hi I've just had 2 rooms plastered in one room after applying a mist coat the plaster has blistered in a sound wave pattern in a small area of the ceiling. Please see the picture. I have used the same paint in both rooms so assume it's not the paint. When I rollered this area of the ceiling...

Hi I've just had an extension with newly plastered walls & ceilng. In the bathroom I used Wickes paint for new plaster with 10% water as the mist coat then followed by 2 coats of dulux bathroom paint 12 hours later. Hopefully this should be ok. Stupidly I then applied the excess bathroom paint...

Hi I have a Fagor FDO900X double oven which is very temperamental! Sometimes the oven gets to the required temperature other times it doesn't despite the temperate gauge on the oven stating it has got to the set temperature! I replaced the fan element a few months back an everything worked...

The problem I have is the wall in question is right on our boundary and I doubt our neighbours will be too happy if we knock down :(

Hi I’m looking to add a second floor extension above a previous ground floor extension but before paying for a structural engineer I want to understand what the options are regarding the existing foundations. The ground floor extension with a pitched roof was built using the old single skin...

Hi I have a problem with my ADG7560/2 dishwasher, it stops within the first 2-3 minutes of any cycle but occasionally runs a complete cycle with no problems. I'm trying to find the procedure to run a test cycle to generate the error codes but I can't seem to find online of the buttons to...

Forgot to add, I've cleaned the rotary arm and the dishwasher does work on the rinse cycle so error codes 5. & 6 look red herrings to me. Just tried to run a full programme and it stopped 5 mins in!

I thinking managed to generate a fault code by holding down the programme button then pressing start. The led above the start button flashed 5 times then flashed 6 times. I shut the do and the dishwasher I assume went in to a diagnostic cycle, when it beeped I opened it and the reset button...

Thanks flameport, that makes sense as the rinse cycle completes successfully. Assuming the rinse cycle only uses cold water

Hi I have a Whirlpool ADG7560/2 integrated dishwasher which is 3.5 years old but its started to stop mid-cycle. I've run through the error cycle diagnostic but I got no error code. It stops normally within the 10-20 minutes of any cycle, does not beep nor are any lights flashing. Any ideas...

The cap does not have a seal in it. I've got 2 of these lockshield valves and neither has a seal. I've added an o-ring to see if that helps

I think you might be right but it's not that easy to cut it out. I've added some pictures to show why. Tempted to sand it and skim with other filler

I did put the cover back on but it still leaks. The leak has slowed overnight so maybe the limes scale is enough to seal it

Hi I've just reinstalled one of our radiators and as soon as I opened the lockshield the lockshield started to leak from the spindle/screw. I've tried to adjust the screw slightly in the hope is would stop but no luck. It's a fancy Quinn straight lockshield with an inverted screw as the...
