Uneven bath outlet

Hi. This is an issue that I may not be able to explain very well. The pictures may not help either. Just installing the the Mcalpine bath trap and outlet.

Re: Banging Noise in Loft but not From Central Heating

Hi Can you take some photos of your roof and also of the inside of the loft? Do you hear the banging regardless of whether conditions. i.e. when windy? Could it be birds, on or perhaps in your roof space? Is it actually a banging noise? Could it be described as a flapping sound? Not, birds but unfel...

I i...
