    How can we find/fix leaking pipes when the pipes are set within a concrete floor

    We have had a long term problem with damp in our bungalow which exacerbated when we changed from the use of a system boiler (with pressure only from a tank in the roof of our bungalow) to a combi boiler (with full mains pressure) and a major leak was then found and dealt with. (This leak had...

    Installed when the house was built in the 70's. Does anyone know where can I get a replacement cover ? (or gasket) ? It's not the same shape as ones I've seen online with 4 fixing screws, it has a centre bolt to remove the cover. Cheers

    Leaking toilet

    Hi, Really hoping someone could advice me on a leak issue I'm having. We have a macerator type set up for our ensuite, that joins to the main soil pipe in the loft. The connector where the pipe from macerator meets the main soil pipe is not water tight, and therefore excess water is flowing...

    Shower leaking from multiple places!

    Hi all I have a Bristan shower fitted which is leaking from the bar valve and from the removable shower head. On the bar valve the leak seems to be coming from the white seal.

    Looks like the bath plug is leaking...

    It looks as though the bath plug is leaking even though the water is dripping further up the basin as it were (i.e. in the direction of the overflow pipe/towards the camera) and not from the area immediately around the plug. I'm not too confident in replacing the plug (visions of flooding after...
