Hi all, Not sure how best to achieve this, I'm trying to make a cut out in my skirting board to fix over part of the hearth of my fireplace. Picture attached of the area in question, I'm sure there is an easy way that I'm just not figuring out! Thanks

Thanks both, getting this sorted next week.

Hi all, My lounge has a concrete subfloor and I'm looking to lay laminate over it. The lounge has a small extension on it and where the original floor leads into the extension it slopes downwards by around 5mm + or -). I'd like to confirm that the best option is some self levelling...

It is set to 60c, I'll turn it down 5c and see if it's different in the morning.

Hi all. Had this pump installed today and I wasn't expecting complete silence. I was thinking there'd be some vibration but this thing squeals/whines the whole time a tap or shower is running in the bathroom. Is this right or not? Pump is installed next to cylinder. Thanks

Hi all, Preparing to gravel my driveway and need some opinions on the type of membrane I will need. I now have clay after the excavating I have done and so the sub base will need to be heavy duty. I want to make sure that none of that sub base mixes with that clay and so want a membrane...

This worked. The lights now work as they should. Forgive my stupidity, you told me to do this a few posts back but my silly brain didn't get it! I appreciate both your help on this matter and for your massive amounts of patience!
