Ok thanks. So the tiles are slight out the gutter and no chimney near the leaks. Will take some more photos.

Cheers bud, will take more pictures from the outside couldn't see any obvious slipped tiles from ground level. So I guess on a normal roof without the eaves cutting into the ceiling you wouldn't notice it as much. Would eave trays help in this sort of situation or make things worse? I know it's...

Hi all, hope someone can help! I'm not in the roofing game so this has got me baffled. Got a weird potential leak in my house which is a mid 1940s. Concrete tiles no roofing felt. So on one of the rooms closest to the gable end its where the room goes into the ceiling of you know what I mean...

Probably a simple question but will soon be building new extension over existing garage. The garage already has deep enough footings as it was built with this in mind. Anyway it's a single skin block garage. So when bricking the inner skin with block what options have I got to tie the old with...

Lol, I've put a few baths in in my time, having pipes in the way with the potential of getting nicked or caught means a no no for me! But there is nothing wrong with it if you are that way inclined

When I was in college, they used to run this in their mockup a, when I questioned it they said it's fine. I however never do this as it just gets in the way of bath legs and wastes runs etc...

I do like his videos, no nonsense guy. However some people think he's reckless but what people don't realise is that he is highly intelligent and knows what he's is doing even if it doesn't look like that. Hope he's ok.

Even MK have jumped on the band wagon. I just don't like the idea of a small transformer that is always on regardless of any load behind a socket. Although saying that if I had to buy one it would be from MK.

I would have cut it off by now! Slice the nut will come off easy

Nice work. I hate fitting those types of shower valve. They are designer really badly. I try not to have any compression fittings behind tiled walls or any inaccessible areas but sometimes you just can't avoid it. You can actually get 3/4" to 15mm solder male irons which go on the valve this...

Thanks. Was either timed fuse spur or timed switch whatever I could find, same difference really won't do any harm.

So... ;-) thanks. I was just thinking of sticking a low energy light hooked up to a timed fused spur from the garage lighting circuit. Suppose no need to complicate things. Cheers!

been a while! So I'm looking at a lighting solution for my driveway. I don't really want a stupidly bright light that will upset the neighbours, ideally looking to have a light that will dimly light up a driveway so the missus can see where she is going. Just a little subtle light but enough...

Excellent work buddy and also living there too. Your missus must have been very understanding!

I've got a cheap Titan 5kg one for core holes I'd rather break that than my expensive makita sds. Easy work use the extension handle. Never had a problem with it.

Also some manufacturers torque rating are slightly different in the way they market it. So a dewalt with 65nm of torque does not necessarily have less torque than a makita with 85nm of torque. Makita all the way of course though! :)

Always use an angle grinder for this with slitting disc, tin snip will work but can distort the thin metal.

If it's straight on to bare brick consider th moisture aspect and use of vapour shield

I have seen someone use hammer mode on a combi to drive in screws with amusing effect. :D

Dont forget ear defenders!
