The NIGHTMARE before Christmas 

Really really sorry to hear about the loss of that electric boiler. Still show how much of a genuine and unionist, committed to client you are as a plumber and as a person.

I love toms channel I learn something new everytime I watch him

Tom you are a good honest tradesman, mentioning that boiler manufacturer who has rather less moral scruples will allow other installers to make an informed decision before using their products.😉👍🎄

Enjoy your well earned break over Christmas and New Year 👍👍

When I fit a basin waste with a metal nut I always wrap ptfe round the threads as water will seep down bare metal threads. Merry Christmas!!

all the best for 2024 TOM ;;

I know what's its like plumbing over Christmas have a good break and a good Christmas 🎄

Happy xmas and New year mate, all the best for 2024.

Been watching you for a very long time tom, honest and genuine trademans that are very far and between. Keep doing the right thing mate. Top work and have a great new year

The best on RU-vid in my opinion Tom 👍 Have a fantastic Christmas and New year 😎

Merry Christmas Tom. Catch you in 2024

Shame on that boiler manufacturer , good on you for doing right by the customer though. Have a great Christmas 🎄

Great video Tom,and have a great Christmas

Thanks for this information.

Have a good Christmas Tom.

You (and PB) are the best plumbing channels on YT. Learnt a lot. Happy new year buddy.

Merry Christmas Tom thanks for all the videos

Loving your channel, you’re doing awesome work. I don’t use silicon on waste always leak. Plumbers mate the way to go

Happy Christmas Tom enjoy the break mate take it easy

Great channel Tom with true transparency. Have a great Xmas mate👍🏻

The best plumbing chanel by far. You show real world plumbing, have a good Xmas and a very good new year. X

Happy Christmas Tom chill out you deserve it I’ve been a plumber since 1972 paying for it now I have narrowing of the spine so take it easy 👍

Interesting channel. The joys of the job.

Happy Christmas Tom. I reckon by the end of 2024 your channel will have a lot more subscribers.👍🙂 I stick a bit of twisted up tissue blue roll paper in pipes that still have water before soldering, the water fairly quickly wicks down the paper sticking out of the pipe if the paper hanging out is lower than the pipe. Oh, I'd never buy an electric boiler from that manufacturer again if they dicked me around like that!

Merry Christmas Tom. 👍

Hi Tom great video you have got to name and shame the boiler company if you deal with a good manufacture They normally are more than happy to speak to you because its their name on the product

All the best Tom. Keep plodding on pal. 🎄🎄

Thanks Tom have really enjoyed your done to earth videos

I use PTFE tape on basin waste threads plus a thin bead of sealant around the washer. Always does the trick for me.

Many thanks for the best wishes Tom. Sincerely hope you have a decent break over Christmas, though frankly I doubt it. Many thanks too for all your hard work with the channel. All the very best in 2024.

Merry Christmas Tom. Thanks for all your efforts to entertain us this year, it's the highlight of my Friday evening. Appointment viewing I think it's called, look forward to it every week.

Merry Christmas Tom

Happy Christmas Tom, hope you get a break over the holiday, kick the electric boiler firm into touch, you can do without the hassle, keep the vids coming, yours are by far the honest best, take care 🎄

have a great deserved holiday Tom, l reckon you need it, great vids this year the channel will grow it is so honest.

Merry Christmas Tom. Really enjoyed your videos this year mate. Definitely the most genuine plumbing channel on RU-vid. Enjoy your time off... All the best for 2024.

Little stress Ball of jobs before Xmas finish Tom, Have a great Christmas 🎄 Tom, Brilliant content this year 👍👍🤜

Merry Christmas, Tom, great 2023. Thanks for your hard work. I'm looking forward to seeing you next year.

Hi Tom, both those jobs in the film look very fiddly and frustrating, hope all went well with both jobs and you had no call backs. I hope you get sorted with the boiler it leaves you in a bad position with the customer, especially when the supplier will not help you out and it’s not your fault. You have produced fantastic films all year for the channel so thank you for that and it’s great when I learn something new and always appreciated. You deserve some time off over Christmas and New Year, so all the best and as always take care, I look forward to the first film of 2024. Thank you Tom for all your hard work in 2023, enjoy Christmas and take care mate. 🍻🍻🍻👍👍👍👍

You've taught me a awfully alot thank you on plumbing jon

The plumbing in that house looks like nightmare fuel. Have a great christmas matey, subscribed.

Real world plumbing, its refreshing to see straight forward basic plumbing being fixed. Some of the plumbing shown here is obviously or least hopefully DIY but great to watch you get on and fix without any drama. Really enjoy watching your videos mainly because you show plumbing as it really is. Best wishes for the festive season Tom

Youre an honest guy. You deserve to do well. Have a good breka and a prosperous new year Tom

You're a legend of the plumbing game Tom.. really enjoyed watching all your videos this year. Hope you have a great Christmas and look forward to watching more in the new year.

Well done as always mate, quality work and love the way nothing phases you. Enjoy your well earned time off and see you next year, keep safe and well, Dave

Thanks Tom. Brilliant entertainment the whole year. Merry Christmas, try to have some time off!

Merry Christmas Tom. Keep doing the same next year mate, you are so very good at it. Excellent videos and editing. well done.

As an old Ex plumber I really enjoy your channel, look forward to seeing more from you in the new year and wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Merry Christmas Tom, hope this time next year you have many more subscribers, well deserved.

what away to end the year with yet another good video well done Tom have a good Christmas m8t and a great new year..👍👍👍

Loved your vids this year Tom. Keep up the good work. All the best for Christmas and the new year.

