    Does my immersion element need replacing?

    I'd appreciate some guidance on whether my thinking is right: Direct feed, immersion-only tank, probably about 15 years old. Lower, side-entry element stopped heating the water at night. Testing showed that the timer was no longer switching the relay, so I replaced it. Since then, it has not...

    Replacing combi boiler central heating pump - fair cost

    Hello, recently my central heating stopped working and an engineer diagnosed the problem as being that the electrical connection point on the heating pump has partially melted, presumably due to the connection being poor. The pump is inside the boiler body. He recommended replacing the pump and...

    Replacing 7 radiators

    As part of my house renovation I have decided that I will replace all the old type 11 radiators with type 21 double panel plus radiators. So the pipework for each radiator will have to be moved slightly - all the radiators are remaining in the same place. Currently all the ceilings are...

    Tub/Shower Faucet Eventually Starts Dripping Again After Replacing Valve Stems

    Ah, the joys of older home ownership (1974). We thought our major plumbing issues were dealt with when we got rid of our orangeburg sewer line and our rusted out galvanized supply line to our house. It's still galvanized under the house, but we live in a very dry climate and the pipes/joints...

    Plumbing Newbie - Replacing Copper Pipes

    We've not yet ruled out getting a plumber in but this seems a small job, suitable for diy'er? We have 1930's house and quite old plumbing, hopefully not that old. The pics should help show the task in hand. It's pipework under the sink, hot and cold feeding up to the basin with spurs off for...

    My kitchen tap is broken and needs replacing. Can anyone help me out but explaining what I need to do in order to remove it? I've removed the bolt attaching the tap itself to the sink, so it's loose at the top. Underneath, I can see the hot and cold plus the feed for the washing machine. There...

    Replacing the type of plug

    Hello. Total novice here. We have a pop-up thumb plug (think that's the name, following a Google search - photo attached). It was here when we moved in (I personally would have chosen a standard plug type, I find these pop up ones faffy). My husband pulled this out today to declog the sink and...

    replacing a wall hanging toilet

    I have a problem with 2 toilets fitted to a wall with the cisterns in the wall. I would like to replace them with standard toilets but the waste pipe seems too high (around 60mm above a standard toilet) and I don't have enough slope on the waste pipe to lower it. Are there any toilets out there...

    Replacing Concealed Thermostatic Showers

    Just wondering if there was a better way than smashing tiles, wall etc. (cartridges are corroded in and wont come out) If those showers were sold with a bigger plate to allow access to joints the job would be much much easier. How do you guys approach these?

    Can't remove air from central heating after replacing pump

    I have what I believe is a fairly standard open vented Y-plan heating system with a header tank and cold water tank in the loft (I have attached a picture of what I have worked out). I am not a plumber, but I am confident with pipe work - normally I would call a plumber but with the current...

    Replacing exposed 3/4" 143mm shower valves

    My shower valve is playing up and the easier thing might be to replace it. Most seem to have a pipe centre distance of 150mm specified, but mine seems to be 143mm. Is it likely that a 150mm will be adjustable and fit? I notice some have a range but the ones I've seen that do are quite...
