Remove existing toilet, pedestal basin and taps, medicine cabinet, 2xtowel rails, hand towel holder, toilet paper holder and toothbrush holder. Replace above. The pedestal basin is replaced with a cabinet basin. I am out of town from December 23 through 30, so any time before or after that would be great.
Hi, I think my problem is the parapet wall, as I had proofed the roof previously...with pap & lap, then rubberized. But the problem persist. I thought of removing the flashing and replace with new concrete. What would you suggest? I'm getting desperate. Please help. I know it is a bad timing, but I would like to start the process.

We have a unique water saving product which needs to interface with the hot water pipe going to the mixer of a shower. The products consists of two boxes, one housing a flow switch and a solenoid valve. Work to be done: If the hot water pipe is accessible from the top in the roof then the two pipe attachments of the flow control need to be interfaced with the pipe. If the hot water pipe is not accessible then the tiles need to be removed from the shower wall to get access to the hot water pipe and a small box housing the flow control equipment needs to be fitted to the shower wall. The cable which is used to measure flow and control the solenoid valve needs to be placed between the tiles and fitted to the electronic control which is linked to the AC supply.
