First of all I know I've been a silly boy! 6 months ago i bought wifi thermostats to replace some of the analogue ones for our underfloor wet heating system. It worked well so I decided to replace the rest. Bought what i thought was the exact same model through Amazon and fitted them. Wired...

Just checking before I make a rookie mistake. This is for wet underfloor heating. Attached are 1. Existing wiring to heatmiser 2. Heatmiser wiring diagram (it may possible be to a slightly different model) This is the one that was given to us when we moved here but there are several slightly...

House is 12 years old. Was remodelled 5 years ago I've lived here 1 year The smoke alarm was beeping due to low back up battery and as it is mains wired, I flicked the switch at the consumer unit to knock off all the electrics while I removed the alarm cover. When I switched the electrics back...

We've lived in this 3 story largish victorian house with old cast iron radiators for about 8 years. I think the c heating system is about 12 years old. The boiler was replaced 18 months ago. This evening a rather loud constant noise started from the system. The noise sounds as though it is...

I've got a slight leak coming from the area where the pan and cistern are joined. I'm guessing it's the waher. Before i take it all apart can someone tell me - is the washer likely to be a universal size or is it likely to be specific to that unit?

Ours is a large Victorian house with a smooth concrete render. We're having the roof redone and while the scaffolding is up I plan to repaint the house even though it was only last done 6 years ago. One side of the house is next to the road and gets quite dirty - so I'm thinking textured...

looking to do a straight swap although the old fan didn't have an over-run and this one does. Simple system - fan is separate from the lights so just switches on and off with it's own switch. The instructions are a little confusing. I'm connecting live to live, nuetral to nuetral and then...

I bought an ex display vanity unit/basin/taps/popup waste at the builders merchant and it didn't have a washer for under the basin. So i bought from them a plastic washer, fitted the whole thing and it leaked. Went on t'internet and numerous people say discard the washers and use silicone. The...
