    Clunge is Cob, it can be a mix of mud (or dung) and straw, mud, gravel and lime, basically any local materials available. I have a bunch of it in my house and wall fixing can be “challenging”. This sink fix looks a great option for “poor” walls. Thanks for the useful video.

    Would be useful if they introduced one with much wider wings at about standard stud pitch so they can be used on new stud walls prior to tiling. That way you could be sure of catching 2 studs and the thickness of the bracket could be lost in the tile adhesive.

    Hi James have you ever heard of The Nerad Jet sweat Tool, there’s only one video of it online. There’s also a similar product in the states called wassi or something. You basically insert the contraption 15///22 into the pipe or valve that won’t shut off, twist it down and a bung on the end expands to close off the pipe. Fairly sure you would have come across it. What’s your opinion? Cheers Thanks v much

    Having spent nearly 40 years in carpentry I can guarantee most plumbers ‘fix’ a basin by sitting it on a pedestal while pushing it against a blob of silicon to the wall. Fixing brackets are binned. This method is ideal if you have a craving for your basin to fail, come away from the wall and fracture the cold and hot water pipe in the process.

Over time the weight of rad has bellied the plasterboard. Is there a similar product that I could use, or if you have any other ideas I’d love any advice. Thanks.

    My bathroom sink is probably at least 50 years old. It's starting to come off the wall on the right side. Seems like all the screws that I can see are in but it detached from the piece in the corner. Idk if there was a screw in there that wore away or if there's some kind of adhesive I can use to fix it in place before the left side comes out to

    Buy a piece of 3mm steel plate. Cut to exact size with an angle grinder, Drill several holes to fit plate to the wall, including the two large holes for the fixing bolts. All measurements and holes drilled level using a spirit level as a guide of course. A bit fiddly but is relatively easy to do. I made my own. Sink, still hangs proud on the wall five years later. Admittedly, only a 400mm wide cloakroom sink. In the words of Peaches and Herb, SOLID! Solid as a rock!
