I'm going to chop out the rotten base bits this weekend and splice new timber in and then clad with the upvc. Going to get loads of silicone under the base of the...

    Ideal Logic 30 (Combi Boiler) with "PCB Fault" on screen

    With the number of ebay exchange services listed in the above ebay link, for the PCB, I'll bet there are parts on there that fail more than others, and that there may be one part that generally causes failure when the board goes?

    drip from radiator fitting

    Hi Photos show there is no slack on the compression fitting to allow me to get any ptfe tape on. Because it's not possible to move the compression nut back so that it exposes the olive. What can I do?

    Kitchen cabinet hinge off, whats the best way to repair ?

    John, thanks. Good ideas. Door had definitely been opened way too far, pulling out the hinge. May have been exacerbated by the door being closed against the large toblerone shown, putting a leveraging moment on the top hinge. Bottom hinge screw seating is ok. The plasterwork had evidence of the...
