I already figured steel or cast iron :D , I just haven't seen any baths made of steel or cast iron in the style I was after, so was asking for someone to point me in the direction of any square, freestanding baths made of steel/ cast iron/ another material.

Hi Flameport, Thanks for the advice. If a plastic bath for that kind of money is nonsense, could you point me in the direction of an alternative bath in the same style that would offer better value for money? Or could you point me in the direction of a bath in the same style (and made of...

Hi All, Jsuta quick question. We are getting our bathroom done have had a price for the supply of a bath (Corran Halycon square freestanding bath) at a cost of £1,300 odd (incl VAT). I think this is a little steep and have seen an equivalent (Royce Morgan - Chiswick) for approx £800 (incl...

Thanks for the replies. I am happy that the correct lights have been used in the bathroom (appropriate IP rating) and I have also used fire rated lights in all areas. So on that basis I feel happy. Basically, because I am selling I don't want any come-back later on either before the sale...

Hi All, I've installed some new spot-lights in my bathroom, hallway and kitchen ("starred" off the exisiting lighting circuit for the original lighting points). I now understand that I should have got an appropriately qualified person to install and issue a cerificate for the bathroom and...

Thanks guys, The two items I'm looking to install are: HBN331E0B Single multifunction oven - can't find much info in this a couple of websites say in neesds to be hard wired in and a couple say it comes with a plug. From what I understand most of these single electric ovens require a 13A...

Hi Guys, Just wanted to run through a couple of things re the electrics in our kitchen. We currently have a free-standing electric cooker that we are replacing with a single electric oven and induction hob. I was wondering whether I could install the induction hob into the socket that the...

Hi radioredcat, Just been up on the roof and taken a photo into the round plastic box on the aerial and your assumption is correct, the connections look pretty corroded. see below. I have put the cap back on, it didn't seem to be split so I assume it just wasn't fitted properly. I'll...

Thanks for the reply flameport. Just wondering where i might be able to get a new cap and some cable from? The cable has a layer of copper foil through it as well. Will the cap be easy to remove and change? I also noticed that the aerial wobbled quit a lot. It is bolted on and has a wire...

Hi, Sorry about the length of time it has taken to reply, it's just taken ages to find a ladder long enough to get onto the roof :roll: . I managed to take a couple of pictures through the skylight a couple of weeks ago and pop up quickly tonight to confirm. It seems that the cap on the...

Thank you for all the replies. They are really helpful. I completely agree that the housing association who owns and maintains the block should deal with it. Spoke with them again today and I am the only one they have logged as having a fault with my TV signal so they won't deal with it until...

Photos as requested. Box in the communal stairwell Set-up in communal stairwell. There appears to be one cable coming fromt he roof and three other cables heading towards the three flats on our floor. The socket in my flat. Note the two cables. Thanks for the help...

:lol: I probably have upset someone but don't think he is likely to have stuck a pin through the cable, but I guess you never know! The two cables apepar to be the same size (black sheathed coax cables) probably around the 6mm size. One appears to be coming into the box from the ceiling...

I had the same problems with my old TV and have just bought a new LCD TV with freeview which has helped until the last few weeks of bad weather. I also use a signal booster which helps marginally when the signal deteriorates. I am currently using an internal aerial and booster which isn't too...

Hi All, I have a couple of questions that I need cleared up. I moved into a flat 18 months ago and have noticed that in high winds or heavy rain the signal goes from the TV. I assume this is most likely from the aerial moving/ bad connection somewhere? I have spoken with the management...
