Cheers all for the replies. Raked fence it is then!

Hello all, I wondered if anyone could offer some advice or give a concrete answer on a fence height question that I am struggling to get a clear answer for. I maybe missing the obvious here so I apologise if it is a bone question but the generic information given on the planning portal or...

John, Thanks for the swift reply. Tomorrow I will check the hand brake cable is slackened, the self adjuster is at its minimum. I took the old shoes and drums into unipart to make sure I got the correct ones and also did a visual check before fitting and they look identical so hopefully...

Hello, Plea for advice! Today I attempted to replace my rear Mondeo Mk 2 brake shoes and drums. All went well until a tried to re-fit the actual new drums. I cannot get them back on even thou I have set the brake adjusting mechanism to its lowest position. The cylinder appears to be fully...

Both me and my neighbours have conservatory's on the back of the house with a very small gap between the two. Both have polycarbonate roofs so laying boards across would not be an option. The conservatory is about 4.5M wide. All who have come out have said the conservatory would make the job...

My mono mixer tap has just failed miserable in the my kitchen sink. What brand of kitchen taps do folks think are good that are going to last? Found this which looks good value: http://www-1.plumbworld.co.uk/architeckt-comoauris-lever-174-15148 However would I be better spending...

Well had a rep from a bigger Coy out today and even thou I wasn't happy with his quoted price was happy with his breakdown of what was to be done and how it would be done. The first quote was for 2K and he stated that due to the requirement for contract scaffolding to get over the...

Well the plot thickens! Had another quote this afternoon from a local company for £570. Spoke to the Rep at length, this includes removal and fitting of the new UPVC facias, soffits and barge boards. He said they used 18mm for the Facias and 9mm for the soffit boards which if my research is...

Hello, I am after some advice from those in the know or from those who have had this kind of work done to their property. My current fascias, soffits and gable end barge boards are wooden and are in a poor state in some areas. I would like to get them replaced with UPVC and not over clad...

Thanks for the advice and pics Jack very helpful. :wink: as they say a picture paints a 1000 words.

Thanks for the replies and info. So I think my best course is to fit a dual back box, with the hob wired into this then a cable from the second outlet to a 13amp FCU with the oven connected into it.

Taylor you must have been typing the same time as me lol as their was only one reply when I answered. The hob is 6600W and the oven states a max of 2400W

Thanks for the swift answer and the sarcasm. :? I only have one double socket on the cooker counter run so to avoid having a cable appear out of my counter and then plug into and extension lead to make it reach can I run a cable off this to a switched FCU to be able to turn the cooker on and...

I am in the process of refitting my kitchen and will need to my separate cooker and hob connected soon. The cooker and hob came as a set but the oven has a standard plug on it. Can the oven be wired into the same junction box (old cooker connection point) as the hob? The junction box is rate...
