He's the original plumber whom nearly 3 months ago I have paid and who initially installed and soldered the pipes the wrong way...hot where cold is and vice versa...he soldered the dishwasher tap T junction to the hot pipe (he installed the hot pipe back to front) whilst I was at work. He hasn't shown much professionalism....i.e; coming to my house to install the sink taps without the correct pipe connectors etc. to connect to the pipes he had initially installed, then sending me to the hardware store to find them; then charging me for 45 mins time he spent at tradelink getting flexible hoses for the gas pipe that he forgot to bring to the job with him to connect to the gas pipe he had installed previously Hmmn. me thinks his mind was on another job...he was in too much of a hurry to get to another job he booked without finishing the job he'd agreed to do that day ie, installing a new HWS. I took time away from work to be at home that day, now I have to take more time off. He has to come back anyway, he said to pay him when the work was finished.

Re: dishwasher plumbing dilemma 20Jun 01, 2010 4:25 pm Borg is probably right. Take the aerator off the end of the spout and clean it out. You probably got some muck through the lines when the plumber did his work and it has blocked the aerator/flow restrictor.
