..not at the moment - I'm at work (nice and warm here!) We just cleared it using the siphon - will have a look later.

Thanks for that morlomanc - I didn't think so. I have left a messgae for our plumber but he's bound to be rushed off his feet (and being fairly new to the area don't know of any others). When you say "if the condense runs externally" we actually drained it at the bottom of the boiler (and...

We've been putting off replacing our boiler because we were saving up to re-do the kitchen and hoped to do it all together but last night our Glowworm Energysaver 2 combi developed the following error: Fault Code = 0 and 8. The manual makes the following suggestions: 1) The Air pressure...

Yeah - thanks...you've just made my day. :cry:

Hello, We moved into our new home 2 yrs ago which had a new conservatory added approx 1 year before. We didn't really use it much or do any work on it but in the last few months have started to strip out the blinds etc. In places I can see through the joints - The screws in the doors...

Thank you both for getting back to me so quickly. Can now crack on! Cheers, Woo

Hi, Will this be OK: Fit a post to the walled side of a conservatory for the hinges of a wooden gate. and fix the gate on the other side to a second post (fixed in by poscrete)? Thanks, Woo

Any thoughts? I've added a few more details above.

I'm struggling to find builders and get quotes from them. One has now been recommended to us and I just wondered how these prices looked. The house is a 3 bed end terrace: Removey chimney stack and make good (i.e. repair ceilings, floors, roof and fill in fireplacce opening and plaster lounge...

OK...oil based undercoat. Any particular product you can suggest (not really sure what it is) :oops:

OK - thanks for that LJW61. So if I rub down the whole wall what do I need to sponge it down with? Plus should I go over it with anything in particular before painting with emulsion? Cheers W

Hello, We bought our house about 18 months ago and the previous owners had recently added a conservatory. During last winter we noticed that the paint seemed to be bubbling and becoming flakey. I've now brushed some of it off in the hope to redecorate...but I'm not sure what to do. I want...

Anybody got one of these and can help??

Hello, We moved about a year ago and have an Energysaver Combi 2 80. To be honest we've never really got our heads round it and it's never really worked as it should. At the moment the water temp is way too high (to the point that I scalded myself this morning :( ) but we don't know how...

Darn it...I was hoping that wouldn't be the case. It's about £650 to do it (plus vat on top probably!!!). I thought I'd read somewhere that having the boiler so close and in a confined space might be an issue. Or the fact that it's not easily reached..although I guess if our washier wasn;t...

Hello, We recently moved and want to move the gas meter for 2 reasons: 1) It's in a really unpractical place - in a small pantry...on the floor behind the washing machine; 2) I'm worried that it's not safe in the space it's in (it's below the combi boiler in a space of about 2.5 * 3.5 ft is...

We did think of that but the down pipe is square and we can't find a suitable link to fit it to the water butt

Hello, I recently moved home. A downpipe that is attached to the conservatory has no drain - so the rainwater collected empties straight onto the lawn. Is there anything fairly straightforward that we can do to sort this out? If not who should we get in (roofer / plumber)? We have had...

Hello, We've just started to put our heating on (not long moved in) and even though the rocker switch is set to the off position on the timeswitch the ehating comes on. Why would that be? Thanks, Woo

Hello, I just moved to live in a 1960's house and there are a few things I could do with doing : Removing the chimney. It runs through the centre of the house (inbetween kitchen and lounge downstairs). House much should I budget to remove it? Moving a set of uPVC double doors that go...
