The English modal verbs are a subset of the English auxiliary verbs used mostly to express modality (properties such as possibility, obligation, etc.). They can be distinguished from other verbs by their defectiveness (they do not have participle or infinitive forms) and by their neutralization (that they do not take the ending -(e)s in the third-person singular).
The principal English modal verbs are can, could, may, might, shall, should, will, would, and must. Certain other verbs are sometimes, but not always, classed as modals; these include ought, had better, and (in certain uses) dare and need. Verbs which share only some of the characteristics of the principal modals are sometimes called "quasi-modals", "semi-modals", or "pseudo-modals".

Hi. I recently had a renovation done. My builder installed a new Combi boiler instead of my system boiler. He connected the pipework to the digital pump. He did not inform us that we would need a new processor because we had changed to a Combi and subsequently a valve blew. Should my builders...
Hi
I recently did some pipe insulating in my loft.
The only two I didn't do were the vent pipes. Not sure if that is the right term for them? They are the pipes that feed water back into the top of the tanks when there is excess, presumably from steam, expansion, etc. The one going to the cold...
Hi
I'm going to be fitting a tap like this one:
And just wanted to check that this is the correct part for connecting to 15mm copper pipe using compression:

If not, please could someone let me know...
I have a vented hot-water cylinder that was installed when the house was built - 38 years ago! It has a header tank in the loft and the cylinder is located directly above the ceiling of a new and expensive kitchen. It does not leak and causes no obvious problems. Should it be replaced?
Advice...
Hi.
I moved in to a new build home and 3 years later (after the builders warranty expires) the boiler is slipping off the wall at one side.
This is putting pressure on the flue. Not something I’m happy with.
Does anyone know the guidelines on how they should be fitted? I want to prove they...
The system is about 20 years old and has never been cleaned. The radiator water looks like tar and several radiators are warm at top and cold at the bottom.
What would be the best steps to clean the system?
I have spoken to several engineers. One only recommends a magnacleanse due to being a...
Hi all -
Our toilet has got very difficult to flush. A couple of very quick goes on the handle will do it sometimes, but not others!
So we are considering replacing the innards ourselves. I suppose the first question is: is that sensible? ;)
Assuming it is, we have looked on various online...
I needed to replace the braided water pipe for the hot tap as I was putting everything back together; I placed the female end into the copper pipe and before tightening the nut below it, I thought I'd add some WD40 into the nut just to make it easier to tighten.
I then realised, given it's a...
Hi everyone,
I'm about to install a garden tap pipe on a new build, but I'm a bit confused with the pipework I'm seeing under the kitchen sink. Here is a picture of what I'm seeing:
Pipe A - Cold water pipe.
Pipe B - Behind the wood plank, B connects to a valve that shuts down the entire...
Hi gents and ladies,
Making the probable mistake of buying a house at present : bit of a fixer with a shoddy but recent boiler installation. Have a bit of a question for our resident gas people, if you can possibly help me out here.
The vendors seem to have lost the installation invoice, but...
Boiler is making a gurgling sound and keeps short cycling. I believe there is air in the the system and I've already bled all the radiators. This is the pipe leading into the water cylinder, is it where I should be bleeding the air from?
Had central heating installed 9months ago, came back this morning (after stopping at my partners lastnight) to water Soding out of my bedroom radiator, the pipe had literally dropped down and fell out of the connector going into the radiator. Should this repair be covered under the plumber who...
Ive extended my house and need to run the plumbing, I will tee off from the main house which is 15mm, I'm wondering if it's worth increasing it to 22mm with 15mm tee offs to the outlets, or should I just keep it all 15mm, I'm wanting water pressure and volume to be better if multiple outlets are...
I have just had 2 new vented hot water cylinders installed by a plumber (not yet finished) however I am a little concerned as the pipes are not attached to anything, the empty tank on the left wobbles a little on uneven floor and is slightly on the wonk. The plumber is really great but this was...
Having purchased a new build, the current boiler flue terminates flush at the wall, the vented spent fumes from the boiler flue is within 300mm of the end of the vented soffit, a strip of UPVC is covering at least 400mm of the vented soffit, should an extension soffit kit be fitted to prevent...
Hi. Looking for some advice on thermostats.
I've got a Vaillant 835 Ecotec Plus set up but have not yet installed a thermostat.
The house is approx 100sqm, a victorian terrace but fairly well insulated under the ground floor and in the loft. It has two zones: 25sqm of liquid underfloor on a...
