Sorry but not fully sure as I am a DIYer. And I did look into this. Sorry to say that everyone has different ideas. I personally tried to minimise space at front and back of PIR simply to make sure I maximised room space as every mm counted. I also made sure that there was no air movement by...

I would say yes. My (as a DIYer) only putting 25mm of PIR on outside wall of bathroom significantly reduced condensation on tiles. I used 25mm x25mm wood from Wickes, frame screwed into wall (8mm masonry drill bit through wood and into wall and hammer them in). Used frame spacers to ensure all...

Yes - However I am presuming Chinese cheese bolts is what are already in the chair, which itself is likely from china. I would have recommended better if they were looking to bolt down say a pagoda. Either way - they ordered other bolts (perhaps my ebay or Screwfix A2 Stainless steel...

When I had this issue I also made the whole length of pipe and the fan as straight as possible between the ceiling hole and the roof hole. Looking at you photo I would sugegst you consider mounting the fan on the wall and putting the Duct pipe as straight as possible. SFK

Doh. Although comment stands. And matches your suggestion Why not put light switch inside toilet room.

Always good to have two multimeters.... So my suggestion is this £12 Amazon multimeter has 1.5V and 9V battery tests that I have found worked well (and easier to use than trying to hold a resistor and test leads). Unfortunately no longer for sale on Amazon. But I think old new stock being sold...

What brand dimmer did you buy? And is the led pendant dimmable? But typically best to buy a quality dimmer, and normal suggestion for is the V-Pro (also available at Toolstation and Amazon https://www.screwfix.com/p/varilight-v-pro-1-gang-2-way-led-dimmer-switch-white/94816

Sorry to say that we did not find a fix. (Note that ours is not same machine as yours). And we only later found reason in manual when it mentioned reducing spin speed if drum unbalanced.

My washing machine does that when it decides it is not balanced. Often seems to happen with a single heavy item. It seems to be a normal (annoying) function to save the bearings.

In that case, why not put a light switch in the bathroom itself? How far would a light switch be from the bath or shower? (ignore the sink as that does not count).

Madogkewis Taking a step back for the moment... Do you know how you will physically get a wire from from the new light or from the old pull light switch to that 3gang light switch? Asking as if you did not have a solution to that,(which is often the most difficult part ) then no point...

If you are able to do some wiring yourself.... I have very occasionally fitted emergency lights like these as ceiling lights. When off The green LED makes enough 'glow' to light the hallway and stairs at night. The are operated using the normal light switch. And additionally they come on for...

You are changing from a single ceiling light to multiple (9) downlights distributed across your ceiling. Does your ceiling contain joists, and if yes how do you plan to get cables through them when you have no access from above? SFK

How much do you need. Your bag of builder sand and bag of cement is (by a long way) best value for money. But if you need less than 5kg of mortar, may I suggest pre mix mortar. It is very expensive and should not be bought if you need more than one 5kg tub...

Looking at tool station, the trend fluid is... Synthetic based petroleum lubricant formulated to be used with diamond compounds. Reduces the threat of rusting by up to 95% when used with quality diamond abrasive products, improving the diamond performance. Excellent penetrating qualities...

The two most common classes of honing oil are petroleum based (typically mineral oils), and non-petroleum based (typically water or vegetable oil). So yes water can be used. But what type of honing fluid did you use before? I ask as I would be worried about the washing up liquid damaging your...

From memory, so happy to be shot down. China banned Chinese manufacturers from installing Android on Chinese phones. So Chinese phone manufacturers make their own software (looking just now on Web it seems to be a lightly modified Android). In this case called OxygenOS. More details here...
