So, that wall is plaster skimmed for the most part and then lined for the smaller part? Or is it skimmed the entire length and then lining put on top? Would MDF make for a good replacement for solid wood lining when it comes to installing 3 lever mortice dead locks etc or will it be easy to...

I've never known the full wall thickness to not be lined. It would look odd wouldn't it any other way?

Factor of 3?

I honestly don't know and it's not mentioned anywhere and not easy to weigh unless I bring a pair of scales to the building site and Mr standing on it as I'm not living at the property yet.

Can I have some views please on using MDF for door linings and fire linings. Will pink 25mm fire linings be sufficient as I know wood linings needs to be around 30mm or 32mm. Also is best to splash out and us moisture resistant ones everywhere despite it going to be painted white? How do I...

Yes that is the one. John there is a risk that my car when parked in the garage, my left front tyre (therefore the heavier engine load bearing weight) will either slowly go over it or park on top of it as it's the correct position where my car will eventually come to a stationary stop. Not...

The whole car is not going to put its weight on one wheel. Whilst I don't know what the weight is on one wheel most tyres including mine say that the tyre can take 650kg. It just feels soft when walking over this drain. Curious to know what others experience when fitting manhole covers.

I bought this Clark drain cover from Wickes for my garage manhole. Seems quite soft when walking over it despite it saying it can take 650kg or whatever. I’m worried about eventually driving my car over it which is positioned where the wheel will be stationary on it. Are they generally ok...

Would you guys in know, opt for Daikin over Panasonic?

Thanks. Are these for both internal and external or one of the two? Can you or anyone personally recommend any black American wallnut door suppliers that I should consider?

Hi I'd like to know what size width doors (both internal and external) are generally available in. I know that 27" is usually for bathroom doors, 30" (762mm) is for the majority of internal doors and 33" (838mm) is for wider disabled access doors. Is there a size wider than this (without it...

Yes I was considering 24v and also I was told to run the cable from the driver to different sections of the length of the LED strips.

Indoor for around the walls in a bulkhead and ceiling.

Could I please have some recommendations for a colour changing LED strip as I’ll need to buy this in quantity circa 70m.

Was it worth fitting?

Is that a serious question or are you being sarcastic?

Correct, no bath or shower in the proposed W/C for the garage (JohnD do you have a WC in the garage too?) We just plan to have a 1.5m by 1m partitioned room with a back to wall toilet, sink unit and then hang a central vacuum system on the wall and potentially this bulky ventilation system...

My boiler and hot water storage tank (mega flow type) will be sited in our internal garage. I'll be making a small 1.2m by 1m partition in there to house and fire protect a heat recovery and ventilation type system that will be on the inside of an external wall and we might put a toilet and...

Yes, that's the issue, I do prefer the darker shade of American black walnut and concerned it will fade. Here is an example door we like. https://www.todd-doors.co.uk/iseo-b4500-walnut-door

Interesting thanks. The American walnut doors you get off the shelf from LPD, Todd doors etc, they will all fade but they have a lacquer coating which prevents it or make a very difficult to re varnish or stain again. Regarding the comment on hardwood, perhaps it was a blase coming for me...
