    Intermittent hot water from taps

    Opening any of the hot taps whichever room they're in should activate the dhw, if not then a gas engineer is needed as the boiler needs attention. I'm guessing you're not a gsr otherwise you'd have already fixed this problem. No offence intended but it sounds like it's time to pass the baton on...

    Aussie DIY

    I had a plumbing issue at my house the other day. After hours of looking for a decent plumber I happened across the website of JC plumbing, it seemed just the ticket so I phoned him and he was round to sort the problem out in no time. What a thoroughly nice bloke he was too, and good looking...

    DIYer worried about his DIY plumbing

    replacement headgear for 'very old' stopcock

    Hi guys, wondering if any of you know a decent stockist for the above? The stoptap is half buried in a wall and lead both sides and the handle has snapped off.

    Question about a drain smell

    Hi guys, My mum's had a plumbing issue in her house that has gone on for a year or two. Every so often, maybe every 2 weeks or so, when she empties the bowl in the kitchen, or runs the tap in the kitchen she can smell the drains in her living room. There's a solid floor in the kitchen and the...

    Tool for stubborn tap head gear?

    As the title suggests. Anyone know of a decent tool for removing a really stubborn tap head gear? I've usually managed to crack them after a while but one job a couple of months ago had me beat, the customer had these really old taps and he loved them and I was close to threading the 'nut' part...
