    Turf keeps dying

    I had a similar situation some years ago where the grass in the back garden was appalling. I bit the bullet and did it myself after realising that guarantees and developers don't really care once the house is solved and I wanted it done right. The soil structure in your photos suggests that it...

    Alternative Materials for Shed Roof, Not Shed Roof Covering!

    Use EDPM. I used it 10 years ago on my garage roof, which gets sunlight all day, to replace felt and its still perfect. The supplier sold me some adhesive which is white and looks like (and probably was) PVA. Make sure there are no holes or anything protruding like nail heads. Once the roof is...

    Help with website calendar

    It depends on what you might understand as limited. (I'm not sure what you mean by the ISP limiting you?)

    How to tell LED GU10 Dimmable or Not?

    I have some LED GU10's and have thrown away the packaging. I cannot see on the lamp anything to say if they are dimmable or not. I have one I know is and one I don't know for sure. Is there any way of telling, apart from putting them in a fitting and seeing what happens. If I did that will it...

    Shed Roof re-assembly puzzel

    Hi I am assembling a shed that I did not take apart. All has gone well so far but I have a puzzle with the roof. It is in two halves and slots into a cut out at the apex nicely where I can see it was fixed to each other and the end walls of the shed. However the two lower edges appear to...
