I agree with you about this kind of furniture. The problem is that the cushions have gone quite soft and it would take about £1300 to have it recovered and new cushioning put on it. We feel that this suite is also a little bit too big now for just the two of us. You keep with the 'old...

Oh! sorry if I didn't make myself clear. Thank you for your kind reply. What I was wondering is if the lovely wood on this 3 piece suite can be recycled in some way, perhaps by cutting into it in order to make other things fom it. Like a low table perhaps? The thing is, like I say we have...

Hello everyone, and thank you for looking at this post, and any help that can come from it for me. Having purchased a new suite I am looking for ideas on what, if anything, perhaps can be done with this fine wood on my 3 Piece Suite. (Photo's posted under the above title). Perhaps...

Hello again guys. I do hope that you are keeping well. Some further advice would be very much appreciated. I want to replace those set of connections joined to the Tank outlet following the possibility that this area may have caused my problems last winter. I want that sorted before my...

Hello there ajrobb and thank you for your thoughts in respect of the use of PVA. Thatnew toiletarea is actually well away from any water. However, being an area where there is a shower in use at times of course there will be steam. (An extractor fan does of course automaticaly come on...

John...I tried to upload 3 more photo's but am having difficulty right now. The Alcove next to the new Loo is the Shower....next to that to the left is the sink and left next to that is the Bath. The Toilet/Shower/Sink and now LOO room is actually quite a good size and the missus and I...

Thanks for your usual kind words John :D Yes I am quite pleased with it. I took my time with everything and tried to do my best with the help of yours and other advice. Yes, you are correect.....Out of the new Loo which is now on a slate floor and a 2 inch slate plinth. Then through the...

Hello Guys...and particularly Burnerman 2. Well I have finished the moving of the Toilet and have posted some new photoes under 'Moving Toilet'. I managed to take out the old soil bung going into the floor, replace it with a new one and this gave me more slope to take the soil pipe into what...

Hello again guys. I was pleasantly surprised to receive the below E. Mail from Worcesters Area Service Manager. Although I do not agree with his assumption that the Boiler broke down wholy because of the problem in the pipe identified by you guys. Arguably (O.K. very arguably)! I believe that...

O.K.....got it :) ...Thank You. At the time of purchase I was not aware of this difference and just assumed that condensing Boilers all did both heating and hot water. It seemed a natural way to go anyway. How was I to know that if I wanted a Combination Boiler then I would have to pay for...

Hello snb and thank you for your input. Regarding a possible oil leak, would that not have caused the 'Lock Out' button to trip? I will do an exact measurment of hight and distance to Boiler for oil tomorrow. "should have had a convential system installed". I am under the impression...

Thank you for this valuable info John. :D The usual setting for my Hot Water is the lowest setting. (1) and the Heating on 4 and a half out of 6 Maximum. I have copy and pasted all of your advice to my E. Mail box for reference. Thank you..when you give info to try and help John...you...

Blimey John..thank you for this very quick and usefull advice.What a really nice Man you are. "this is due to too many TRV's turned down on the rads, the thermostat being turned up too high on the boiler (C/H water side), the bypass valve not allowing enough water to bypass, or the pump...

Hi Burnerman and Cassius66. I have been out all day so this is my first chance to reply to your fast response to my plea for help. I didn't really know what the 'High Limit Stat' reference was but I took the front off the Boiler front and had a look for a press switch inside...

Ah! well...another day when my Worcester 18/25 Boiler has failed to work. No Heating or Hot Water The boiler was working most of Saturday 19th March 2011 and then I noticed the room temperature was going down, so looked at the Boiler. Both Heating and Hot Water lights whereand are still...
