Thermostatic bar mixer shower installation

A customer in Warrington asked me to fit a new thermostatic bar mixer shower set after a bathroom refurbishment. The previous install left just the rough-in feeds protruding from the tiles — hot and cold stops at the bottom, the shower outlet at the top — waiting for the new fittings.

I confirmed the centres matched the new bar mixer, pressure-tested both supplies, fitted the thermostatic mixer to manufacturer spec, mounted the riser rail and overhead drencher, and commissioned the shower at 38°C with full thermostatic scald protection working correctly.

Concealed cistern siphon replacement

A Warrington customer's wall-hung toilet had been losing flush performance for months — slow refill, weak flush, occasional double-flush needed to clear the pan. From the symptoms it was almost certainly the siphon, which is the most common failure point on concealed cisterns.

The challenge with concealed cisterns is access — the whole assembly sits inside the wall behind a tiled access panel. I removed the flush plate, isolated the water, drained the cistern, and lifted out the failed siphon. The diaphragm inside had perished, which was the cause of the weak flush.

I fitted a like-for-like replacement siphon, refilled the cistern, tested the flush over multiple cycles, and refitted the flush plate. Full flush performance restored.
