I have a insurance job to try and rescue a poorly installed quad shower the customer wants to save the tiling if possible and has a few spare so fingers crossed it may work , the loss adjuster allowed em £1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

Start wetroom on Monday. On the way home monday night fix a leaky pump and look at a bath out walk in shower in. Tuesday night pump up ev on an unvented followed by changing a basin mixer and looking a bathroom refit. Wednesday night fix a leaking toilet on way home.

Oh plus tomorrow moving 3 rads on a biomass system.

Roll on christmas.

Photos to follow 👍👍
