If I click on the "Please help the forum out by replying to UNANSWERED THREADS by clicking here.", for the last couple of days it is infested with lots of plumbing and tiling posts, so much so that it's hard to spot unanswered electrical ones! The link used to be just electrical unanswered posts.
Disclaimer: I'm not going to attempt this job myself, I want a professional to do this job properly since I consider it non-trivial and need it safe as poss. The reason I'm posting it in DIY is because I want to understand it properly.
I believe our plumbing is not bonded/earthed. Quite clear...

I know I'm cheating a bit but I'd put money on it that some of you guys know a bit about plumbing.
Basically, the Shower doesn't get that hot. I don't think it has since the boiler( I'm not 100% this was when) was changed. But the Sink and everywhere else does. They paid to have a new shower...
Hi guys, has anyone got any experience of resistances through press fit plumbing fittings?
Just been to a job I did last year which was a bathroom, kitchen, new board etc and now noticing 10k values between chrome rail & the flex outlet earth which I don’t recall seeing when I tested it! It is...

In my first job from school I was eventually worked out as computers took over.
Recent adverts (Google smart thermostats) had me wondering just where this
device installation fits?
Wifi. Electrical. Plumbing connections.
Is this just an example of 'modern' household kit getting smarter...
Firstly I know I’ve posted this in the wrong category, I couldn’t find the right one for some reason. I’m a industrial/domestic electrician, I’m doing a rear extension and loft conversion on my bungalow myself. I’m of course doing the electrics myself and I’m looking at plumbing the CH and...
Thanks to everyone for help with my last question - here's the next one!!
Having our 1930's flat re-wired and re-plumbed. Floors and ceilings are concrete - so wires and pipes are all being chased into walls!
Radiators are currently set very high and have asked for them to be lowered to a...

I had a new bathroom fitted about 4 years ago, very nice and there weren't any electrical woks, now that's out of the way, down to my dilemma, the curved glass shower screen has a seal on the bottom, which unfortunately has, due to constant use, decided to fall apart.
Now before you all start, I...
I just moved into rented accommodation and found this (see pic) under my sink. When I was last in the electrical business 30 or so years ago it would have been classed as a horror show waiting to happen, thoughts?
Was having a bit of a sort out today and just realised I have lost all my plumbing gear like compression fittings and rad valves etc
I only keep them for odd jobs but had a nice little selection building
Must have thrown them out by mistake
Gutted :(
Recently had an extension done. Noticed electrician had run mains electrical cables right on to the hot feed from the boiler which gets very hot. Is this a safety issue? Can the insulation stand the heat for hours on end?..
I have an economy 7 boiler which has two temperature controlled heating elements. After 15 years they were replaced as they had started to heat inefficiently. Unsurprisingly they were covered in limescale.
I replaced them with new elements. The off peak element was placed on just over 50...
is it possible for a mixer tap to be plumbed incorrectly? i turned it to "cold" and it "emptied the system" after closing what i assumed to be the stop cock into the property
