Cheers for the reply. I’ve only just seen it and I’ll give it a go. Let you know if it works (y)

The claw shaped bit that hooks over the latch is sticking. When I shut the door it just bounces unless I physically push it up into the correct position. Is it repairable?

Sorted, I just drilled two 6 mm holes and it gave me enough wiggle room to fit them. Already had the handles, 32 of them and I’m too tight to buy more (y)

Got some new kitchen handles. The old ones are 155mm centres, the new ones are 160 centres. I was thinking of drilling a bigger hole and getting some black m5x15mm washers to hide the old hole (see pic). Or is there another way?

Nudge the radiator a smidge to the left or right. It might just be rubbing on the brackets as it’s expanding/contracting.

Take the head off the trv, spray the pin with WD40 and use some grips to push/pull the pin out.

I always ignore, copy number and paste into “who called me” website. It tells you if the number is ‘dangerous’, ‘neutral’ or ‘safe’. Then I block them. Got literally hundreds of blocked numbers.

Hope he’s reinstated immediately and those thugs are made an example of.

No real resistance but not sure if the handle locks top and bottom latch. I’ll take the panel off when I get a spare couple of hours. Cheers.

Rear door latch rusted, freed it up with wd40 but it’s not catching/locking. Is this connected to a cable from the handle in the pic?

I’ve just heard they’ve been suspended :mad:

Did he check the air inlet ? Could be faulty flue seals.

Anyone used a tool to tighten basin traps inside tight peds ? Getting on a bit and struggling to get them tight enough with my massive arthritic hands.

I’ll check it out. Thanks

Yeah vents clear, rail is 2000 btu’s and rooms only 2.5 m/2. Got a louvre grill on the outside and it looks like the fan struggles to lift the flaps so wedged them open and still crap, hence the thinking stronger fan needed.
