Hi I've been decorating the outside of a house and 2 of the window sills (plastic) have fallen off (before I started). The lady wants me to put them back but not sure of the best way. It looks like they were put on after the windows were fitted as they butt up to wood which the window sits...

thanks guys yeah my electrician said he would upgrade me so it can handle it. Thunk he said something about 100amps ! sorry can't remember. I've asked a couple of estate agents and they said it wont stop the flat selling, one said that a lot of people would rather have a brand new electric...

I dont need to run shower, got electric, will only be 3 hot taps and heating in the winter. Surely this can do that ? On another forum a plumber said he fitted one of these and said in had three bedrooms, bathroom, utility, kitchen, dining room, living room and cloakroom all with radiators...

the gas company will only dig up the road and run the pipe to the meter. Another problem is the meter has to be attached to the front of the house in basement flats front garden. The people that own the basement are not keen (probably be able to get agreement if I offer some money!). Then the...

Hi I bought a flat which had a brand new central heating with new gas boiler. After we moved in my plumber came round to check the system before switching it on. To our horror we found one major problem, no gas !! They had never connected it ! The flat is in a converted house, there are 3...

Hi I've fitted most of my windows my self but need a bit of advice for my last one. I'm replacing the old sash window in my back bedroom and wanted to fit a UPVC double glazed unit. Ideally I would have replaced with a UPVC sash but at well over double the price I really can't afford it...

Hi I've fitted one and have a problem. In the instructions it says 'Replace TOP by engaging lugs and rotating 1/8 turn clockwise. MAKE CERTAIN TOP IS TURNED TO THE LOCKED POSITION. VALVE MAY NOT TURN ON IF TOP IS NOT FULLY TO THE LOCKED POSITION. when I do this no water flows out. If I...
