    Lead mate colours

    Hi, my builder is advising that he uses Everbuild lead mate to fill in mortar that has come out between lead and a top stone on my roof. I believe they do this in grey and black. Does anyone know of an alternative in sand/beige? Thanks

    Cracked grub screw in toilet turn knob door handle

    I have a couple of identical handles in other toilets in the house and the grub screws turn ok (not cracked). Short of sawing it off I don’t know how to get the handle off. The reason I need to remove it is the screws are loose and also it needs oiling as the handle is stiff

    Cracked grub screw in toilet turn knob door handle

    Removing 1000l expansion vessel

    Yeah sadly I think this is the case here. I’m reluctant to damage the plaster work and potentially crack the tiles as it weighs 187kg/30 stone Just unsure whether it’s a mad idea to cut it in situ or not

    Hi I’ve replaced Euro Cylinders before, but in my new house the French doors have a central pillar attached to the slave door that isn’t screwed in on the side.
