Nothing wrong with plumbers mate , it holds the doughnut and gives you extra seal works very well with close couple toilets , I load on both sides , never had a leak ..
Duotec or the potterton promax are my favourite boilers. Nice vid as always mate

Nice to see a professional at work, just wondering if my plumber did a good job on my water tank. He said I don’t need an overflow pipe with my water tank. He swapped it out and said the new valves that are fitted you don’t need overflow pipe. Is that true??
@Heatking

I’m not sure without seeing it mate. Water tank on a toilet do you mean? If so, yes he’s right :)
Another good mix of jobs Dan. Lucky those bolts on the toilet weren't rusted up 😊 difficult enough on a normal cc let alone a back to the wall one.

Brilliant upload, thanks for your time, I've never really had a problem with rusted bolts that a bi-metal blade couldn't reach, but maybe I've just been lucky this far !!!
I believe in some cases that debris is born in the plate. Lack of inhibitor I would say.
Toilets i walk away from you can keep them jobs thanks

That recall wasnt really your fault if it was cracked. You deserve the like just for using stainless screws. My pet hate is cheap wood screws on a pan. 😂
