Don’t forget to smash that LIKE button!!! 🎉
Great job! I liked that you highlighted that not all customers have the budget for making good all the time etc! Often we get criticised and labelled as cowboys when actually it often comes down to clients requests and budgets!
Exactly mate, not everything can be all singing all dancing, you just got to do what you can do to meet the clients budget
@@SmartPipePlumbing sometimes that’s harder than anything! I’ve got a few going on at the moment that want the fancy anthracite column rads but are trying to push the price down!
Great video! Only thing I would say put towel on toilet seat 👍
Good tip! Cheers mate 🙌
Plumbing is a dream and a nightmare at the same time. FACT. Leaks are a part of life. To fix them is another story.
Exactly that mate, it can make or break some people
It is a siphon as the fill valve is the smaller plastic nut to the left!
I realised I said the wrong thing I should of said flush valve not fill valve 😂
Did you spot your mistake on the syphon? Sorry but you called the flush valve a fill valve. Just so the apprentices don’t get muddled. Nice vid mate and good advice. 👍
Did I?? I didn’t even realise 😂 cheers for watching mate 🙌
Hi the reason you should not silicone around the box is it can causes condensation inside the box
Great vid
I never knew that, thanks for letting me know, every days a school day
Right now I am in uk i want to learn plumber skill work so how I can please guide me
Speak to a college
Paying straight away......lol if only! 30-40 days credit expected by most customers ha ha they want you to come straight away but pay later..nice video keep it up thank you
I don’t give the any credit on all invoices I state it’s due now then send a reminder a week later if they haven’t paid. Cheers for watch pal 🙌
My invoices and quotes are payment on completion if its a ball valve or new boiler I will happily stand there after saying how do you want to pay, can't go to get food and say I will pay you next week simple as that.
Good video. Yeah I dont think they will insulate that pipe and if they do it probably wont be external insulation!
I know for definite they’ll be ringing me up again next year to repair it again 😂
🤘😎🤘
🙌🙌🙌
Why not use the Triton easyfit, they are cheap and you don't have to mess about with the pipes
I would of done exactly the same as you said.
What they saved in tbe shower they lost on the labour.
Triton Easy fit T80Z or Mira Jump no pipework alterations.
Instead of using a compression elbow use a bent iso valve that way you've got local isolation.
Using the existing shower hose & handset will invalidate the warranty if they have an issue with the shower.
If you sell the shower as a direct replacement instead of cheap as chips they'll understand the benefits and cheaper labour as less work to do.
All a cost thing mate customer wanted it as cheap as possible, I wouldn’t change any more for fitting the enrich as I would the t80z easi fit or the jump
@@SmartPipePlumbing there is £20 quid in it, customers only know what they are told, if you say this one or that one won't fit they don't k know any better
@@deanmiles8421 fair enough just like to let customer have a choice, gave them the option of the straight swap and the cheapest shower I could get that same day
Who did you end up dealing with to get going with press
I went direct to rigid tool shop
I don't wana be that guy lol but I will be
You should of turned off the
MCB and locked it off
Secondly volt sticks are handy, but (whenever possible) you should always use a voltage tester to test a circuit is dead
Yes I know but let’s be honest a lot of people don’t do it and never have
just put another compression on it mate?
Could of done but there just pull out of the fitting when frozen plus there pipe had been cut short I think
I see you have changed your tool bag again
Yeah I’m trying out the rogue 2.0 as a day to day bag and using my 3.0 as a install bag
@@SmartPipePlumbing let me no how you get on with pal. I’m thinking of getting the NB200 at the installer show. It looks a great bag
@@olympusplumbingheating5027 will do pal, might do a tool bag video once I’ve got it sorted and I’m happy with it
@SmartPipePlumbing ye a vid would be good. I've go the velocity 2 but not sure what to use it for..
