If you turn the cock stop off where it comes into the house, you can then check your bathroom taps. If the cold water in the bathroom stops running almost straight away you have safe water direct from the mains.

I can sympathize . I too am sick of people who call themselves tradesmen , either not turning up, or turning up and making a hash of things. I agree with the others above , and I reckon if you mention your bad experience to a milkman ,window cleaner, a hairdresser. a friendly taxi driver and the local publican, you'll go a fair way to getting the message around that he's rubbish!

If the cold water in the bathroom stops running almost straight away you have safe water direct from the mains. How did you get on? We did that when it was discovered that the water was not coming from the mains. We turned it off at the mains, and the cold water into the washbasin kept on running. It's coming from the header tank. As I said, we had the bath and washbasin swapped over from one side of the bathroom to the other. If we had kept it the same way, it wouldn't have been an issue. He didn't source the water to the wb correctly.
