Thanks for that - a great help.

Thanks guys - I'll pop over and try both those tomorrow.

Is it common to have a cold radiator on a newly drained down system. A friend of mine has just bought a house and one of the radiators isn't working. He has had it a week, and I thought the problem was a sticky thermostat, so I dreained it down for him, fitted a new thermostat, and re-filled...

Good evening. I have just seen a house that would make and ideal flat conversion, as ground floor and first floor flats. The problem though is that the hall is quite narrow as an access to the first floor, and I don't think we would be able to get a 30" door as the main door to the first...

Thanks a lot for that. Yes there is a already a cooker connection, and I don't plan to do anything other than remove the front plate and connect it!

Good evening. I have just purchased a flat that I will be letting out. I will be getting an electrician in to safety check the electrics. I also intend to buy a new electric cooker. Does anyone know whether I can connect the cooker myself and then do the check, or should I ask the...

Thanks

I am laying some victorian floorboards onto the joists updstairs, and plan to use lost head nails. Quick question - what length nails would be appropriate?

I have just had it confirmed that the drawers will be grey metal (which in my opinion should be better than the brown deluxe MFI). So, am going ahead with howdens. P.S. delivery is much quicker too ...

Good evening! On the advice of my sparky, I have asked howdens to quote on the MFI kitchen I have been planning. Their quote came in at about 9% lower than the MFI quote. The specific questions I have is : 1. How do the carcasses compare? That is the Deluxe flat pack from MFI versus...

Thanks Dave I'll wait until the eletric is back on and keep my fingers crossed. Thanks for your help.

P.S. I assume that it doesn't matter that the electric or gas isn't on (My sparky has curerently disconnected the switch, cos it is moving a few inches, and I am awaiting hios return this weekend).

Hi Dave I'm not sure what prv means is it the overflow pipe from the combi? I actually drained down from one of the ground floor radiators which has a special connector, to which I could attach a hose pipe to, then I turned the square nut to release the water. I thought that there might...

Well, as you walk into the room, there is about an 800mm wall to the right. I wanted to have a 300mm baseline unit on that wall followed immediately by a 500mm electric cooker, then another 300mm baseline unit. This would mean that the cooker door, when opened, would be in the line of the...

Is there any regulations that state the minimum distance required for a cooker from a doorway in a kitchen? If so, is anyone able to assist me please?

Thanks Softus. Will do mate.
