Accepted it's all a calculated guess really on the hrs. TBTH I told the electricians, that did the rewire & new install, what I wanted and they did just that - was over 7 years ago now so has actually performed better than I thought it would! The switch has been dodgy for a while but has...

Being very honest its well over five years and embarrassed that I never realised the gutter situation before - Previously our bathroom was fully tiled and when updated (after the loft conversion) goimg back to plastered/painted walls on the external. Thus some of the thoughts about the mould...

It is a full width conversion. TBTH she (neighbour) is most probably oblivious to this and has no clue. I didn't ever consider this until getting ours sorted but before I caused more & new agro between us just wanting to check I'm not being the arse ;-)

Never have looked properly, my ignorance, but from memory was lead to believe that the downlights to be sealed/complete units (50k hrs or something) so no bulbs to be able swap over. Wattage was low around the 5-6W so presume I am safe to try the Click dimmer..... Cheers for all the feedback

Morning, Peeps Did have some minor damp/mould issues in our bathroom last few years after it was remodelled and with the kids shutting the window before turning it into a sauna put it down to a bad design or something..... it was nowt serious just annoying We also had an overflowing gutter...

Morning peeps, Probably lacking some info. here but I have this dimmer switch (photo, Green one)) which the push switch has started to fail. It controls led downlights in the kitchen and was advised, by an electrician, to swap it over to a Click scolmore model which is 'universal' and has...

Where the leak is coming from is the query. Main cause of the E15 seems to be caused by failure of the sump gasket so replaced this with part 12005744 but dishwasher still leaking. So went under and videod and from the looks to actually be dripping and coming from I understand to be the...

Morning Peeps Have a Bosch Dishwasher SBV69M00GB that has been leaking a little while and causing the E15 error. Have installed a new sump seal thinking that was the cause but now have made closer inspection and now thinking it might be the water diverter valve? [/GALLERY]'] Does this look...

Afternoon peeps I'm wanting to install a new outdoor light in my porch but have the light on a timer and just switchable on and off ad-hoc. Can I ask a recommended light switch option and would a smart switch be of benefit? i.e. ask 'Alexa' as cannot be bothered to walk to switch it on :cool...

Afternoon Peeps I have a flat Porch roof (with Slight Fall!) which is EPDM over the plywood on the roof joists - Please see images. Know this is not following any warm roof/cold roof designs but this is just a simple lean-to porch. I need to 'tidy' the porch up aesthetically and idea is to...

Cheers muchly So to clarify..... No benefit to wire these additional sockets into the ring (currently just three double sockets in conservatory) but just spur off. Two Spurs to new sockets from back of current sockets or off wiring using wago junction box for example. Or, spur off to a FCU...

Good afternoon We have conservatory sockets on their own ring circuit but are wanting to add one or two outdoor sockets for lighting rather than the extension lead out the window currently.... The sockets would be on the outside of conservatory wall in couple of locations not further down...
