Hi folks I'm trying to fit a cls door lining but because I'm taping and filling rather than skimming, the lack of skim (circa 2 x 3mm) means the door lining protrudes 3mm each side. What's the best way to deal with the protrusion? Cutting 6mm off the timber is going to be fiddly and risk...

Cheers guys, have gone for it with an outward opening door.

Hi everyone, I'm refurbing my downstairs bathroom / cloakroom and need to install a small stud wall and door lining at the entrance. The old for was a bifold to avoid hitting the sink inside, but not keen to go down that route. Do is it acceptable to have an outward opening door instead? I've...

Cheers mate. Yeah it's certainly that age of house!

Hey fellas, My bathroom extractor has stopped working so looking to replace. Broken one is a Manrose 41379 timer version so looks like 100mm size. In terms of replacement I checked Toolstation and Screwfix as a convenient and cheap option but they're coming up about £80 compared to this...

Thanks guys. Do you reckon I could keep the plastic collar thats currently left on the clay pipe (see pic in second post above)? Tried to get it off but seems pretty solid and don't want to damage the clay pipe in the ground. The plastic collar has an inner diameter of 130mm but not sure of any...

Update, managed to get the cracked clay bit out. Latest photo below. Any advice on how to connect the two now please? TIA

Morning all, I've had a bit of water ingress under my house (observed in the crawl space) and have tracked it back to the soil pipe outside. Picture is below but essentially a cast iron pipe dropping into a clay collar which then drops into a clay pipe and these two look to have a rubber (?)...
