I should have said that I fitted a new head.:unsure: I need a new head for myself.

Warm greetings friends. The TRV4 Rad Valve is not responding to the valve and stays hot. The valve pin is working -pressing down and springing up. Any advice will be most appreciated.

Thank you, my friends!

Because of the drop, the 2 doors won't open properly and scrape on the flags. The summer house is 8 sided. It is dropping on both sides front end. On the cat flap side it has dropped, cracking/breaking the floor board. 3028/3029/3033 On the opposite side fig 3019 & 3025, it has rotted and dropped.

Yes!! Thank you!

I'll take some tomorrow. I live in North Manchester but could not get anyone to look at the job.

I'll take some photos tomorrow. There is a double door at the front which does not meet anymore, and leaves a gap as mentioned above.

Warm greetings. My summer house has rotted/separated where the wooden side meets the wooden floor. The floor is supported under neath so the wooden side has slid down a bit. The result of this is that the wooden double doors have parted by approx' 1.1/2" at the bottom and about 3/4" at the top...

Thank you.

about 15ft

8ft lengths are probably the longest I could get down the trapdoor. Could I glue and screw two lengths butted together, then another piece overlapping the joint?

I was looking at some YouTubes about curing 'bouncy' floors. Some joiners were fitting wooden 1 x 3 'strapping'. These were screwed across the joists covering the whole room, 12" apart. Is this a good method??

Great idea!! Thank you.

I am fitting some noggins in floor joists. The gap seems to vary slightly as you go. If I cut a noggin that is slightly smaller than the gap, is there some way to wedge it, or do I have to cut another? I thought you could measure once and cut a dozen noggins but....:cry::cry::cry: is there a...

Twas the cistern! I have cushioned it from the tiles, with rubber washers. Let us hope it does not come back!!‍ Thanks to everyone for your input!

It is dry under the carpet. First thing I did was to pull up the carpet and screw down the floorboards, which made the floor solid, but did not resolve the toilet squeak.

Still have not solved it! I am wondering if it is coming from where the water tank sits on the toilet itself? Secured by two wing-nuts.

Thank you! No washer fitted!

I have a toilet that creaks when you stand on the wooden floor. The planks run cross wise , and the joists the run long ways away fro the toilet. The toilet is over one of the joists. All the plants are well screwed to the joists so I assume it must be the 'bounch' from the joists as you walk...
