I think I can hide the expansion gap with carpet where it meets the riser. I'll very carefully undercut 5 - 10 mm for the expansion gap of the stringer and I'm hoping that will be fine.. Thanks all!

There's similar walls on both sides

Hi, Can anyone tell me if it's ok to undercut the stair stringer for laying engineered wood underneath please? Thanks, Al

great, cheers

I'll cap it as suggested!!! thanks

I mean the last radiator on the flow and return pipes before it needs to be capped.

well the flow and return are both 22mm copper pipe and the radiators feed from them at 15mm. Could I reduce the end of the flow and return to 15mm to feed the final radiator or is capping it a better way?

Is it better to use a reducer off the end of the 22mm going to the 15mm connection to the radiator or would that be silly?

dead legs? Is that the space between the last radiator and the end of the flow/return?

cheers

Hi, I'm currently pulling up the floor downstairs for underfloor heating and was wondering what to do with the heating pipes. I am having underfloor heating fitted to the entire downstairs so I need to take the pipework out ready for the plumber as I am preparing most of it myself. I have a...

Hi all, I'm going to lay my floor soon, it's 20mm engineered wood screwed directly onto joists for underfloor heating. I was wondering how I approach an alcove in the room as there are alcoves at both ends. I presume I will need to reverse the tongue and groove, can anyone explain how to do...

Yeah that's what I'm afraid of, I suspect it may eventually fill with water from condensation. I'm now considering a flat ceiling hood whereby I would build a box to mount it that would be the same height as the current box and would then meet it at the wall so there would be just one rise at...

Hi, Thanks for the reply The channel to the left where the electrics are hanging is where the duct will be travelling to the wall. It cannot exit the wall there however as the conservatory is behind it. The channel in the centre of the picture can be used as an exit for the duct but there...

hi, I need to run the ducting from my cooker hood to the outside wal but unfortunately my conservatory is in the way. The joists run away from this wall and the ducting will be going in the joist space. There is currently a boxed in area at the wall that the ducting can drop into and travel...
