Hi there the front elevation of my property is single glazed and i am looking to have it double glazed bit by bit. I have had a quote for a flush sash window, but noticed it doesnt seem to have, what i refer to as ‘bones’ running horizontally and vertically between the windows. The glazing man...

Thanks madrab, i shall go and have a forensic check to make sure. You’ve put my mind at rest re the holes though.

I’m just worried i will crack the bath somehow. I’m pleased you have told me that i may struggle though...saved me keep looking. Thankyou

Hi there, i have spoken to whirlpool no joy. That said, when i said whirlpool bath, its a generic term. Cant remember who made it...20 yrs ago! Thanks for your reply.

Good Morning I am trying to source a replacement light housing for a rather old whirlpool bath It looks like the picture below Thus far have only found to fit hole sizes of 40 mm and above and daren’t cut hole in the bath. Any suggestions please?

Thanks Woody. Bugger...too late for that now then...without reconstruction of whole wall.

Plus....the dpc is at the bottom of the wall at ground level. So the situ we have at the moment is parapet wall, adding coping stones (after new balc floor laid) plus painting of weathershield on outside. The question is...do we put (or ask the roofer) to put something between the engineering...

Ps just looked them up...looked like cardboard? Can the be placed over engineering bricks and under the coping stones we are adding?

Thanks. Not sure what a cavity tray is? Dpc there though.

I am having some coping stones fitted around a parapet wall around a balcony.( we have had a bit of weather based water ingress last year) Am wondering if double weathered or single would be best...ie would the double make the rain go down outside of the wall and cause more trouble there? Also...

Woody. Thanks they are promenade tiles, being laid on felt. All the water should go down a drain in the corner if thats what you mean? They are these ones...

Noseall. Think my roofer is being lazy then as he says he will just lay them back on after re roofing and that they dont need to be stuck. I was suspicious, hence my question on here.

Thanks Bonkers. Have you ever heard of just laying a promenade tile rather than glueing?

Thanks for the reply. What are your thoughts regarding not securing the tiles please?

Oh blimey...even more worried now!
