Hi,


Was wondering if anyone else has had their wing mirror broken off recently? It has happened to our car twice in the last two weeks. It seems someone has deliberately broken off the wing mirror for some reason. Both times the car has been in the same place. First time it was Sunday night, second time it was Saturday.

I had a car (parked outside my house) with a pavement facing wing mirror snapped off last year - the 'best' version I could come up with was that a group had been talking around the car, someone had perched/ sat on the wing mirror and their weight had broken it - however when you get rows of them mindless vandalism does seem most likely. And that 'best' version was an attempt to give an 'accidental' spin to what was otherwise an unpleasant attack on my property.
I know some people on piermont road had their pavement side one taken off, along with the others all parked that side of the road, a few months back. I don't know if this is the same person but it was definitely a person who was hitting them off. Can't remember if they were stopped or had left by the time the police arrived.

Same happened to me near Barry rd / Underhill road. Pavement side. They snapped the metal bracket the mirror sits on. The car is a mitsubishi shogun and generally very robust so not an easy task to break it.


Very frustrating and very expensive. If its kids their parents should pay.. amd let them work it off in some way thats beneficial to the local area...


If its 18+ they should pay and then face some sort of a charge.. Public flogging should just about do it.


Its a mindless crime!!!

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
