Any plumbers about able to help?

The GF's WC Pan has been destroyed by a stiletto (Don't ask, teenagers!) and it seems to be from a discontinued manufacturer.

What I do know....

It was made by Spring Bathrooms in 1995. It's a close coupled design and it's a sort of champagne colour. We only need the pan and I can change it myself, but the company seem to have gone out of business or been taken over.

Google seems to be a bit indecisive, they could have become Spring Ram and then Jaccuzi or they could have become Fordhams. Can anyone throw any light so I can start to track down a replacement pan?

WCs are cheap; might be easier to get a whole new one.

True, but it's easier and will mean less decorating if I can get the same pan, plus it'll match the rest of the porcelain in there.

A bit of a look around shows Spring Bathrooms - Spring Ram Corporation - Jacuzzi UK. http://www.jacuzziuk.com/index.html

From that page - Jacuzzi UK Group Plc. was established in 2000. It was previously The Spring Ram Corporation Plc. Any enquiries regarding the company should be sent to enquiries@jacuzziuk.com

The company began as Spring Ram Corporation, but in 2000 was reincarnated as Jacuzzi UK. The firm is a wholly-owned subsidiary of US-based Jacuzzi Brands, which was acquired by Apollo Management in February 2007.

www.replacementbathrooms.co.uk/ seem a good page that I came across.

Ta,

After speaking to various people Including the very helpful HM James it seems Spring Bathrooms were primarily made for B&Q etc, there's nothing overly special about them.

I suppose my biggest issue is finding something with a similar footprint and dimensions as the floor tiles are discontinued too!

Is it any wonder I have greying hair biggrin
