    Fitting Integrated Fridge

    I've replaced our integrated fridge with a BEKO model. The lack of clear instructions didn't help! The problem I've got is that the fridge door doesn't make a tight fit at the top, it's Ok at the bottom. The fit was fine until I attached the cupboard door front. Any ideas on how I might...

    Detached Back on Kitchen Cupoboard

    Hi, The back has become detached from one of our kitchen base cupboards! There is a kick board I can remove but that’s about it. Any simple solutions on how I can reattach the back would be most welcomed. Cheers.

    Laying Vinyl Floor Covering

    Took up covering and found it was previuosly secured with double sided tape,. So will probably use this again and then go around gaps with clear sealant, unless anyone can come up with a better method? I'm new to this forum but have uploaded photo of the vinyl (somewhere), but it's pretty boring!

    Condensation on Toilet Cistern

    Leaving the window open in the bathroom has helped a lot! With the cold weather we are getting I foolishly kept all windows shut to conserve the heat, thus causing me another problem. Hopefully, it's not sorted. Thanks for the advice provided.

    Varnish for Ceramic Tiles?

    I have recently tiled an old coffee table with ceramic tiles. As the grout is white it will probably at some point get stained, so I thought I could possibly varnish the tiles and seal in the grout. Does anyone know the best type of varnish to use. It needs to be durable, without the risk of...

    Best White Gloss Paint?

    Hi, I'm looking for the best quality white gloss paint. Hardwearing that keeps it colour. Lots of the paints I've used in the past have tended to discolour quite quickly. I would rather pay a bit more and get a better longlasting finish. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks for...
