Love the fact that pb wears gloves to pull a few bends but when it comes to fishing around in a pan connector full of the clients shit he’s straight in there bareback
Hey PB, I'm not a plumber but I really enjoy your videos and find them very interesting, thank you for taking the time to make and share them. I tried to sign the petition but I live in Australia so got absolutely nowhere with it. All power to you for trying to stop van and tool theft, I wish you every success with the powers that be, I hope they listen to you and act on your behalf. Thanks again for the videos, cheers mate, Brenden.
Another great informative video PB , don't give up hope on your van break in petition it may take a while but it's worth the effort your giving it , I got 30 members of my family to sign along with myself because I know it's got to be sorted out , thanks to guys like you we might get something done.........cheers mate. 👍
😂 Good video PB, I get how relieved you were the boiler didn't leak, as for the dripping noise, I did a job in a nursery where it was kids crying all day and they played a running water noise to 'calm' them down for nap time, I was a broken man by the end of the day 😂
Nice to see another fitters views been in the game from the age of 16 now nearly 50 dad was a plumber as well but you never stop learning about the job and the customers keep up the good work Regards Lee
Your work van is too dope!!! I love that your reppin that Veto tool bag too! I currently have the Veto XL. Saves me from making several tool trips back and forth from the work van, but boy does it do a number on the shoulders. Love the videos man, please keep em coming on youtube. Take care, From Staunton Virginia.
Might be worth building a purpose-built rack in the van just for batteries to keep them separated and hold them in place. Perhaps there’s a Velcro bag that somebody has designed to hold your batteries?
It's a narred versa funnel dude. Plum centre sell them. Draper do a version on ebay and machine mart. I have both exactly the same. Draper is 3-4 quid cheaper. 👍
Had a Tubella bender which had a really tight 22mm/3/4" former... really neat bends...that was over 50 years ago though. A bit of WD40 on the swage tool helps much and the side of a 20 0z. claw-hammer is more efficient than that sledge:-)
Hey pb I just got myself new Dewalt 9Ah tools, The battery's come with Transport covers like a red plastic part that slides and locks into the battery. good heads up
I had a diverted diaphragm change this week on a CDI 35 II RSF last week a complete arse job. The pcb casing had become so brittle, itfell apart had to duck tape it back on ! That boiler nasty with the plate on the back though!
Loving the vids PB only just subscribed. So true about those ‘Character building jobs’ as a spark I’ve been there- supppose the equivalent to a weeping joint is a constant tripping RCD after board change and finding what will always be a joint under floor!!! Great vids and commentary mate keep it up
As a maintenance guy I always carry something to bypass switches, 3 pieces of cable, one with two male crimps, one with two female crimps and the third with one male and one female crimps. This allows me to safely bypass any bits of kit I suspect as faulty and it’s slightly more reliable than cable with bare ends. 😎
Regarding that 22mm swaging tool, it’s tough on your hands and arms if you do a few. We had a tool back in the 80s with scissor handles that did the effortlessly, think it was a Rothenburg. Great videos.
Get ya self some black mambas when messing with WC pan connectors kidda. Was that a Gledhill pulsacoil?used to do a lot of work on them ain’t saw one for a while. Juicy cool videos fella filled with useful information for the new beginners hopefully they take note of your knowledge 👍🏼
MR PB just a couple of small point vents must have the free air on written them now, the ventilation in the "larder" was for the larder so don't need to worry bout fly screen etc and final point is terracotta vent are generally tapered (stick ur biro in test if it gets stuck bout 2" in its gotta be changed.im not knocking just helping.
Good stuff PB. Noticeable change in the pitch of your voice from the first part of the diaphragm repair to the second part when you had it stripped down ;) Signed your petition.
Very informative item about the batteries. It would be interesting to know if the batteries from various manufacturers have keepers or covers available so that the terminals are covered from coming into contact with anything. It is my view that all spare tool batteries should have covers available - DeWalt/Makita/Bosch etc. I wonder how many other fires are caused in the same way. Was this question asked of DeWalt / Makita etc.... Keep up the good work with your vids.
Had my van broke into the weekend the scumbags smashed my window and took all my powertools. Absolutley heartbreaking. Two weeks ago i signed the novanber campaign. Hopefully we can get tougher sentences so no one has to go through what i went through saturday! Keep compaign goin PB 👍🏻
If you have an old drill case or grider case ect.. cut out the plastic holders and keep your batteries in that. easy to grab stops them banging around.
What difference does the swirl nozzle make on a gas torch when soldering? Does it heat the joint differently? What are the advantages over standard nozzle? Thanks for another great vid, PB. Always learn lots from each one.
We all love a good veto tool bag , you seem the DR range drill bags, ideal storage for your batteries , but I do like them battery holders you showed on a video or insta before , what brand were they??
another big fire causer is "trigger start torches" left on the bottle, the safety locks can and do break, then when bumped, hit or falling over, they can light up and quickly start a fire. always remove the torch head from the bottle!
Can I ask a question on forming sockets on the pipe I have always used them but was told on my gas assessment that you can't use them on gas is this true or not Regards Lee
My mentor always swaged pipe even on gas. Although he anealed the pipes first. This is done by heating the pipe until it starts to glow. Stops the pipe fron fracturing when it's stretched. I sometimes swaged my pipes. But now I press 99% of my fittings. Nothing wrong with swaging pipes. Gas lines are mostly low pressure nothing in excess of 30mb. Central heating pipes expand and contract and work at higher pressure up to and in excess of 3bar. Still I never had any problems. It's better to aneal the pipe 1st. 🤪
another quality video PB,keep em coming mate.its disappointing about the petition,i shared it on my FB and only 2 out of 57 friends have signed it ,the same friends that are always asking for favours off me :-((
how lond did the monday morning diverter valve take to? do you book out time in diary as an estimate time or just hope it dont take long and base it as a swap in swap out part
Great video again mate. Why is the five away only on instagram only asking as I have recently stopped using it but still follow you on Twitter and watch your videos on here.
I’m still new to all this been an apprentice about 5 months, was just wondering why you have a 22mm coupler with two reducers taking it from 15 to 22then back down to 15? Cheers (is that a 22mm tee for the gas maybe)?
Hi PB, I am an up and coming plumber from Thornton, Leics. love your work and getting lots of ideas and tips from your Instagram and you tube. Would love to be in for the chance to win my first Velocity tool bag! James.
Might want to grind off the spalling on your swage mate. That stuff gets work hardened, if a bit breaks off and flies into your eye or your neck, could be game over.
Looks at nice bit of kit but £300 is pricey for a socket former and the tools provided are sized in inches not millimetres so probably wouldn't work properly on the tube we use in the UK
a 9 volt battery and steel wool or aluminum foil can start a fire. people here have burnt down houses before having all the said items floating around in their junk drawers...
Love the fact that pb wears gloves to pull a few bends but when it comes to fishing around in a pan connector full of the clients shit he’s straight in there bareback

