Hi all. I have a modern style house with a garage attached to the side and it has a pitched tiled roof. The garage is only one skin of bricks thick but I want a door in the back if the garage to be able to get bbqs e.t.c. out easier in the summer. An external upvc door would fit in the back...

Hi. I live in a modern three storey house (10 years old). My kitchen is upstairs and I'm starting a refurb of it soon. I want to replace the 22mm chipboard on the floor for 22mm solid wood floorboards. They are fit over an I style joist. Now the problem I have is with regard to sound...

Hi all. I'm after a wireless non - programmable digital room stat for my hallway which I can hook up to the wifi and control when I'm out e.t.c. Can any of you guys point me towards one? The reason I want it to be not programmable is because I already have a siemens RWB29 clock set up in the...

Sound. Problem solved, thanks.

Ah right in which case no need for any pressure gauges?

Forgive my naivety (I'm a sparky) I was under the impression that a heating system had to have a certain pressure in the radiators/system etc. If I bleed them I thought they needed topping up?

Hi Im just in the middle of fitting a new bathroom in my house. I have fit the bath but think I maybe have made a mistake. The bath has three walls around it and goes tight into the gap. Now it's all level and siliconed but I have realised that when I have come to start tiling I haven't...

I've got some of those mate. I'm gonna leave it for the minute if it starts leaking in the future I'll change the inserts and use a regular compression valve.

With regard to using compression iso valves I do believe you have to still use an insert on the plastic pipe which slightly reduces the bore anyway? They seem OK so far. And tbh if I do get any trouble I can get to them anyway. It's the rest of the house I worry about all CH plumbed in plastic...

That remains to be seen. All good so far. Been plumbed in plastic for years now without fault.

Hi. I'm currently doing a bathroom renovation but I'm in need of a bit of advice with tiling. The walls in my bathroom are moisture resistant plasterboard with a plaster skim. I really like some large format tiles I have seen and they are 600 x 300 and 9mm wide. Now I believe that 20kg/m is...
