Noisy toilet / taps
My toilet sounds like a fog horn when you flush it. The kitchen and bathroom taps make a noise when u turn them on. And there is groaning coming from some where in the pipes in the bathroom. I don’t know what it could be.
Toilet keeps overflowing
Just had a new toilet installed but It keeps overflowing. Im guessing there is a part missing or that needs adjusting? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Are plastic pipes suitable to use with radiators?
Hi all, We’ve had some pipes replaced recently by a professional plumber to resolve some problems. Although, the issues have been resolved, I’ve since noticed the pipes themselves are plastic – I have some concern about this as these are pipes connected directly and indirectly to the radiators and the boiler. Given the heat that could be involved, this is a concern to me – is this normal to have plastic piping used like this nowadays?
Lead or Copper Pipes
Hi I'm trying to establish whether or not I have lead pipes in a property which was built in Scotland around 1970. The stop valve inside the property appears to have copper piping coming up from the outside therefore can I assume this will be the same type of piping all the way to the boundary where Scottish Power would maintain the rest of the network? Thanks

What is the best option to seal between a bath and wall tiles?
Hi all I have a bath fitted to a corner with tiles to the joining walls, where the sealant material which joins the bath edge and the tiles seems to be peeling away. I don’t want to leave this issue too long for the risks of leaking as it wears away further. What would be the best sealant product I could use to replace this current material that’s peeling away? If there are any other products or ideas anyone recommends, please let me know.
Under sink leak
I have a random leak under the sink. The traps have been replaced twice and we can go days without any leaks then randomly we have a bowl full of water? Has anyone seen this before the house has plastic piping and was built 1989?
