I ran fine this morning. After I'd done the dog's bowls, I put a bottle of cleaner in it. There's just a bit of foam in the bottom, but the drain bit where the filter is is three quarters full of foam. I had switched it off at the mains and went to check on it. The suds had subsided a bit and...

I've got a Bosch SPV25CX00G dishwasher. I've just ran a dishwasher cleaner through it and it's just sitting there chuntering away like it's trying to drain but nothing is happening. There is no water in it, but there is a fair bit of soapy suds and the tap warning light is flashing. I've...

The wiring is all there - it was a separate light and PIR and the PIR blew up. I've no idea which circuit it's on to turn the power off to it plus it's a wee bit high for me to reach, but I think 2.5 years is long enough to wait, so I'll give it a go - once I get a test meter

I'm not scared of it as such, but I do have a healthy respect lol. If I know exactly what I'm doing, I have no problem doing it, but I'm not sure what I'm doing with this light fitting, so I'll not tinker. I might well get a multimeter so I can at least replace my security light so I don't...

My brother will have but trying to get him to do anything is a waiting game - I've been waiting 2 and a half years on him replacing my security light. I'm thinking that the chandelier will go back in the box and I'll buy a light shade :p Whilst I'm willing to try and turn my hand to anything...

My mum got it taken down nearly two years ago and it's been sitting in a box since then and we never thought of asking the spark to take a picture. It's Litecraft and this is the info on it

Don't worry, I won't be plugging myself into the National Grid. I don't see any coloured lines but I'll look again

I'm repurposing a chandelier acquired from my mother and of course, she can't find the fitting instructions. There are three wires on the chandelier - all of them clear. Will there be a particular order that they connect up to ceiling wiring or does it not really matter

Waiting on a new tap coming into Toolstation. I thought that was the chrome coming off - I think I need specs lol Of course, once I got in at the back of the cupboard, I discovered there's no isolation valves - not sure why I expected them cos the guy that did the bathroom originally hasn't...

I dried it last night and checked this morning, and there was the same little puddle and I hadn't used the tap. It's not like it's pouring out, it's just seeping. Gonna have to get under the sink I think and get the tap off. I do wonder if I'd be as well just replacing it - it's about 14...

I don't think it can be, as if it was, surely the water would eventually drip onto the floor? I'll double check though. It could actually just be when I've had the tap on (never thought of that)

Sorry for the delay. Pic of tap attached. The water seems to be oozing out of the base at the back. I dry it up and it just starts oozing out again immediately

My bathroom tap is leaking where the tap fits onto the washbasin. Could this be repairable or is it a new tap? It's an Ideal Standard single mixer (and is the best tap I've ever had ):cry: I stupidly took the photo after I'd dried it up, but it's round the base that I have puddles

The boiler was and is firing up when the shower is running as I said - I just wasnt' getting any hot water through the shower

Yeah, I'd had a look and wasn't sure if replacing the cartridge was better than just replacing the shower. For reasons unknown to me, I disconnected the shower hose and then turned the shower on and let it run - and the water was roasting. Is it even possible that a hose could have caused the...

Yeah, water at the taps is hot but not at the shower

It's a Worcester Green Star 28i

Err it's about 13 years old :oops: Would that explain why none of the pipework is getting hot though?
