Thanks, obvious question but won’t that mean when I install the threshold profile file it will fall into the gap ? hope that makes sense o_O

Thanks for the replies. I'll be putting on underlay and quick step balance LVT as a floating floor. And butt up against the tiles in the adjoining kitchen / utility ? And no gaps form hallway to living room ?

Hi, Need to raise my currently wooden floorboards by 9.5mm to be level with the kitchen and utility which are currently tiled. A few questions though. 1.) My local timber merchants sells hardwood WBP and Softwood ply, about £4 difference per sheet, which should I go for ? 2.) Understand I...

Hi thanks for your replies. And yeah rather not have a third set of batteries to use. and it won’t get used massively, laying plywood floors as the main project and after that maybe just a few times a year for odd jobs. I was originally going to buy a £30 one :cautious::LOL:

Hi, Looking at installing LVT floor in the next month or two and planning to lay 9.5mm plywood flooring first. I have multitool and circular saw but now looking to getting a jigsaw. Was not planning on spending too much but have been recommended a pendulum one. I currently have batteries...

Hi, Planning on laying LVT (about 29 sq meters) over our current (worn) floorboards for living room and hallway which we had sanded and waxed years ago. We plan to ply all of it to 9.5mm so that it will be level with the tiled kitchen and maybe eventually lay LVT in the kitchen in the future...

Hi, We are very close in getting a new Texecom system installed. The quotes I have got include the installation of the ComIP module. Is it best to wait for when the Connect is fully released / tested and go for that instead ? Both the installers says they need to test it first and won't be...

anyone ?

Hi, Getting a new bathroom fitted next few months and will look to purchase UFH, warmup in this case for the bathroom. The bathroom is upstairs and on joists and wooden floorboards. Now the plumber has said i need to get some sort of board, either hardiebacker or warmup insulation boards. I...

Ah, thanks very much for your reply. So not really something I should do myself but to get an electrician in, at the very least the double check my work ? Not spurred - guess not 100% but socket has two twin and earth cable going into it and therefore part of the ring circuit. There isn't a...

Morning, Plan to spur of an existing double socket to another double socket which will be located behind my wall mounted tv. The planned route will run horizontal for about 20 cm and then straight up. I have checked and this socket is not already spurred. So I just need to channel...

Probably can't tell from photos but that is in the very corner of the room so not end of the world. And the sofa will pretty much be on top of it. Just not a great start I suppose. But dread replacing an at least 3 entire boards !

Hi, Eventually will sand and wax floorboards, so lifted the carpet up today to be presented with a fairly large cut in the floorboards. Looks like it may have been done when the previous ppl replaced the radiator ? Easiest way to repair this, would I get away with sawdust and pva ?

thanks, guess get a builder in first then. luckily the wall i want to move seems to just be plasterboard so 'should' be fairly simple to extend into the bedroom. sounds a bit of a nightmare juggling all the people but will see if it's worthwhile,

Hi, Have 2 'projects' that like to do this year: 1.) Extend our upstairs toilet so it uses up some of the bedroom space. So will require knocking the wall down and moving it. Then if space is there, put a shower in this room. 2.) Extend family bathroom slightly into hall way by moving...
