    I am looking to adjust the height of my bath at the drain end. I want to lower it approx 10mm. I took a picture of the supporting legs. Do these just need to be rotated clockwise to lower the height?

    Mods :Not sure if this thread belongs in DIY or Plumbing and Heating. Please move if needs be, thanks.

    Yes,

    Is the top of the bath sitting level?

    As above. Also when you adjust it your going to need to adjust your waist.

    To adjust the bath just take the nails out and adjust it. Make sure the bath is level when finished or you will get one or two possible problems.

    1, The waste water will not flow away
    2. The row of tiles will look off even if straight.

    No. It's sloping away from drain :rolleyes:

    It's number 1 at the moment. The seal I have on the bath is something called Teleseal. There's 10 mm of play in it so in theory it'll stay in place when the bath is dropped. In theory!
