Oh really? Wonder why it says on the instructions to use self adhesive underlay when floating?

When using underlay for floating, does it need to be self adhesive for this flooring?

Hello everybody, just looking for some advice please. I have got this flooring from homebase: https://www.homebase.co.uk/15mm-solid-parawood-flooring/12816499.html I need to fit it in a bedroom upstairs that has got timber floor planks. Reading at the instructions it says that I can: 1. glue...

Yes I can run heating without hot water if need to but I'm concerned it might damage the pump as the system is pretty much drained. Could I refill the system using the vent pipe?

Yes the tee is out of reach. I have attached a picture of what I believe my system is which now makes me think. If that is correct, the only way to drain the Expansion tank is through the boiler because the pump is not running and the motorised valve is shut as I switched off the heating...

I have attached a picture. The 15mm feed pipe and 22mm vent pipe from F&E cistern can be seen side by side between heating controls and Radiators wireless thermostat receiver shown on top right corner of the picture. I was thinking to run it only for a short period, maybe just hot water to the...

Hello, I have got this Bristan Mixer and I need to get a new cartridge, any advice where I can get a compatible one from, thx.

Well, flex goes around cylinder and is only about 1 metre long before joining a 15mm copper tube that goes to the power shower. Wide angle shot? What does that exactly mean?

Dunno, always been like that since I moved in 2 years ago. Can you see something not quite right?

Hello all, I have a vented system with cold water tank in loft and hot water cylinder in airing cupboard upstairs. There is a surrey flange fitted on top of the cylinder. The side feeds a Bristan 1000 Thermostatic power shower. The top feeds all the hot water taps in the house (two in the...

I think it's because distemper have been used, hence the chalky powder.... Not sure if I can paint over it...

Even the hairline cracks? That would take me forever :S

House built in late 50's. Paint came off really easily in most places but wall has loads of cracks. What would be the best way to hide them before painting? Cheers
