[Misc] NSC Plumbing Question

[BN9 BHA]

I do apologise to @BN9 BHA, but there's three questions on NSC that have been there forever and always have the same answer

I need a plumber - @Wrong-Direction (used to be @SIMMO SAYS)
I need a builder - @CAPTAIN GREALISH
I need a mortgage - @Uncle Spielberg

It's really quite simple

Why do you need to apologise to me?

I usually recommend @Wrong-Direction especially when someone needs a plumber in the Brighton and Hove area.

Because you've been very helpful in the past, and it's always good to have some contacts out in the east

 

[Questions]

I respect plumbers.

Edit - having actually read the thread if it's the float valve that is a simpler fix depending on if you can get to the other side of the flexi in the wall..

The first sentence in the opening post mentions it’s filling then stopping, stop start.
It’s usually the flush valve letting by that’s causing the fill valve to stop start.

I usually change both if they look old and one is playing up.

I see, thank you.
I have done work for posters on here that live in Lewes. I spent years working in Brighton and Hove but I can’t be doing with the parking restrictions and busy roads.
Thankfully I get enough work between Ovingdean and Seaford and don’t have to go into Brighton

Thing is most taps are supplied with them, I wonder how many are sitting hidden waiting to blow at any minute and ruin someone's life..

Called out on a job flooded a flat and the shop below. Two different tenants and the stop cock to the flat was in the shop
. Flex hose went overnight

And I appreciate the jobs you send my way parking is a nause though..
I spent 15mins on the phone to an old lady explaining her awkward job to me earlier. Said I'd go have a look tomorrow , she then tells me she's in the centre of Hove, no parking, 10th floor block of flats..

One thing I’ve learnt from doing DIY on my own place is that what you think is an easy job, NEVER is!

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Is a French polisher someone who sees something or someone French and rubs it/them down with a duster?

Something like that but normally a shrug of the shoulders. Followed with the burning of tyres.

FFS I hate working in flats, should be compulsory to have parking spaces in the grounds for trades working there.

The lift was broken

Agree with that lugging tools half a mile ain’t a pleasure.

What I don’t get is I know nothing about fixing cars I go to the mechanic, why people suddenly think plumbing, electrical work should be attempted without any prior knowledge or experience or correct tools does my head in.

where can I park is one of the first questions when asked to quote Brighton/Hove

Anything that can either flood the place or set fire to it, means I don’t touch it

I have to deal with that in London, oh I think there are some bays two streets away ffs. I charge parking fees and from the time I park up these days.

I used to work for someone that had lots of customers in the big blocks in Hove, I’ve worked in 3 bungalows today

It’s when you have to go back to the van for something stupid .. aggro ten minute trek.
