That's funny :)

Hi, I've just bought two new Ryobi 4.0ah battery's and charger, well in fact bought them with a hammer drill as part of a package for £155 as worked out you got a free drill and charger instead of buying the battery's for £75 each at b&q. I mainly needed them to power my old Ryobi blue +ONE...

My current shed is a 2x2m shed using shiplap, it was a double fronted shed from b&q around 7 years ago. Last winter the roof started getting damp in the edges & now it is shot to hell. So now has come the time to fit a new roof. I also want to insulate the whole shed due to every winter I use...

I always found this a bit of a tricky issue where neighbours are concerned. Quite simply somebody will always get upset about something you do that is not what you normally do. In 09 I started landscaping the rear garden & decided it was far easier to burn it all rather that making 10 trips...

I got quoted £7680 for it being around 1.6x3.5m. Half brick insulated with a cavity like the house walls & also insulated floor, triple glazing with a glazed roof that reflects the heat out in summer & in for the winter. I was also told that they would go 1m down for the footings.

Ok, so no pp to worry about? What about the building regs etc? You will have to forgive me as I have no idea about these things having never before looked into anything like this or had any work done on the house.

Thanks for the help woody. My first thoughts were just to remove the doors after & then when it gets flagged when I come to sell in the future get some doors fitted. I was just concerned about if I remove the doors will it then be classed as an extension & then subject to planning? What would...

Hi Guys, I'm looking at having a very small conservatory or lean-to built onto my detached bungalow at the back. I only want to extend out by 1.6m & 3.5m across so having a door between would just be in the way. I basically want to extend my living room a small bit to fit in a table & chairs...

No I'm not going to fix the old boiler as we had agreed to replace it when it went wrong & not before like the misse's wanted too. The back boiler I would like to do but increasingly looking like we won't be doing it + the misse's has never wanted to do it either just me. Its still an...

That was for a combi boiler, the qoute for £2600 with a small Valliant. What should I be looking to pay for a new Worcester Bosch combi fitted? What should I be looking to pay for a new Worcester Bosch regular boiler fitted?

Wouldn't the cost of hooking up the back boiler to a thermal store & also a new boiler be a lot? It sounds like what I want to do but the cost of the whole job is a consideration as can't afford to spend thousands of ££££s

We had a quote for a combi at £2600 & he told us it was cheaper than just replacing our existing regular boiler which I thought was odd. He also quoted on a new regular boiler & back boiler hook up at £4800 which he wasn't keen on doing. We never used him at those prices & the fact that he...

I've been told the back boiler will only heat the hot water & not the radiators as its not big enough. I thought maybe this will still save me some cash in the long run but then thought the hot water will be hot anyway when I have the central heating/radiators on so whats the point? I've...

I've been told not, I guess it would be if the right person where to come along but getting somebody to even give me a quote is hard work round here. I wanted to get it repaired but the misses is insisting on a new energy efficient condensing boiler. So if this is the way we go then what...

Right I'm in need of a new boiler as I have been without one since Xmas. The boiler I have is an Ideal WLX by stelrad group & is leaking water all over the place from the casing seal, when on that is. I have a few questions I need answering so I can make the right decision on which type...

Hi, I've not long moved into a new house & seem to be having a problem with our central heating system. Our room thermostat doesn't turn down the heating, even if you turn down the dial it just stays on full blast. If the temp is set to low on the dial the heating won't come on until you...

Maybe somebody could help me! I have recently moved into a new house & it use the towerstat rs. The problem is that it doesn't turn down the heating when its on & it gets roasting hot, the only way is to turn of the heating in the airing cupboard.
