Our outside tap stopped working. We live in a bungalow and the toilet water feed is tapped off to the outside tap, via an inside isolator tap.
When I installed the bathroom a couple of years ago, I left a door, next to the toilet, tiled, for access to the pipework, which is hidden normally. It was fortunate as the pipework needed a fix. I have copper pipes with plastic JG speedfit fittings. One of the speedfittings had broken, blocking the pipe and also developing a minor leak when I reassembled, after the initial disassembly.
Fortunately for me I don't through anything away, and keep everything! in boxes in my garage. I found a spare corner JG Speedfit in a packet. The replacement fixed the leak and lack of water out of the outside tap. Screwfix had just closed too, isn't it always the way, you need something as the shop closes.
