Replacing shower

[uksparks]

I have just been Googling and found that people suggest Wylex or Crabtree fit these boards, so will have to try one of them.

either you do the plumbing or he does the sparks, Mrs Jones doesn't mind long as it's done right and legal...what she don't want is two appointments in her diary.

Was wondering how many sparks when asked to replace/install new shower do the complete job(plumbing work as well as electrical).

I've quite happily installed the lot in my own house but I can't imagine my PL insurance covers me if i caused a leak in a customers property.
Obviously the proper way would be to get plumber and spark in at the same time but that's one hell of an expensive shower replacement for Mrs Jones.

I always retro-fit Triton T80Z Fast Fit. Virtually every possibility for cable & water entries, plus the water inlet swivels right & left on delivery - you fix it the side you need it. Means unusual to have to faff with water pipe. In addition, this model is designed for retro-fit and so the casing covers up most other make electric showers.
I also have domestic plumbing as a secondary trade for my PL insurance. Also have C&G pipeskills - it was only 5 day course. Covers me all round.

you know what...
just reading some of this..

i cant believe theres some in here that cant connect a friggin pipe up....without thinking its going to pis out all over the place...

i have installed umpteen showers...on domestic & commercial (hotels, guesthouses etc)...not one of em leaked...i didn`t get called back and the customers were happy....

its all about using common sense...not re-using old olives (as i have witnessed some do) and generally thinking about what you are doing...

come on..it aint hard..... or is it?
