Thanks, guys. Never heard of Rustoleum.

Thank you Tony and Rob for giving me helpful answers. I didn't have much choice in where I bought the stuff, not having a car or any builders' merchants in easy reach, and I am having a delivery from Wickes anyway, so I chose all the stuff from them. I measured all the pipes carefully and they...

I'm about to replace some 68mm downpipes and elbows, and also the external waste pipes and elbows from my sink and w.m. I see that there are lubricants etc for sale. Do I need any kind of lubricants or adhesives to hold the pipes and joints together? Thanks LHL

OUCH.... £27.49 altogether, and I only need 2 feet of the stuff!

Hi John Got a reply from andythorntons and they reckon it's one of theirs http://www.andythornton.com/en-UK/products/wood-carvings/wood-mouldings/atcamo126/flat-moulding-in-beech I did look at that last night (and thousands of others) but ruled it out. It looks different when painted. I don't...

Thanks for the good advice. I've ordered one from B&Q. With a bullnose edge.

Hi folks. I spent two hours online searching every possible supplier of "decorative embossed mouldings" and went to the andythornton and richardburidge websites and searched every single one of their designs - to no avail. I searched extensively on google images. I've scrolled through...

This is the closest I can find :-( http://www.amazon.co.uk/Richard-Burbidge-Hardwood-Wrapped-Mouldings/dp/B00QANFNN0/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1448489751&sr=1-1&keywords=embossed+moulding

Thanks for the clue, Dave. Have been all over google images and cannot see one exactly like it, so still cannot find where I can buy some...

I have a tall freezer and an undercounter fridge. They are both in perfect working order and still pristine internally, BUT they are both starting to rust. The Indesit freezer is 4 years old. It's completely covered with dense rust spots all over the side (so unsightly that I've now covered the...

I need to buy a new piece, to match. Anyone know what it's called and where I can buy it? THanks

Hello. I want to block off my unused back door. I asked a builder and he'd do it with breeze blocks and wants £500. To save money, I have an: cover the door with tongue and groove cladding (to match the rest of the walls). I'm going to screw battens across the door to pin the cladding to. The...

Okey dokey. Kinda what I suspected someone might say ... cheers.

I have to replace my kitchen worktop and am here to see if anyone has any advice on what type to buy or not to buy. I don't want to spend loads just for "style", but on the other hand I'm not such a twit that i'd put in something supercheap only to end up replacing it in two years instead of...

Thanks Mr H. One more question... if I am going to paint over the cladding with eggshell paint, can I not just wash it all down with sugar soap and then go for 2 coats of eggshell? I mean, why do I need the primer? The kitchen is barely ever used for cooking and is very airy (draughty windows)...

Thanks, Mister. I've been using Zinsser 123 for furniture painting and still have a tin! Happy to work with that, though it's pricey! I just watched the video for Owatrol and read all the reviews. Sounds amazing and I am now thinking about all the other things I can paint after using it. More...

I'm fed up with my kitchen wall colours and want a change. The entire kitchen is clad in tongue and groove (NOT my doing!) and then painted with oil-based eggshell paints - dark red above the dado line and custard yellow beneath. I want to repaint it pale blue and off-white. I dislike gloss...

Just a quick query. My RGI has suggested I buy a EcoTec Plus 425 by Vaillant, a 24kw boiler with a 10 yr guarantee. I just checked the Vaillant website and there is no such boiler.... or is there?
