    A few droppings in the loft: could this be rat or squirrel?

    I found a few droppings in the loft, not many though, and they're totally dried up. No sign of anything chewed, thankfully. I gathered them all up and took these pictures. From what I learned on Google, they're too big for a mouse. We do have squirrels in the neighbourhood so maybe it's one of...

    Correct spacing for gripper rods on stairs

    Hi everyone, I am about to screw some gripper onto my 12 tread staircase and I'm trying to get the right gap. On the internet, some people say to put the grippers 10mm out from the join between the back of the tread and the bottom of the riser. That results in a very small gap of about 4mm or...

    Moving a gas restrictor elbow?

    Thanks gavgas. the hearth is raised up about an inch and the pipe passes through a gap in the support and over to the fire in the hollow void between the hearth slab and the solid floor. There's no weight or stress on the pipe and it's been that way since forever.

    Moving a gas restrictor elbow?

    Thanks FiremanT. the installation is well over 20 years old. When you say the install is a 'disgrace' are you talking about the position of the restrictor elbow, which presumably is original to the property being built in 1968, or do you mean the routing of the supply pipe under the hearth...

    Moving a gas restrictor elbow?

    Hi there, What would you suggest I do about a gas restrictor elbow/pipe that is awkwardly positioned and gets kicked easily? I've included some pictures. Ideally, I'd like it tucked away, where it didn't get bashed by the hoover. The floor is concrete (screed over blocks, 1st...

    Back to wall wc pan

    Hi everyone, I have a new back-to-wall toilet pan (not fitted yet) and after looking at it carefully I realised that the flush pipe inlet would be left half full of water after flushing because the rim of the pan is too high up to drain the inlet completely. That doesn't seem a good idea to...

    Roofer just cut back felt and left it - what do you think?

    Here a some photos that give an idea of the work done. Fascias, soffits and gutters front and rear and overclad on the apex. From the ground it looks okay From roof level, theres no sign of any felt or drip edges. The tiles run into the gutter, but the felt is draining...
