Hi all Looking for advice how to fix/stop creaking stairs. We live in a 1930s house so the stairs are pretty robust but gradually over the past few years the creaking has become worse. I've looked under the stairs and the previous owner had already put in some wedges so not sure what the next...

Hi all, I am trying to reduce the reoccurrence of moss and mold on my kitchen extension pitched roof. I have heard an adhesive copper strip can help, but they seem expensive. Would getting a much cheaper length of copper flashing work the same? I wasn't sure if the more expensive copper strip...

Thanks It's more the skimming of the plasterboard that I want to avoid - unless you can paint straight onto plasterboard nowadays?

Hi all, I need to insultate an internal wall that is outside facing as it gets really cold in the winter and condensation runs down. The room is small so I want to limit the space lost as much as possible. Will a 25mm PIR insulation board with 12mm MDF be sufficient or should I go for the 50mm...

Nope literally nothing. Been in the same place untouched since being installed (apart from a bit of dusting!)

is that something that happens with age of the rad? Just wondering why it has only just started happening now after 4 years since being installed.

No it literally sounds like someone is tapping the rad with a hammer about every 30secs, so it's not like the ticking on pipework (that I unfortunately have in one of our bedrooms but cannot access the pipes!)

No it's a rad in a kitchen extension so no TRV, just flow and return so no temperature adjustment TRV head

Hi all, I have a rad that has suddenly started making a loud knocking noise when the heating comes on, usually last about 5mins. It's a relatively new rad, installed 4 years ago. I've tried adjusting the flow and return but this hasn't stopped the knocking. Any idea what might be causing this...

I could swallow that with the Tower pans as they were in a 50% sale so part of me thought it might be because of customer feedback with similar problems, but the Ninja pans were expensive and high quality

Hi all, Recently my dishwasher has started damaging the coating of pans in a short period of time. I do understand that even 'dishwasher-safe' pans will show signs of wear and tear, however we bought some decent Tower pans six months ago and parts of the coating quickly started showing signs of...

Thanks all, after digging around on the internet it would seem a cheap and useful solution is to glue some U-shaped rubber gasket around the base. Just bought 4m on ebay for a fiver!!

Hi all, The bar stools I have are really marking up the Amtico flooring in the kitchen. They are swivel bases (big round base) and I have tried protective pads but due to the limited rim of the base they can stick to they just keep coming off. Any suggestions on something else that can be used...
