stiff shower valve
Hi, I have a problem with my shower valve. The thermostat is stiff, thus is difficult to adjust the hot/cold water. From producer website the product is described as: "twin outlet triple control concealed thermostatic valve with ABS coverplate" (http://www.purabathrooms.co.uk/catalog/showers/showers-concealed-shower-valves/SQTCV). I need an expert opinion, but I assume the work needed is: - either check if there is any lime scale and try to clean it - either change the showervalve is the limescale cannot be removed. Anybody able to help me with this? Thank you, George
How much does it cost to plumb in a dishwasher
Hi, we are currently looking to buy a house and we were wondering how much it would cost to plumb in a dishwasher. There is only space for a washing machine in the kitchen currently, we want to know before we consider buying the house how much it will cost on average to plumb in a dishwasher either next to the washing machine or on the other side of the kitchen, which I assume would involve lifting floorboards, as this will affect our offer on the house Many thanks

Cost for fitting a sink and shower
Hi, we are in the process of buying our new home and I am planning on converting a room (a converted garage with attached toilet (without shower, just toilet and sink) into a studio flat. I was wondering how much (and if it is even possible) it would cost to install a sink in the room and a shower in the toilet? As I note, there is already a toilet fitted but it does not have a shower. Presumably there would have to be drainage in place already which could help in these fittings? On a side note, is it necessary to have building regulation for this? Thanks a million!
