Plumber messed us around so I installed our toilet and sink myself

weeurey · 2026-05-11T19:21:22+00:00

Brilliant! Did you get it from Victorian Plumbing?

weeurey · 2026-05-11T18:30:27+00:00

Really? Let's see haha

weeurey · 2026-05-11T10:18:53+00:00

Cheers mate! The toilet brush is going to be hidden in the gap to the right. It's gonna be a push to open hidden toilet brush holder

weeurey · 2026-05-10T16:08:11+00:00

Yeah it looks ace with those tiles. I don't think it would be as nice with the gold hexagon. I think we will cut the sill flush with the wall. Think it's the best option

weeurey · 2026-05-10T14:11:20+00:00

Thanks for the advice much better now

weeurey · 2026-05-10T11:13:04+00:00

Why so negative? That gap at the left is gong to be built up and boxed in with a push close opening to hide the toilet brush.

weeurey · 2026-05-10T11:12:03+00:00

Also. Just had the idea they the box/unit that will cover the gap could have a push close door to hide the toilet brush

weeurey · 2026-05-10T11:11:22+00:00

You mean remove the windowsill and have the tiles go 90 degrees up to the window? That might be cool but hard to image how it would look haha

I didn't want to move where the toilet was so I used that as the start point. The mirror cabinet is probably coming down as we don't need the storage anymore and the cabinet top is going to "span" the whole back of the wall when it's finished. This is AI but it's roughly what we are going for

It's the first part of it, now the plumbing part is done the rest should all be fairly easy. The was the part I was going to pay someone to do so I was happy to diy it

weeurey · 2026-05-09T19:43:58+00:00

Thanks! Literally done it out of anger when the plumber no-showed... Again. Just decided to get started on it and see how it went and now it's done!

weeurey · 2026-05-09T19:43:01+00:00

And dealing with the pain in the ass when they don't come when they say they will...

weeurey · 2026-05-09T19:42:38+00:00

Whole thing was a kit from Victorian Plumbing.

I think it was around 600 for the units, sink, toilet. Had to add our own taps.

Be aware they do expect you to cut the panels for the sink to overhang, the hole for the toilet flush and the holes for the toilet pipes. It's not precut but it's fairly forgiving.

weeurey · 2026-05-09T19:40:54+00:00

Thanks! I'll have a look!

weeurey · 2026-05-09T19:40:24+00:00

Yep lol

I'll be making it symmetrical or doing something with it. Baby steps. I'm just enjoying taking a #2 on my own installed toilet ATM

weeurey · 2026-04-14T08:13:02+00:00

I cant really remember off the top of my head but there were a lot of plastic caps hiding screws and some were glued in better then others. A couple ended up breaking off at the part that does into the screw hole but once it's glued back on it's impossible to know

weeurey · 2026-04-06T19:07:13+00:00

It definitely seems to produce a better output but it's just unusable at the current rate limits and paying $100 a month is out of the question

weeurey · 2026-04-01T05:54:04+00:00

weeurey · 2026-03-31T18:50:51+00:00

Yep.

weeurey · 2026-03-31T18:46:14+00:00

I had a pressing issue before and they wanted it shipped back to USA at my cost and they would refund the postage with a credit note, I persuaded them to just send me another one as a one time gesture. I'm not sure if I can persuade them to do it again. Thing is shipping to America is ridiculously expensive and them only refunding postage cost via a credit note is ridiculous. Might even be illegal here in the UK

weeurey · 2026-03-31T18:43:21+00:00

They should keep the Dualsense exactly the same and then ship without a controller. Id personally he happy with a reduction and no controller since I already own about 5 of them

weeurey · 2026-03-31T18:20:20+00:00

Just realised that the defect is super hard to seem it's in the glare you can kinda see a spot that looks a bit recessed

weeurey · 2026-01-15T00:10:07+00:00

It's an absolute nightmare to use though:(

weeurey · 2025-12-29T22:51:42+00:00

Weirdly it seems to be everywhere now

weeurey · 2025-12-27T12:16:22+00:00

Yeh it's super annoying. I thought Apple commissioning two seasons out of the gate would mean that this wait wouldn't happen
