Not sure if this is the place to ask advice about building over a public sewer, but hope I am right. I am planning to build a 4m extension at the back of the house - permission due date next Monday 29th Sept (done under Neighbourhood Scheme). I have found that I have a public sewer going...

THANKS TO ALL FOR THEIR ANSWERS, BUT PARTICULARLY TO EFLImpudence, THE PROBLEM WAS INDEED THE HUMIDISTAT, I TURNED IT UP AND SUDDENLY THE TIMER WORKED A TREAT, SO I AM ALL SORTED OUT ADRIAN

New one was bought from here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201081600903?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT - I think it is made in Poland, had good reviews. Old one was a timer fan yes, but I dont know the model, and it does not write anywhere on it. Yes I made a note...

I have had 6 years ago installed a bathroom extractor fan which packed up last week, so I bought a "smart" one, with over-run of up to 30 minutes and humidity check. I took the old one out and found 3 wires: - yellow - blue - brown the new fan has 3 x terminals: - T - N - L If I...

One thing I can tell you - you have a problem! I already reported your behaviour to the moderators and admins. You are agressive towards people, you use agressive words, you call people in various ways without any provocation from their part. You THINK you know everything, even what I am...

I am sorry, you have a wrong attitude in life and towards your fellow human beings and I am not the one to fix it. Your attitude towards me put me off using this website again and it is bordering abusive behaviour. I am sure you think you haven't done it, but it is what I THINK as the subject of...

look, ban-all-sheds, can we not just restrict to advice, I thought this is about on this site, not about being lectured what I learned and what I didn't learn in the past months. You don't know me and I don't know you. I don't judge you because of that and I want you stop lecturing me and...

The wall socket can be turned on and off, so the light is turned on and off from the wall socket (crazy, but it was like this when we bought the house). The cable runs through the wall, from the wall socket to the undercupboard light, but I don't want every time to switch off the socket in order...

Hi there, I would like to install a switch for an under-cupboard light in our conservatory. there is an existing cable (twin and earth) which is connected to the wall socket in a base cupboard and it is then connected to the under-cupboard light, but I just want to install a light socket on the...

Good afternoon, We live in a terraced house and we plan to build a porch, less than 3sqm and keeping the existing door, so no planning permission or Building Reg is needed. There is a single file brick wall (150cm height) between our house and next door house, which I assume it is the...

b-a-s thank you ! It was actually a faulty switch, replaced it with another one from the house and it just worked, couldn't believe it, brand new from the box and faulty! It was a Volex and I thought it is a good brand. So it wasn't my workmanship... :roll:

Sorry i meant i used L and L1

No other switch controls the light,it is a small hall in a flat. Yes i did try exactly L1 and L2. The builder connected brown with brown and blue with blue and it stays on the light. Thanks

Thank you just tried that and it doesnt work,no light in hallway

I would like to understand something - this is my first post here: I had a builder who refurbished a flat and when he left, he left a light switch in the hallway connected so that is always on - he basically connected the cables and tape them. Now, I would like to fit a light switch I...
