£400 for a 550mm unit. Found out I cannot have a hanging unit cos the pipes are not in the wall. I ended up clear silicon sealant around the base where it meets the floor. That'll do for a while at least. Thanks.

I put a kids dart board up years ago and when the darts misses, they put little holes in my door. I have patched the paintwork temporarily with a grout reviver pen, cos its tip can get into the holes with white paint pretty much. How can I fill these holes with minimal sanding etc etc. I...

Nope. Thanks

Hello, I have a MDF floor standing 550mm rectangular sink/vanity unit. The vanity unit tucks up under the sink. Since the MDF is now expanding where the unit meets the floor because it is impossible to wash myself without water going down my elbows and onto the floor, the unit is going to have...

I brush cleaned the drains in the bathroom because the water was backing up in my shower and basin. There was the usual black slime that I know about, but, there was also opaque thick harder than jelly, softer than rubber stuff that also came back with the brush. It reminds me of when I put...

Yep, but are there any blinds parts available that the makers/installers hate because the parts last too long?

How is it that no-one developed UV resistant vert blind plastics? I am not talking about the blinds themselves, rather the plastic fittings like the weights, cords, hangers. See me s that they are very susceptible to UV degradation over a few years.

I took the door off to change the direction the door opened, removing the rollers and fitting them opposite ends because adjustable rollers have to be at the top.... Only to realise that the door stops in the rail itself are hard screwed in and cannot be adjusted, so the door would not open...

Any examples to be bought? All the adverts I look at show no feet. The local currys has no double under overns for me to physically look at either. Thank you,

I might need to change my double under oven. The current one has feet and I need another one like this. The floor is uneven, ergo the need for individual adjustable feet. Any for sale in UK? Thank you.

I have no idea why most of my shed roof joists are showing wet, nor why the wooden wall at the roof inside is showing wet. Could this be something to do with ice because it has been freezing here for the past week, only heating up a bit yesterday? The roof has that soft felt on it inside to...

No replies on the carpentry section so moving this to here. Hopefully will get some excellent advice here. Old shed, weatherbeaten shiplap boards. Thinking about thin metal cladding sold on Amazon over top of boards. Means don't have to paint it again either cos I painting it today / tomorrow...
