Hi I personally got everything I wanted via ebay its really good quality and cheap i cant fault it. Its exactly the same as whats in bathstore or most outlets just without the mark up. //www.diynot.com/forums/your-projects/waynes-bathroom-project.358403/

I second treat the mould first otherwise it will eventually ruin what you have done. You can bleach the walls down and then protect them before insulating and plaster boarding over. I would slightly raise the floor and insulate that as well before maybe tiling.

Hi Sorry for the delay been up to my eyes in it, The rockwall i found online its a place called nustone i think it worked out around £20 m2 where topps want nearly £80 m2. Yeah we love that tv now plus when football is on my girlfriend has a bath and watches her soaps so a win win really.

Hi I just wanted to share a small part of a project i have been on for a couple of years. The house was a 1930s throwback to be honest so everything has been changed money permitting bit by bit. I'm no professional but pick things up pretty easy so if i can help others i will do my best...

This is the lintel i fitted in the dining room slightly smaller at 900 but created the gap i wanted for the log burner.

Hi I put one long lintel in just left a brick length either side also done the same in the dining room. Got the lintel from Wickes cost around £12 then just concreted it in and levelled everything.

Hi I actually did this myself and put in a 1200 lintel just below the arch to create a bigger space underneath to accommodate a new Gas fire the forum link is below hopefully it will help, Overall it wasn't a bad job just very dirty but well worth the effort. Wayne...

Hmm since when has posting some info on a product you own for around the same money been a problem!! He asked about a cctv system and the one i have i cant fault. If you want to spend £500 on a system be my guest but for home use its more than adequate. it must be that time of year the idiots...

Hi I got mine from maplins a KGaurd system and i cant recommend it highly enough, The 500gb version is more than enough with 4 cameras i got it for £225 all in.

Thanks for that Richard its gives me some idea although your lintel was massive compared to the 70 x 110mm lintel that would be going into mine! Looks like that one was a bit of a job, All the brickwork round mine looks a little dodgy so i think I'm going to get my builder friend round to...

Hi i was just looking for some help on Lintel placement on my chimney breast. I want to place it just above the bricks that are vertically hanging down, This will then enable me to get a hole in the wall fire installed after some brickwork is knocked out. Any help would be appreciated thank...

Thanks for the reply and i am beginning to think that, Had all the drain covers up and watched the flows and they seem to be working ok. I have sent some rods down them and there doesn't seem to be any blockages as such. The only one that has water in is the rainwater drain from the...

Hi I'm not sure if i'm in the right area for this but i was in the kitchen this morning and was looking out of the window and i noticed a crack in the concrete step about an inch and a half wide. I looked around this and there was a couple of bricks adrift from the surrounding wall and the...

My mistake i meant yellow/green, On closer inspection it looks like its been tampered with before one of the lugs is cracked where someone has obviously had a look inside the transformer so i'm going to take it back.

Hi was looking for some advice please. I currently have a new dimmer to fit and was unsure what the SW output on the back was for. I think the dimmer is faulty just wanted to run it past you guys first incase i'm doing something wrong. I have 3 wires from the wall red (live) black (comm)...

Lovely thanks for the reply noseall I will tackle this at the weekend or at least prepare it as its quite a big hole. Regards Wayne
