And they were really good with me, actually wanted to chat, answer questions, and provide solutions... nope! 31 miles to the nearest one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfun Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 I guess I'll stick with Floplast from Screwfix then. no one has said don't use Floplast so I guess it's all much the same stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used Floplast for all my drainage. I also had an account with Jewsons for the build and they gave me a complete list of everything they sold with the discounted price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( messier but ‘safer ‘ ) that's the plan, but going to do the waste/soil pipe first and then I can run the hep2o around that to make sure it all fits in my service voids. one step at a time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some days plumbing , some days electrics , some days IT . Mix it up - same thing week after week gets boring . Also it makes your site look a right mess so people think you are busy !!

Out of the 3 BMs I have accounts with I use Jewson the most as they seem to beat the others on most things! Times must have changed!

I was also told to arrive late with a complete list of my requirements, the reps would be the worse for free wine and booze and guess what I got loads of stuff ordered at cost price or less 👍 So, another evening grooming men then? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
