Many thanks for this, much appreciated, gives me an idea of what to expect.

Hi, not asking for a quote here, just a basic idea of what I might expect the costs to look like before i start getting quotes in. Thanks

Hi all, I have a small dormer approx 2.5 metres wide similar height, with a sloping flat felted roof. The exterior is painted wood weather board which is on each side of the dormer and on the front around the main window. The boarding is looking pretty tired now so I am looking to get the...

Hi, I just wondered if anyone has successfully polished out light scratches / haze, on high gloss glazed porcelain floor tiles. I have tried t-cut and glass polish but no joy. If anyone has had success doing this it would be good to know how it was done. Many thanks.

Thanks all for taking the time to answer, will use the extension lead and see how it goes.

Hi all, hope you can help. I have a double socket in the wall. From one of the sockets the washing machine is connected and from the other I would like to run a separate single fridge and single freezer, probably via an extension cable. Is this ok to do? Thanks

Thanks, I did wonder about the air gap on the Megaflo, I did look at the Tundish and although not dripping, it is wet to the touch. The instructions seem fairly straightforward to recharge the airgap, so may give that a go and see if it does anything

Recently noticed what appears to be water hammer in the pipe work when using the shower. Its a loud vibrating noise that last for approx 4-5 seconds stops and then starts again after about 20-30 seconds all the while the shower is on. Doesn't do it when the hot taps are used. In the downstairs...

Hi Just to provide a final update on this. The section was cut out and replaced today and I'm glad that I did so; the 15mm feed was almost blocked, the pipe between the feed and the pump inlet had 3-4mm thick scale around it and the 28mm pipe section between the vent and the feed was worst of...

Thanks gasguru, the pump over is not happening on setting 1 now, I think the warm water is due to the blast of water everytime the boiler shuts off as it maintains temps. I guess this is still pump over but at least it not continuous as before. I know I need to replace the vent / feed section ...

Yes, that's bad! When bleeding the radiators the water is clear, the few I have taken off and blasted through had a fair amount of brown/ black sludge in them

Not great, that was clean on sunday!

Also think I've just figured out why the water is still warm. Took the thermostat up in the loft. I turned up the heating and the pump switches on, I hear a gurgling coming from the vent pipe but no water, when I turn the heating down and the boiler switches off a quick blast of hot water comes...
