Would a 4 inch diameter cast iron pipe fit into the top of this and also the bottom of the Aquaflow 110mm product, or would any additional adaptors be required? The horizontal would be attached to a 110 mm plastic soil pipe. Thanks.

A relative is looking for a touch control panel for a Beko Tymble Dryer. Would anyone happen to know where these can potentially be sourced online? They've enquired with a repairman and apparently could take 3 months to get one, though I don't know where they're sourcing from. Model: b5t4923iw

How much more expensive (percentage wise) do you think DG units with Pilkington Optiphon laminated glass would be compared to DG units with standard double glazing glass? Alternatively, could two sheets of "regular" laminated glass (each of different thickness) be used in a DG unit to give a...

Is the labour cost the same for installing uPVC double glazed windows irrespective of whether the windows are casement, sliding sash or tilt and turn? That is, all other variables being the same i.e. same installer, location, window size

Would anyone know of a website which shows readily available designs in the UK of obscure glass patterns for DG units - ideally showing the same background so the privacy level can be compared. Thanks.

Someone mentioned to me that when a textured design privacy glass is installed in a double glazing unit, for a bathroom for example, it's a buildings requirement that the privacy glass only goes on one pane - not both. Is that correct; if so, I wonder why this is the case? If it's restricted...

Would a Rehau sash window usually be more expensive (much more?) than a Rehau tilt and turn of the same size? ( 1000mm wide, 1700mm high )

Is a window of 1000mm width and 1700mm height too large to have as a one piece uPVC opening double glazed window? Either hinged the full length down one side, or alternatively hinged along the top, or alternatively a tilt and turn window.

As you will be aware a tilt and turn window can be in closed position, or vented, or completely open. If children have access to such a window (on 1st floor) obviously you don't want them being able to open it, but okay for them to close or vent it. Is it possible that a child could set such a...

Does a coupling exist which allows an external cast iron soil pipe to be connected to a modern plastic soil pipe? Thanks.

I'm aware of someone who is considering having a plumber install a rimless toilet. Are there any known problems with regards to installing these i.e. specific to this toilet type? Thanks.

Are there any 1-gang 2-way touch dimmer wall switches on the market which can be used in conjunction with a 2-way mechanical on/off switch? It does not need to have wifi/bluetooth/Alexa connectivity or have a remote control. Thanks.

If I wanted to have an LED bulb which had an equivalent of at least and old-style 100W (maybe even 150 W), I guess the dimmer switch shown in the attachment could not be used in conjunction which such a bulb since it's probably impossible to obtain a 7 W LED bulb which is equivalent to an...

If wanting to apply affix a picture rail to a stud wall which has still to be boarded and plastered, would you: a) attach picture rail to studs using a small wooden block on each stud, then boarding above and below the rail, then plastering above and below rail b) board entire wall, affix...

If a 25mm metal pattress, with standard 20mm knockouts, is set into a brick wall, to allow the installation of a standard domestic electrical socket, does the conduit need to be 20mm round conduit? That is, conduit running from floor inside wall up to socket. Was wondering if conduit of a...

Would anyone know if there any stockists/manufacturers of similar plaster-in vents in the UK, such as those shown in the link below? Thanks. https://www.envisivent.com/collections/walls-ceiling

As a non-glazier I would presume that standard white uPVC frames have the cheapest cost, whereas the same frames in another colour would be more expensive. If only the outside section of the uPVC frames have a colour and the inside section of the frames remain white (if this is possible), is...

The picture below shows an air vent in a kitchen with the internal plastic grill removed. It's just possible to see the external clay vent brick through the hole. The hole measures approx 17 cm x 12 cm. If I wanted to connect the venting tube from a vented tumble dryer into this, what sort of...

If a switch is a 2-way switch can this normally be used in a location where only a 1-way is required? (I presume the other way around is not possible.) If a switch is just to switch on/off a room light (not a dimmer) and there is no other light and/or switch required, then presumably this is a...

If having an electrician place a surface-mounted wooden pattress box on a wall with a light switch on this in order to achieve a 1930s look, I expect there is some element of increased risk with having a timber product next to an electrical product in this manner. To reduce any such risk...