Good vid!. That icon diverter looks on par with the CDI. Made me laugh how Worcester turned an easy quick job into a right pain in the face!!
Once again, great video! There is a lot here. Ton of content! Definitely worth the watch!
Nice to see another fitters views been in the game from the age of 16 now nearly 50 dad was a plumber as well but you never stop learning about the job and the customers keep up the good work Regards Lee
Your videos are great! Very informative & interesting 👍
Super video. These people who come out with crap comments need to respect your years of experience and knowledge.👍
Your work van is too dope!!! I love that your reppin that Veto tool bag too! I currently have the Veto XL. Saves me from making several tool trips back and forth from the work van, but boy does it do a number on the shoulders. Love the videos man, please keep em coming on youtube.

Great video. 60 sec boiler tips are brilliant .
Brilliant video the longer the better 👍had to pause I'm a celebrity
Iv like 20 batteries.
Top tip!.
Ill be doing something about storage for them asap
Nice pipework there PB
Might be worth building a purpose-built rack in the van just for batteries to keep them separated and hold them in place. Perhaps there’s a Velcro bag that somebody has designed to hold your batteries?
Another top video
PB. Loving the content, even if I'm a sparky.
another great video, 60 second's are great!
Hi pb. What’s the name of that flexible Matt you have to get into boilers which funnels the water away to a bucket etc cheers
It's a narred versa funnel dude. Plum centre sell them. Draper do a version on ebay and machine mart. I have both exactly the same. Draper is 3-4 quid cheaper. 👍
ghostmanromeo thank you!
Picked up a Nerrad one last week 👍🏻

Guy i worked with showed me When soldering you know the joint is heated up to the right temp when the flame goes green

