Stupid question alert!! I have removed old cracked grout from the join between the ceiling and tiles (see photo) what should I use to refill the gap?

Great! Thanks for the advice. I only fitted a new fan to the existing ducting. I will replace the long section. Now does anyone know what different ceiling inlets I can get? I really hate the look of these ones.

Sorry to get back to everyone. This is the system I have in the loft. The run of ducting is around 2.5 meters.

I’ll have to get into the loft later. 2 walls are external

This is simler to fan in loft.

I’ll have to go in the loft later but the ducting is flexible plastic. The wall is cold. Don’t think it’s cavity as property was built in 1910

Hi, This may sound a stupid question. I have a in line extractor fan in our bathroom. I got a powerful line which should service a room bigger than the size we have. I was going to get a cealing fan fitted as well for two reasons. 1 I can’t stand the look of the plastic inlet and 2 I thought it...

Hi I painted this wall about 2 years ago and this has happened. It’s a internal kitchen wall. I’m going to redecorate it but want to know what to do after I sand it down. Read about using PVA but not sure if that will work with emulsion. Was going to use zinsser 123 to prime wall. Any advice...

Hi, I’ve stripped a wall of wallpaper ready to paint. The wall is in great condition part from a few digs which I will fill. I’ve cleaned the wall with super soap to get rid of excess paste several times. I’m just wondering what to do next? Do I need to under coat or prime the wall before I use...

Got plenty of CT1 at home !!
