I want to replace our old shower (exposed valve type) with a bar valve shower. the 15mm pipe connections are 160mm apart and all bar valves are standard 150. I know offset connectors might work but on forums, people say its difficult to get the connectors to 150 AND level. its a tiled wall so don't want to remove tiles, but short of fitting the same type of shower.......any advice?

How can I go about requesting a building inspection? What is involved in this?
Hi, I've had a damp survey done on a house I'm in the process of buying and it has recommended that the ground is lowered at the back of the house to prevent water splashing from the patio tiles onto the walls (and hopefully exposing the air bricks so that the sub floor is ventilated). I think the job would involve slicing off some of the patio tiles, digging down to the appropriate depth, laying down a membrane and then filling in with gravel. I'm not sure which is the most appropriate trade to do this - would it be something a general handyman could do?

Can heating engineers offer independent advice on new boilers? Or are they tied to certain boiler brands? Many in our area seem to have brand logos on their vans and websites.
We're thinking of adding an extra toilet and we've been told it's tricky to plumb in and should consider installing a macerator. I'm not sure I like this solution as it seems overly complicated and a bit icky, so I would like the professional opinion of a plumber. Is this a good, reliable and hygienic solution, or not?

I’ve started prepping the doors but not sure if I’ve done enough. Will eggshell stick to gloss or does it need primer or sanding first?
I've got a largish terrace which has an asphalt roof, asphalt type boiled up from blocks in tar boiler. Presently part covered in GRP tiles. Tiles and asphalt have moved with heat and it looks very untidy. Terrace is laid over solid beam and block first floor so area needds to be water tight. Can tiles be removed and asphalt replced or is it better to remove both and relay with something else.
