P B Plumber The life of a jobbing plumber  

Ain’t bad olive puller , but there’s one issue with it, because I’m good guy , share it with you , always watch out for plastic fittings or Hep2o underneath the tiles or behind the tiles and underneath the floors , could pull all pipe work out from a plastic push fit or compression fitting . Good 👍 luck , nice to see you back in action.

Tip for helping to hold the bolts in place when putting the cistern back on top of the pan is to fold a small bit of cardboard up to put on top of the bolts put pressure down onto the bolt to hold it against the plate. Learnt this when removing and old cistern and see someone had done this and ever since has made it easy to get them on 1st time.

As someone who is training to be an electrician, i sure do enjoy your videos and the message you try and spread throughout the trades. Keep up the brilliant work!

Good to have you back PB LEGEND

He’s voice didn’t half change doing that toilet.....must be that medal 🥈

Love the videos mate. I acquired a little trick for when you put the cisterns back onto the pan. Take one square of tissue, split it in half and stuff it next to the bolt. Holds it in there like a treat. Hope this helps in the next syphon change👊🏼

Super video about the split syphon

Great vid PB!! Thank you for taking the time to do it. We all appreciate you mate!! X Looking forward to the VR wiring…

Best of luck, doing the Marathon!

Really enhoyed the outdoor video you did with the large pipe connection in the field. If you could do more of those, would be appreciated.

I should buy that olive puller for my dad! Brilliant bit of kit. Great video, looking forward to part 2.

Love the Knipex smooth jaws!Ive had mine for over 20 years!

Love the toilet repair 🤢🤣🤣

Enjoyed that Pete. Seeing Marcus on the heat camera reminded me of those t shirts from Hypercolour in the 1980s. The one that changed colours when you got hot and sweaty

Have you lost a lot of subscribers Pete? I thought you were in the 80k plus. Top man, hope the marathon goes well.

Little bit of plumbers mate on the top of the bolts help hold them in place while fitting cistern to the pan.

Toilet got the approval of the dog. Al ittle bit woof, but flushes ok.

I got the olive cutter for the 10mm, never going back to hacksaw! Best £45 I ever spent to change TRVs!

Great video man, learning a lot , I like the way explain everything as you go along

Another great video PB. Glad to see you back

Monument kit is the best

I have one of those olive removers .. never thought of doing that way cheers for that

I use the dickie dyer olive splitter when I can't use the puller. Works an absolute treat. Looks like a bicycle chain splitter. Haven't had to use a hacksaw for years.

Have an olive puller, only time I’ve tried to used it some clown before me used copper olives which were dogged up to seal and crushed the pipe.. Impossible to get them off. Ended up fitting new risers to each rad. In the bottom of by box now.

If you put a bit of electrical tape on a chrome rad, you'll get a better reading from the thermal camera.

I can't handle that beeping for more than a minute. I don't know how you've done that for 6 months 🤯

Great video. Thanks!

Oooooo, those lovely properties in Kelham are only 2mins from where I live

my old man has 4 trees round his house, all with preservation orders. it's a bloody nightmare. i keep offering to go round and poison a couple of them in the dead of night.

20:50, tuck a wee bit of toilet roll into the side of the bolts so the bolts don't flick off

Only ever use hemp and compound on tails.

Volume would always be max on the radio if that noise was going off

Pete ask tool monster to find or make a 10mm olive puller . Would be handy . 😁

Well done mate

He has s right on the placement of the trv this is cause the heating rises. And if you let it stick to the top it will read more temp than the radiator haar actually. Nice to see though

Simple idea

Use blue tac to hold bolts in position

Good luck with the marathon bud. I've got my first 1/2 marathon on the 25th. Done a few 10k's before but this is first 1/2 marathon. Rome will definitely be better weather and scenery than Ironbridge 😂

Excellent pb

Why put paste onto the threads as the olive seals the pipe to the fitting.

Fantastic, olive puller on an impact, that is so much better, my one is bloody hard work

Yes more RU-vid videos please 🙏🏼

Fair play to you putting up with the beeping noise in your van, I had a rattle for a while and I was tempted to burn the bloody thing! it drove me insane 🙂

Old school video today Pete bosh

I like that tool

Top job guys as always

Ahh Newark my home town. Like a snowglobe of a place not a lot changes. Is that kelham or Southwell your at PB?

Those Danfoss endcaps with your logo on are really ugly. I mean, its convenient, but a sticker at the boiler would do the same trick and isn't that visible when you don't need it.

Did you check the chrome rad was the right way up? Sometimes they get fitted with the diverter up at the top.

I would not want the plumbers name on my trv's

What make are the two part siphon..?

I know going top and bottom entry on a rad is more efficient by about 10% but I didn't know the trv sideways did anything. Interesting 🤔

Where do you get them mats from?!

2:30 something to do with the seat belt? Or seat occupancy? Have you got anything heavy on the passenger seat?

Who’s the motor sparky you used? I’ve had ongoing issues with my caddy for about a year now and it’s a wiring fault. I’m in East Midlands near Stamford

If you put the TRV on that way does it not have to be on the return or does it not matter anymore?

I’m sure he’s not got too many hobbies if he’s putting his company name on trv heads!

I always remove and replace rad tails that come with valves.....all new

do you know what is causing the beeping noise pete ?

3:33 Hi, would you rather be employed?

👍

🤘😎🤘

Those trv heads look horrid

have you done many hot water priority systems instead of splan?

I’d never use 2 piece 15x10mm brass reducers Pete, they’re crap!! Always use 3 piece ones. Had too many leaks with the 2 piece ones. Thanks sharing mate👍 Regards Dick Puller.
