    "I'll turn it off tonight, just in case! " Brilliant, doesn't matter how long we do this, we never quite trust these things enough. Good man Tom, thanks for another entertaining video.

      Fair point mate, I did try a timelapse once when doing underfloor heating but I wasn't happy with it, filming can be tough sometimes especially when working with other trades, thanks for watching mate

    Hi Tom, thank you for another great film, the job looks great at the end when it’s all fitted and finished off.
    As always it’s great to see that copper pipe and soldering, another fantastic job and always good to follow your progress.
    Take care Tom and I look forward to the next film. 🍻👍👍

    Those panels are so heavy,I've come across then with a small cupboard built in to them which make them even heavier to lift off,gotta use a suction pads to get them off.😮

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom  Рік тому

      They can be really heavy especially the double ones, good shout with the suction pads, I still prefer these to the chipboard panels though, these are fairly indestructible, thanks for watching as always

    Another great video mate
    (Just a suggestion) you should start wearing gloves or even fingerless gloves
    I know you obviously wash your hands, but getting constant dirty/chemicals on them in the long term won’t be good for your health

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom  Рік тому

      Thanks for the support Jack, It really is a bad habit of mine not wearing gloves, I keep trying but it lasts one job and I'm back to how I was

  • @Rich10000
    @Rich10000 Рік тому +1

    You smashed (in a good way lol) it on this one mate. Any reason in particular you piped it up in copper in the studs not plastic? Nice to see someone using a proper size spanner for once not an adjustable too.

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom  Рік тому

      Thanks for the support as always mate, I prefer using copper if I can, I know it meant bending it a bit to get it in but I would still rather this than plastic

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for the support mate, these were trespa panels on this job, the units are custom built to suit and we just assemble on site, it's a recycled plastic I believe, very hard wearing, fully waterproof, and the colour goes right through so it is difficult to scratch

    How do you stop your plastic pipe sixes from tracking?

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom  Рік тому

      I find if you score the pipe lightly round once, then press a bit harder on the next rotation it doesn't normally track, I have been using the ox cutter a while now and find it very good, thanks for watching 👍

    My Grandad would have told you to insert the copper pipes before fixing the studding. He was odd like that...

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom  Рік тому +1

      To be honest I've seen it done on some jobs, it would have made it hard for the joiner though and I always think if you make someone's life hard they are likely to do the same to you, thanks for watching

    Hi mate, what laser are you using? Cheers

    • @PlumbLikeTom
      @PlumbLikeTom  Рік тому

      I use the bosche 360, the laser itself is bright but for the money there are probably better ones, my big annoyance with it is the fact its not rechargeable and takes 4 AA batteries, they last a while but most professional ones now are rechargeable, thanks for watching mate
