I do know what you mean Dan. The worst ones are the Brits who move over here and then assume that THEY are now both trades!!!!

Calm down fella. The electrician, believe it or not, used his electricians equipment to test the various parts on the circuit board. Where there should have been power coming out, there wasn't. Both the plumber AND electrician did a systematic fault finding approach and both came to the same...

I have double checked with glow worm as well and they confirm that it is the correct board. One last question....just to satisfy my curiosity ! There is a long orange plug and a long white plug below it on the broke board. There are loads of wires going into these plug and nowhere for them...

James, I'm not planning on repairing it and it was the electrician who told me it was the pcb guessman, do you think the new one should be able to be used then? On the old one there are two large plug units but none on the new so it made me think that there's no way all the stuff that gets...

Hi all, can anyone who knows please guide me on this. We had some storms, power went a few times, no issues, turn fuses back on but boiler dead? Plumber been out and checked what he could, advised us to get a sparky out which we did. He thinks something on the pcb. So I call City Plumbing...

Some great ideas coming out here. Wouldn't it be joy if the power were overhead??!! In Florida, all domestic power is above ground which is scary as hell when the plane drops you in the wrong place and the parachute ain't taking you where you want to go!! But I can see how easy it is to complete...

I've called Southern Electric and they seemed very helpful and have started the ball rolling to get a survey done and a price. I've got a nasty feeling that, for all the reasons that you've mentioned, it'll not be cheap! The PV thing sounds interesting though. This might sound stupid...

Thanks guys to both of you for taking the time to respond. I don't know what a PV panel is??? I wasn't really even considering trying to use power from the house to be honest just because of the distance and digging, overcoming paths etc. I wondered how they go about it when they build a...

Hi folks, I might be on a non starter here but would appreciate it if anyone can steer me or put me out of my misery!! My garage is one in a bank of garages about 200 metres away from my house so running a lead isn't an option and there's no power to any of them. I'd love to be able to have...

Sorry, I forgot to mention that the shower type I'd like is the hidden type so a shower head coming out of the wall and a couple of nice taps to operate it Andy

Hi all, what a great site. I'd really appreciate some help to stop me buying the wrong stuff! Firstly I'll tell you what I have: A water tank as well as a smaller tank in the attic, a slimline gas boiler in the airing cupboard (don't have the model number to hand), cylinder in the airing...
