Yes, it's a concealed valve with a removable chrome plate, but it's a long way from the shower heads (there are two). Can you see it in the picture?Can we have a pic of the shower? Is it built in with a removable chrome plate?
Yes, I have been concerned about this for a while, but I'm not sure how we can put it on now! Obviously if it's causing the current problems, then I feel I can go back to the builder and ask for the shower to be re-done, but at the moment I don't feel I have any evidence for this!It needs to be checked out as soon as possible, but I would also be concerned about the lack of tanking on the walls
I know he is very conscientious and would imagine that he did, but I suppose a problem could have arisen since?I wonder if the plumber has pressure tested the showerhead pipework or just hoped for the best.....are there any spare wall tiles just in case?
Yes, I agree! But neither the builder, nor the plumber, have ever been "hasty"....plus now all the bills have been paid there is no incentive for them to come back.....I will let you know how I get on!I think then that the plumber needs to make a hasty appearance to discount the shower valve and pipework as the cause.
I wish I had a close up picture of the shower outlet elbow, and facia plate.
Lets not hang the plumber just yet, could be faulty shower valve.
I had one at Christmas that decided to stream out of the spindle and down the back of the tiles onto the ceiling.
What make is the shower Paula?
Thanks Paula, is there any pipework for the shower visable from the loft?
You need to keep ringing the builder, he needs to get the plumber back. Don't pay anyone else to come and investigate or the builder will wash his hands of it.
Hi Paula
No don't do anything now until plumber has been and keep us updated.
What was the outcome of this? I'm on tenterhooks.
And why is tanking and wetroom section all hidden away down here all of a sudden?, I'm worried Paula will not find her way back here to update.
Shame, if you were nearby to me I would have popped in and taken a look. Hope you get it sorted
