Hi all, due to paint a room this week, having attempted to carefully peel off some stickers (using hairdryer etc)..I'm left with lots of bits as shown in the picture; the paint has been pulled off down to the plaster What's the best way to deal with this? Thanks,

Is there anything that would identify it? There is a pipe coming up from under the sink (although its a white speedfit one), think one of the issues is that there was an extension to the kitchen in the 70s so things have moved. I have the plans, but they don't match what's here now so either...

Er, pass. What's it look like? If its under the floorboards then no most likely The only way I have to shut off at the moment is via the tap outside, dirty horrible thing!

Alas, in ten years I've not been able to find it. I kid you not.

Hi all, after turning off water outside (washing machine tap is broken as I discovered to my "surprise") I noticed the new washing machine was making quite a bit of noise when stopping filling. I didn't put two and two together until today and duly turned the tap outside down a little - this...

Hi all, I have a new kitchen sink tap to install. The new tap comes with x2 servicing valves and flexible connectors. I've attached a picture of how the current tap is connected: As you can see it has two copper pipes going into some speedfit type connectors. My questions are...

Who the hell knew they existed? Amazing! :mrgreen:

Alas it's the end of the cupboard

Greetings all, one of the screws in a kitchen cupboard 'door' hinge had worked itself out a few weeks ago, basically the hole had enlarged itself over the years so it wouldn't go back in and stay in. Now, the weight of the cupboard door on one screw at the top has pulled it out. My...

D'oh. I'm guessing it's a lighting circuit currently. What I should have put really I suppose is; does this job need a sparky or is a simple case of remove silly light and hook up new one; which apparently it's not! :(

Greetings, I currently have an outside light that switches on/off via a internal switch. I'd much prefer to have a PIR outside security light instead of the current silly thing. My question is can I just remove the current light and wire up a outside light? Or is it far more complicated...
