Exist'g - 300 cavity wall Ext no.1 - 2 storey Ext no.2 - single storey vaulted mono-pitched roof. Between the 2 extensions will be a 300 cavity wall (brick/block) with a door opening at the exist'g house end. To increase internal space (200mm over length of wall) and overcome issues with an...

Floor covering? Use a higher floor underlay on one side. After filling in the channel, of course. Though this will reflect a change in height against the existing skirting between the 2 rooms unless your altering/replacing the skirting. Also think of the door opening, height clearance ok? Door...

Thanks. Would floor/ceiling levels be a problem 'mixing' timbers with engineered? Don't want unsightly steps etc... Using 9x3 timber perpendicular to the engineered joists, not mixing them!

Do you mean like posi-joists? For ease of electrics/plumbing etc.. or cost saving? i.e more cost effective than buying 5m lengths of 9x3 c24 timbers

Looking for a bit of info so shall be asking possibly dumb questions in the foreseeable future. But firstly, For a 4.8m clear span would C24 220x72 at 400c/s be suitable? There will be a NLB wall running perpendicular. 2 storey ext, no bath. Sorry if thats not enough info.

To be honest the invert at the exist'g w.c to G.L is probably too shallow to put a fitting on to then have a rise up to the proposed w.c location. This drain pipe (between old and new w.c locations) will bridge across a pathway! I'm not sure what depth drain pipes need to be buried but doesn't...

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I'm fully aware that the BCO has the final say and may advise differently so best to have options and try to understand what it is I intend on doing to please him. Ah yes, use shortest runs possible so run kitchen sink to outside gulley (shall use a...

It is required to be done per BR's and LA sign off!!

Kitchen sink, fit a bottle gulley, can be connected to the main run on a blind lateral then. I get the bottle gulley, would be outside the kitchen window on the other side of the kitchen sink. 'Connect to the main run on a blind lateral' - would this be connecting to the run shown at the back...

Want to get the heads up on the expected works for this proposed ext. Highly doubt utilising the existing soil pipe to be an option as lowest connection needs to be a min of 450mm from bottom. Being a gnd fl ext would a new stack be needed? 1 cloakroom sink, 1 w.c, 1 x kitchen sink, probably...

No problem, glad to be of some help! Could you post a photo of the part for future reference, it will help others in future I'm sure.

OK in that case I would have to agree that the fault lies with the switch motor.

From the diagram it would seem your model is different to that described above, but these diagrams are not always very clear. Post a photo of part 0441 to confirm, though the description would imply that is the correct part. Have you done any other checks, starter motor, circulation pump...

Its def not a 5 min job and be very careful with those razor sharp edges on the metal tub, I think most have them. Just as well to thoroughly clean everything whilst its apart. I recently had to repair the impellor on the circ. pump, it was running fine but no pressure (well, intermittent but...
