Hi,
My kitchen has just been refitted and the final job is a new floor. The sub-floor is concrete and the cabinets and white goods are currently standing directly on this surface.
I want to fit electric underfloor heating mat with vinyl tile as the finished flooring. I'm intending to lay...
Hi,
Thank-you both for your replies. With the benefit of hindsight and all that I would have waited for more suitable weather, but here we are.
To answer your questions, oldbutnotdead:
I taped over the 3mm gaps with Duct tape and then bandaged over the top
The board size is 8' x 4'...
Hi,
I suppose I should really post this in the diy disasters forum, but I need a bit of advice/help.
I've replaced my flat garage roof with a warm deck as it was converted (badly) to a habitable room by the previous owner. I decided to fibreglass the roof to finish it and, not having done...
Hi nematoad, did you get anywhere? I'm now faced with the same issue and (obviously) looking for solutions! At the moment I'm considering extending the roof over a box consisting of vented sofits and fascia boards.

Thank-you for all the advice. In the end it was just too much of an angle because the height of the spigot on the new pan made it impossible to turn the angle in such a tight space.
Instead I opted to install a new soil stack outside and take everything straight through the wall. Much neater...
This looks like it'll do the trick:

Although it does say for "old BS1213 WC pan" - would that have a different spiggot size to a new pan?
Thanks for the advice. If I used an offcut of 110mm pipe into the junction and then a swan-neck connector that might work, but only if I can shorten the length of the straight run on a swan-neck. Are they able to be cut down any? There always seems to be about 100-150mm of straight before the...
Hi,
I'll post a photo of my predicament in due course (done, obviously!), but basically my new toilet needs to be about 100mm closer to the stack than the current toilet. Both toilet's spiggots are rear exit and are at 90 degrees to the waste stack's swept 'T' junction. The current pan...
I have a small bathroom which is in need of a signifcant upgrade. The trouble is, the walls where the bath needs to go are tap end and one side brick, foot end straw board/strammit (sp?) board, but there's only 1690mm available for a bath.
Should I buy a 1700 and gouge a slot in the strammit...
Hi,
Not sure if this is a dumb question (first post, so please be gentle!) but I'd like to fit a shower mixer to solid wall in my (very small) bathroom; I don't want to fit any 'fake' wall and make the room/space even smaller, and I don't want to channel the pipework into the wall. The ideal...
