that didn't work - I got back from dropping mrs 5* off at her friends to find a wet patch on the floor and the isolation value that I told the engineer was the problem was leaking.Originally posted by FiveTimes View Postsame clueless engineer comes out and is no use. So guess what he does ?
Go on guess
That's right he isolates a radiator and puts some solution in that might seal small leaks.
The rust around the casing of the valve was a bit of a give away.
I borrowed eldests phone and I've got video footage of the leak.
So I called british gas and an engineer will be out before 1pm. I asked that the incompetent fool who has been out twice before to be excluded from the call.Comment
