Hi Folks
I'm after some buying advice for ceiling lights.
We live in a late 60's bungalow which has a full length dormer extension in the roof.
I am in the process of modernising the upstairs hallway.
There is no natural light in the hallway except the little glass panels above each of the...
We have 3 "Pairs" of these units upstairs. They are the type that flip inside out for cleaning purposes.
All three show the same symptoms where they rub and collide with the frame when closing. This makes for a very creaky and stiff closure of the locks, some of the locking pins have already...
We have this old stone wall that needs a little attention in the odd bit. Structurally it looks okay. I'm going to have a got at tidying up the pointing.
Should I be using a lime mortar? I'm no expert by any means, should I be looking at NHL 3.5 hydrated lime? possibly a 3:1 ratio with...

The walls are mostly brick with about 15mm plaster on surface. They...

I have a full length flat roof dormer at the back of my property that is about 16m long. The gutter had outlets at both ends of the dormer.
I'm replacing the existing plastic guttering with deepflow plastic.
I'm after some advice on best practice to achieve a slope towards each outlet please.
I do need to do a bit digging about/testing before I come up with a final solution. The outside wiring just seems to pop out from behind soffits etc, I'd rather keep any additional wiring to a minimum.
I feel the "Change all lights to PIR units" might be my solution but from experience I'd probably be walking into dark areas waiting on activation of each unit. We have a small woodland in very close proximity at the back of the house. I'd also worry that on windy nights the tree movement would...
