    How can I heat the hot water towel rails without putting the heating on ?

    Simplest solution would be to have dual towel rail that is heated by electric as well as central heating. The other solution would involve altering pipework and installing zone valves which would no doubt be much more expensive Or just turn off all the other radiators

    If that is the standard of their work I would not have them back.

    Why is my heating taking ages to get the house up to temperature?

    If your gas meter is under the stairs check that the lever is fully on. When the boiler is cold you could turn on to max and do a gas rate using the meter to work out gas consumption

    Dormer/chimney water leak - help!

    Felt dressed up the wall isn't the best , should really be done in lead chased into the brickwork. Looks like you have flashband along the edge, would only consider that as a temporary measure. Think you may be in need of a competent roofer

    ICE told to get the eff out

    Simple a case of extremely excessive force for a trivial incident, carried out by a billy big boots with a gun. Would he think it was justified if it was his wife, sister or mother murdered in their car

    Radiator Sludge

    Depending on make of boiler and if you are on water meter it is advisable to have a small expansion vessel/ shock arrester. Good practice would also be to install a scale reducer on the incoming main to protect the plate heat exchange

    ICE told to get the eff out

    As to whether you agree with this poor woman's political view is not the case. We all have a right to protest. From what I have seen she clearly reversed and then drove forward to move away, if her intention was to run over any one would she have done so?. The ice officer's where probably píssed...

    Most of those cleaners are not to UK standards and to comply it involves separate supplies. Check out different categories of water supplies