Bro when your next video, been waiting for weeks. Your the best thing on TH-cam
Huge thanks for the vids and your tips , i dont get to work/learn from other people much so its pretty decent seeing these ,
What difference does the swirl nozzle make on a gas torch when soldering? Does it heat the joint differently? What are the advantages over standard nozzle? Thanks for another great vid, PB. Always learn lots from each one.
We all love a good veto tool bag , you seem the DR range drill bags, ideal storage for your batteries , but I do like them battery holders you showed on a video or insta before , what brand were they??
You can always just put a pump onto the magnacleanse :) good if boiler not working
another big fire causer is "trigger start torches" left on the bottle, the safety locks can and do break, then when bumped, hit or falling over, they can light up and quickly start a fire.
always remove the torch head from the bottle!
Pb where have you gone? Every Sunday eve I check in to see if you have another vid. I havnt got any other social media platforms to follow you on.
Can I ask a question on forming sockets on the pipe I have always used them but was told on my gas assessment that you can't use them on gas is this true or not Regards Lee

Love your vids mate, keep them comming,
Could you do a video on how to calculate a pipe sizing on a gas boiler
Anton app in playstore for pipe sizing. Unless you're doing your ACS
Could you do more new and old tool reviews keep up the good work
another quality video PB,keep em coming mate.its disappointing about the petition,i shared it on my FB and only 2 out of 57 friends have signed it ,the same friends that are always asking for favours off me :-((
Do they ever ask to borrow your tools?
Remember those that didn't support you when you're asked for mates-rates..next time.
Great advice on positive attitude 👍🏻
One of them jobs where your stressed and fed up and would of turnt that toilet feed off and that iso would of leaked 😫😂
Where do I sign the NoVanber campaign 🤔
Is the boiler aloud to be fitted on wood? And is the flue aloud to be that close to combustable materials? Great work as usual though
Yes it is
Good content thanks 👍👍
Household tips
Dunno if it's me that filter looks a bit small. I just like the magna cleans addy do
Best video 2date pal👍👍👍
top videos
I think I love you PB
So do you recommend to every client when getting a new boiler to also do a power flush as well as it’ll be more efficient? Seems spot on just pricey 😂
My batteries only live in the tools never loose!
how lond did the monday morning diverter valve take to? do you book out time in diary as an estimate time or just hope it dont take long and base it as a swap in swap out part
Im wished they sold whatever solder you use in Canada lol
I’ve visited the vaillant training centre twice and that info never got mentioned. Do you have a link to his videos? Thanks.
👍great vids
Hey PB can you do tutorials like toilets how to do compression
Great video again mate. Why is the five away only on instagram only asking as I have recently stopped using it but still follow you on Twitter and watch your videos on here.
Ross Stewart I’ve just done a TH-cam only giveaway with the Milwaukee combi drill, so thought I’d do an Instagram one next
I’m still new to all this been an apprentice about 5 months, was just wondering why you have a 22mm coupler with two reducers taking it from 15 to 22then back down to 15?
Cheers (is that a 22mm tee for the gas maybe)?
Brad Camani yeah, feeding a hob elsewhere.
Brad Camani yes it’s a tee that comes thru the wall matey
Oh right yeah thought so, was hard to see it’s a T
Did you agitate the rads?
RosskillbaneC yes I always agitate on a magnacleanse
First to view & comment big up PB!!
Signed
Hi PB, I am an up and coming plumber from Thornton, Leics. love your work and getting lots of ideas and tips from your Instagram and you tube. Would love to be in for the chance to win my first Velocity tool bag!
James.
local to me dude!
No way! I think it’s best you train me up then 😂
I also didn’t realise I posted the same comment twice 🤦🏽♂️😂
What do u think of ideal logic
O pete that shit in the pan connectors right put me of my sandwich. Still bread 'n butter as you say 🙄
Was that a primatic tank?
Where you gone? When’s the next vid?
wasted day and half never fitted that boiler again lol
You should do a daily tool bag video
If you haven't heard of it, I don't blame you. Best part is it has a drain point. Other than that it's pretty shit 😂😂😂 tickled me did that PB
hi mate whats happened?
Hi have you given up making the vids?
I'd be wearing gloves when that close to someone else's hoop
If you had turned that toilet off i bet the ballofix would have leaked lol
Might want to grind off the spalling on your swage mate. That stuff gets work hardened, if a bit breaks off and flies into your eye or your neck, could be game over.
Fully agree with you Sheps
Sheps what a cool way to die, death by swage Tool
Seriously tho I will sort this thanks
one shouldn't have to lock up their tools so well and worry about idiots nicking them...
You need to get a hilmor compact swage tool
Put an end to your stone age method
Looks at nice bit of kit but £300 is pricey for a socket former and the tools provided are sized in inches not millimetres so probably wouldn't work properly on the tube we use in the UK
Do you know why I do my “Stone Age method”?
Your a neat plumber pal
You are a fucking loser
a 9 volt battery and steel wool or aluminum foil can start a fire. people here have burnt down houses before having all the said items floating around in their junk drawers...
