Hi, this is my first post, it might be a bit long because im trying to put all the info which could be relevant but i'll try to avoid waffling on too much!
Anway we're having an extension built on the back of our house (or I should say have had, its pretty much finished) and during the process...

First time poster here:)
Trying to be as brief as possible : Glow worm Flexicom 30 Cx boiler .
Moved into home March 2017. Got boiler checked by local heating co. The engineer made a good impression .
Around jan2018 , boiler started playing up in the coldest weather for years .
18/4/18...
Hi, I have just noticed that the hot and cold pipes (and the gas) run to close to each other as shown in the attached photos.
This the 1st floor joists.
Blue: mains cold to boiler and kitchen downstairs
Red: hot from boiler to 1st floor bathroom
Yellow: gas to boiler
The rest are...
Good evening all.
I currently have my gas meter on one corner of my property (front left), which serves a boiler in the garage which is on the diagonally furthest corner of the house from the meter (rear right). The pipework connecting the two is 28mm/22mm copper which is on the external walls...
Had a call today requesting quote for 1 full bath upgrade and full heating 6 rads plus boiler in same house.
Arranged to pop over to quote however first she said that she has had a quote already and could i beat it .
To supply and fit new bathroom including taking out old bath and converting to...
Hi....I'm not a plumber but have fitted a few taps and waste water pipes. Even though I've done that, I get confused when I look at the Screwfix catalogue that say for example "Flexible Tap Connectors".
They give the following...
"Dia - 15mm, BSP 3/8 " and
"Dia - 15mm, BSP 1/2 "
I think the...
I seem to be getting ridiculous callouts nowadays.
Today I finally got to a leaking stopcock job that the house owner has been chasing me to fix.
No big deal, - just needed cleaned up, greased and packing nut tightened back in.
Odd thing is plumbers have just finished installing a new bathroom...
Hi All.
For those who read my LLH thread, this question is because I'm weighing up whether my problems are just down to it being a Vaillant boiler.
Quick background - I have 3 heating zones (u/s, d/s and hw). Any individual zone works fine. Multiple zones work fine when running together. The...
I need a new combi boiler for a modest 2 bed flat, 1 bathroom. Priority is good build quality, reliability and after sales service. What's better between the Worcester-Bosch CDi and Si models? Or should I consider another make? Opinions very valuable at this point - need to decide! Thanks.
So, as I'm sorting out things like skirting boards at home, I thought I'd let the Everest rep quote on a new front door as the old PVC one has mostly had it.
In excess of £3000 for a timber one.
£1600 for a composite one.
Since door is on a porch and there is no tangible benefit in it being...

Hi.
We've just had a loft conversion done with a bedroom and shower room with a rad in each room. The rads are fed from 15mm pipes to bathroom rad on floor below and apart from tails to both rads and from existing copper pipe all new pipes are 15mm plastic with JG push fit connectors. Found the...
I am adding a path at the side of my drive. Doing the work myself but need to hire a whacked plate to compact the sub base.
Thought I would post on freeindex to see if someone with a whacker would come and do it.
Whacker hire for 24hrs £30
How much do you think?
I have a customer with an open vent s-plan system. One of the 2 port valves is on the flow and the other on the return!!! whats that about? Never seen this before, both Heating & HW seem to be working. The boiler needs replacing & I really want to understand how the system works before doing any...
Does anyone use any of the above and could I please ask of your experience with them.
Worked for a company for many years and latley been putting a lot of effort into starting something of my own up. Been relatively busy but by no means in a position to quit work just yet. Been looking at...
I was looking through my phone today, trying to clear up my storage and came across a few ringers. What pictures do you have on your phone that you don't mind sharing?
Possibly both a plumbing and paving query.
See photos:

The single black pipe is my kitchen sink and the other 2 black pipes are my dishwasher and boiler.

Hi, I've recently had a new Worcester 29cdi classic combi installed with a Nest thermostat and would like to know if a weather compensator can be compatible with the Nest.
