Good morning.

I knew it would come with US fittings but researched before purchasing and saw that NTP to BSP adaptors were fairly readily available so thought that connection to the cold feed to...
I have to connect the UPVC pipe to the ground. There's a connection of sorts there already. The rubber gasket there has perished but I don't seem to easily find a replacement.
Even if I did, the old UPVC pipe I have doesn't fit tightly in there and presumably never did.
My question is, does...
Hi Everyone
Hopefully a simple question here.
I am installing three new water feeds to different locations around the outside of the property. One to the garage, one to the pond and another to the garden.
I have two choices. I can pick up the incoming water feed before it enters the property or...
I would be extremely grateful to receive advice how to attach a hose to an automatic water trough (for horses) in a field, that has no tap, it has a float - like in a toilet, that is in the water and refills automatically when the water goes down
I'm struggling to post any words here. Apologies for the brevity - can anything be done with the attached to save me having to replace the full flexi-pipe which is inaccessible at the far end? Thanks

Hi all, is there a way to connect a new toilet into an existing horizontal run? The problem is, due to the levels it can only connect horizontally and not from the top of the pipe. Is it ok to use a standard branch connector in this way?

I purchased a SharkBite ice maker connection kit. The kit came with an adapter to connect 1/4" (3/8" OD) PEX to 1/4" compression fitting. I tried to attach the adapter to a needle-style valve as shown in the photo and the compression connection leaked. Has anyone used this adapter part...
Hello, we just moved into a house in the Netherlands and are struggling to fit our washing machine. We have a Samsung washing machine with the standard 1/2 in inlet pipe. The wall has a fitting I've never seen before which after research is a flamco safetap (Google Image Result for...
Hi, Please can someone advise me on the correct replacement parts to re-connect my gas hob? It is an Indesit PIM 640 AS fitted gas hob and the manual states the fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cyclindrical male attachment. Do I also need to order a fibre washer or o-ring for this? If so which size...

I have a bathroom basin that had a flexible waste pipe leading from the sink into a fixed waste water pipe. The Flexi-pipe had perished away and I can not find a replacement to fix onto the basin to the waste pipe. I have tried numerous flex pipes but none fit onto both. Im probably being stupid...
I have recently moved house and would like to move a radiator from a side wall, to one below the window as is more pleasing to the eye.
I understand why it was not placed under the window, as my house is old and has concrete flooring so would be difficult when it comes to the pipework...

Hi. I'm installing a new soil stack for a new upstairs bathroom. For the toilet, where the 110mm pipe comes through the wall to outside, which pipe fitting do I use? It has to come out and then across to the soil stack, but all the branches and bends are 92.5 or 87.5 degrees but surely it needs...
