Thanks all much appreciated. Looks like it will just pull out Pipe (I think) was whacked by some scaffolding

Hello, (Sorry for what must be a very basic question) I need to replace a cracked waste pipe. Can anyone tell me what type of connection this is? I was guessing push fit - do I just need to pull it out? Thanks for any advice, Huw

Its a B&Q kitchen so you a probably right. Thanks again.

Thanks a lot mate - appreciate the response. I guess I will need to get the jigsaw out

Hello. Can anyone tell me what this thing is called please? The cabinet door hinge mounts on to it. It's broken and I need to replace Thanks in advance, Huw

Yes doesn’t seems very good idea - for this reason

What’s the unusual detail at the eaves sorry?

Ouch sounds expensive! if it’s dry I’ll try to look at gutters tomorrow

Cheers again. Could you do it off a ladder (rather then scaffolding)?

Thanks for replying. Is is a big job to fit underlay support trays?

I've recently noticed that the fascia boards are damp/wet in several places. Water seems to be leaking through where the membrane meets the fascia (see pics) Its a 1950s house with concrete tile roof I'll get someone out to look at it (when out of lockdown), but would be interested to know what...

Hello, Please see picture. A runner in my freezer is disintegrating and making the drawer very difficult to close. Can anyone suggest how to repair please? I was considering getting some sort of epoxy resin but open to suggestions. Thanks in advance, Huw

No the rooms above are pretty cold also. I have looked at insulating the rooms above which is far from straightforward. Walls and floor are both insulated

Hello, I've recently had an (internal) garage conversion. There was no insulation put in the ceiling - not required apparently as there are habitable rooms above. This in hindsight was a massive error as winter is here and the room is frigging freezing. I was wondering if there are any...

I am in the process of getting my garage converted. The floor will have have a DPM, 100mm insulation and then chipboard on top. I am intending to lay an engineered wood floor over the top. Given that there is already a membrane and insulation, do I still need to get underlay for the engineered...

I am looking to get my driveway replaced and from what I've read I will need to either use permeable block paving, or direct surface water to a permeable or porous surface in front of the home. Due to the relative shortness of my drive I don't think directing the water away is possible. I...

Thanks John. I got someone out to replace the tank. Would you recommend an annual service for an electrical boiler? (I thought they were dead simple!) Is there some annual maintenance you would recommend I undertake - e.g. checking air pressure? Cheers again for the advice.
