There is a banging sound coming from the pipes in my house. It happens often enough. What could be causing this issue? Is it something that ought to be fixed or is it just an annoyance that is doing no real damage? If it needs to be fixed, how much might it cost?

Can mould spread throughout a home even if there isn’t a water leakage issue? Mould is still spreading in different rooms of the house. It all started with a big leak several years ago but that issue was fixed and I don’t see any other signs of leakage. So is it possible that some of the mould simply survived the initial effort to kill it off and has spread from there even without a renewed problem with water leaking? I know that moisture can cause the problem too. How can I tell if moisture/humidity levels are too high in my home? And how can I rule out the possibility that a new water leak is helping the mould to spread again?

Im having a built in dishwasher in my new kitchen. Should l arrange a plumber to do the work before or after the new kitchen is fitted ?

hissing dripping taps on bath advice on what the problem maybe and cost

I'm having constant issues with the sealant around my bath. When I bought the house, it had not been sealed, the tiles had been grouted against the bath. I took this out, cleaned and sealed. But the sealant keeps failing, going mouldy and we've previously had leaks in to the room below, it also seems to leak through the shower screen as well. The tiles sit just over the bath at the tap end, where the problem is, and butt to the tiles at the other. I need to remove the sealant again for the 4th time but need to know what I'm doing wrong. I am removing all sealant, rubbing down with white spirit and weighted the bath last time to account for movement. Only a little water is getting behind, but the plasterboard is slightly damp so it needs sorting properly. Thanks

cost and timescale with also isolating old boiler and replacing stop tap

Why is the overflow still dripping constantly after the ball valve has been replaced twice.

It’s a mixer tap but only the hot tap drips. Cold is fine. You have to turn the hot tap handle really tight to stop it and then it’s a pain to turn back on next time.

Hi, we recently moved into our current house. The bathroom has now an awful sewer smell. On inspection we found it to be coming from the shower drain (walk in shower - tiled floor). I lifted the grill and saw no water seal - no sitting pool of water - and it looks like the shower trap has been removed. Water flows directly down and so it looks like the smell is coming directly from the sewer. My newborn sleeps close by and so my wife is very worried now! However, I have no idea how to get this fixed/replaced as I can't find the brand name on any of the bathroom fixtures. Any help/advice hugely appreciated....

Hello, I’m just installing a soaker hose system and don’t know if my existing outdoor tap (fitted in 2014) has a double check/no return valve. Can anyone advise if it’s likely to have? Many thanks.
