. The system feeds 2...
