That's soldered chrome pipe coming out the wall. Spent ages filing the chrome off to get a good soldered joint. Nothing bu solder for me in inaccessible areas!!

Sorry Mate i didn't mean that snap on chrome pipe tube plastic rubbish.
I also use chrome pipe but use these chrome covers to hide where the pipe comes through the tile
Well done for soldering chrome plated copper,
I just file them up and use john guest fittings with a fitted retainer ring

how can a plumber be a tiler,beats me,not wanting to sound nasty but when will customers realise that they must be paying more in the long run,plumbers should stick to plumbing imo:incazzato:

On that note, A tiler shouldn't TOUCH plumbing..

Lets be honest. We're all gonna dabble in other trades but we also know where our bread is buttered and focus mainly on our own trade.
These forums are great to learn how to do things properly.

As a plumber I'm not going to get a chippy in to replace floorboards. I'm not going to get a bricky and a plasterer in to patch up a hole after I've moved a toilet.

On the same note I wouldn't expect a call from a tiler asking me to disconnect a toilet/basin for a few days.
