They are gravel boards. The photograph is from my property. Opposite side all they have is gravel.

Can I remove the soil and get the concrete / salad and cement mix to close the gap or can I get my neighbour to put it right as it is affecting the enjoyment of the property.

Resiblock anytime.... it's a bit expensive but does the job damn well. I had my new patio done with indian raj blend natural stone. Sealed it with resiblock and never had to worry aboit joints coming out or weeds between the joints. Its the money well spent. I re coat it once every 5 years and...

Hi, I have a house next door and they got rid of all soil, grass etc... because it's too much for landlord to maintain. The property has been unoccupied and the lady who owns does not care. Wondering what are my options. Many thanks LK

Thanks Lucid. Do we get lnb's with multiple outputs? I was doing a Google search and it came up with results of Octo lnb's which would feed up to 8 tv's. Is my understanding right? If I get that going, my areal and amplifier will be redundant I guess and I will get a free view via skysat.

Hello I have old working sky dish. It has 2 coax cable connected. One of them feeds to my TV. I was wondering if I connect the dish to my labgear amplifier in my attic, will it be able to feed all tvs connected in the different room. Primarily, the aim is to receive freesat channels to 4 tvs...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help. I have a wire running from underfloor heating controller to the boiler. Sometimes the ufh controller loses signal to the wireless drayton wiser hub. When this happens, it automatically fires the boiler (to keep the pipes warm) in summer temperatures are...

Hello I am thinking to install a CCTV at home (about 5 of them to protect the property and Garden) I have been lookingat both HIKvision and Reolink (also looked at the Panoroma series on HIKVision and wondering if they will be banned in a few years time?) Can anyone advise which ones will be a...

HI CBW, It was Drayton Wiser Engineers doing troubleshooting on UFH controller. Wiser Hub and Boiler connected to same Spur switch. Happened first time in 3 years. I take it there will be more troubleshooting so just preparing for the future to ensure, we are not without hot water

Hi My boiler engineer advised that Baxi 800 series Boiler has 2 fuses (which he replaced it today) He advised me to keep a few spare just in case if it blows again and he does not have to wait for the parts to arrive as these are only a £2.00 max for a pack of 5 or so. He is a gas safe engineer...

I do not have a $ky box. It's a 10 year old labgear with 8 outputs. I have 2 spare cables from redundant sky satellite which I can take it into the loft if need be. I just want to use the satellite to receive freesat channels