Why on earth would anyone fit service valves underneath a cupboard , im not a plumber but if i were fitting those basin cabinets i would have had solid pipe from the ground up into the cabinet then have the service valves inside where they are easily servicable. Great video 👍

Your like me digging floors up and using flux ... going in bareback no gloves 😂 .... get it done ! ❤

Tom, thanks for all your exceptional video content - it’s a real pleasure to see someone so skilled at working in challenging situations, and how you go about it. Hopefully you’ll have a bit of a break and relax over Christmas!

Thanks for all your videos and sharing your experience. Have a great Xmas tom 🎉

Have a fantastic Christmas and a brilliant New Year!

All the best Tom .thoroughly enjoy your videos, keep up the good work mate . Happy Christmas 🙌

Thank you Tom for everything that you do. 😊

Merry Christmas Tom. Hope you enjoy the break and spend time with the family. We’re all glad of the break us tradesman. Graft hard all year round and need a recharge this time of year! I wish you every success both in business and with your channel for 2024! Take care. 🙏👍

What a nightmare with that electric boiler. Appreciate all the videos you do, always nice to know youre getting an honest video. Lots of plumbers now seem to be getting sponsored and trying to sell stuff. You dont know whether they mean half of their feedback on stuff or not. Hope you have a nice xmas and a great 2024 😊

Always seem to be those jobs to do before Christmas. . Have enjoyed your videos Tom 👍👍👍. Have a happy Christmas and a new year 👍👍👍 Have a well deserved rest .

Happy Christmas Tom my mate and a happy new year as one retired plumber to a live one❤keep up the great works

As always fella. Don't worry about subscriber's will always be watching. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Enjoy the rest and see you on the new side.

Happy Christmas mate

Flexi Friday on them basins . You have done your best this year Tom . Enjoy Christmas and new year.

Great downstairs job repair mate two many joins no wonder theirs all those leaks have a great Christmas and happy new year see you in 2024 🤔😎

Thanks for so many interesting videos this year, Tom. Try to take a break...

Subcontracting definitely has its pitfalls. Which company were you dealing with for that electric boiler job? Name and shame them I'd say.

Was that compression fitting seemed really over tightened, I have no idea why people do that, it seems to cause so many problems.

Tom your as honest as they come pal, thanks for the time & effort you put into these videos Merry Xmas & hope you have a good 2024 👍🏻

Merry Christmas Tom, have really enjoyed your videos these last few months,have a good break you deserve it mate 👍

And a Merry Christmas to you.

A very Happy Christmas Tom and a peaceful New Year, so looking forward to seeing your next video 👍

Great content as allways tom ....have a great xmas and new year ....🎉

Great video Tom, gas/oil boiler company’s aren’t that bad if you have a big problem with one of their boilers. And they say the way forward is electric, not for me i will stick to gas lol. I hope you and the family have a great time over the holidays and you get time to recharge.

Thank you so much for a great year of videos. It’s fantastic to watch you and I love your mantra of you can only do your best. Many of us can learn from that. Hope you have great break and look forward to more videos in 2024

Where can I get that pipe bender from Tom. Gonna be starting as an apprentice plumber in the new years and wanna get some gear over Christmas thanks as always for the videos been such good help for how things work in the real world of plumbing

Another informative video Tom, what a struggle, do you weigh all your scrap in for Christmas?

Merry Christmas Tom, Enjoy that well earned rest and thank you for your honest real world videos. 👍

Love it Tom . Compression under floor . Typical builder move or diy'er . Golden rule aint it are ked . As a gas engineer myself ✌🏻. Absolutely love your knowledge and its nice to see a proper old school plumbing. I was tought by an old boys too . Have a great Xmas and new year. Remember to take time for yourself and family. Cant wait for you content in the new year ✌🏻

Have a great Christmas, Tom. I always enjoy your videos.

Happy Christmas Tom. Have a well earned rest. Thanks for all the vids they've been really entertaining. Stroll on 2024. ❤

Great videos merry Xmas and a good new year Tom 👍

Once you found the leak why did you then dig up the whole length of copper pipe ? I would have repiped the feed for the toilet above the floor?

Happy Christmas Tom thank you so much for all your hard work uploading the videos for us all to watch

Merry Xmas Tom

Great videos Tom, hope you have a good Christmas and get some well deserved time off!

Thanks for content. So many leaks at one time seems to be the isolation valves have had lots of problems with. But leaks at the traps is poor to have left. So feel for you about the boiler I really hope that you get your money back. Only came across your channel recently thanks for the tips and insight. Happy Christmas to you.

Great work 😊😊😊😊

Hi Tom, Had a great year watching your videos, have a great Christmas & New Year. Look forward to seeing you in the New Year. Regards.

Merry Christmas and happy new year Tom, best around!

Hi Tom , you are definitely right about some manufacturers not wanting to help with their faulty products . Looking forward to your New Year videos , I learn something in every single video that you make , even if just your mindset . Have a break , look forward to seeing you in. the New Year.

Merry Xmas Tom Enjoy your break and put your feet up 👍

Happy Christmas mate. Been a great year watching your channel. Have a great New Year 😀

It’s an absolute pleasure watching your videos, the only way is up with your channel Tom. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Happy Christmas mate.

Keep up the good work Tom , all the best for Christmas and a Happy new year

Happy Christmas Tom thank you so much for all your hard work putting your videos out for each week throughout the year for us all by far the best plumber & plumbing channel on youtube All the best to you & your family

Hi Tom It’s my opinion that you should be well within your rights to name and shame the boiler company, if that’s the best customer service they have then it’s poor! These big companies take the absolute p**s out of tradesmen and end users and don’t really comply with their own warranties. Disgraceful. Have a good Christmas and hope you get a bit of satisfaction with the boiler company next year! 👍👍

Great content Tom, Have a great Christmas and New year mate, love ghe videos.

I’ve been to jobs where they have used decorators caulk
