What tools do you have access to, presently? A Router, especially if you are not used to using one is not the best tool. You have think about sealing the glazing in the slot as well putting the frame together. In My opinion a much better way is to cut a rebate (on a tablesaw or with a tracksaw)...

Living in a rural community public transport is either a luxury or an insult. It's rarely convenient for everyone or sometimes anyone. Village I live in has just lost it's only once a day, 5 days a week, return trip to the county town 6 miles away. Home village has 6 visits per day, 6 days a...

Something looks wrong around the chimney stack. The flashing and flunching shouldn't have a gap between tthem. The tiles above the lead don't look like they have been laid correctly is that why the lead us there to cover an even bigger error?

Neighbour has 14kW on his roof with 7kW battery. He's also on Octopus 'Agile' for electricity. I've seen his figures and his electric costs for the last 3 quarters is zero and he also as not paid any standing charge on his gas, only what he uses for heating. That is all through what his house...

I'd also say out a similar amount into a pension if your employer doesn't offer one. I'd put money into a Cash ISA to build up a usable sum for a year or two. Having a Cash ISA will allow you to transfer more cash into a S&S ISA - means less cost to buy in. Certainly anyone thinking their...

Normally I'd agree but what I (we?) don't know both the customer and the neighbour; is there antagonism between them? does the neighbour leap on every little perceived issue? will the neighbour claim the dust from cleaning out the existing pointing is causing problems? I may be looking for...

Just wondering why he's prepared to accept the Job? If the customers neighbour is asking for sight of the PLcert that sounds to me like the neighbour will be a jobsworth and cause lots of trouble for customer and your friend. I wouldn't have a problem with the customer seeing the PLcert but the...

I would have said look at the engine mounts or stabilisers.

Eventually, in the last couple of days, received my Statement from HMG. Previous years I've received it much earlier and I'm certain it was called a 'Pension'. The document I received last week called it a Benefit... Is this first step towards the state pension becoming means tested?

There is a Filter lane on at the end of the Road through Britwell onto the A14 near to Felixstowe - I've seen the exact copy of that dangerous action a couple of times there over the years. Sometimes it is made worse when idiots on the A14 think the acceleration lane is a lay-by.

1st layer with the fall (bedded into pitch), 2nd layer across the fall from the low end 3rd layer with the fall - hot seal felt - a.k.a 'Torch-On'.

Think you need to check where the flexible cold water pipe is fixed to the washing machine. Expect a course filter at that point. It may have broke-up and a price of it is now lodged in the inco.omg water valve which is letting a small amount of water through.

Check the hinge side of the doorway is upright with a level (or plumb bob). Hopefully the floor will be square to the hinge side door lining - check if you can. Carefully mark up the door with the amount you wish to remove. Is it top or bottom? I think from your picture it's the bottom you are...
