Thank you. I understand. He spoke to a builder who was working in our area . That was only 2 weeks ago and "workman" turned up on end of last week. The builder comes every morning and stands on the drive and chats for a bit The 2 blokes doing the work could be described as zoo escapees . One...

what do you want to use it for? What's going in there? Just the washing machine ? If that's the case and nobody's going to be going in and out a lot to check clothes in a dryer or use the loo, then is it worth the expense of connecting it to the house? We've just got rid of the garage door at...

Thank you The Home owner is changing that window to a flush one apparently. I don't care about his weathering (and he won't care either) I just don't want any walls or the roof to come down onto any of my family or our property. yes , skew nailing at both ends of the rafters. What's the...

neighbour has blokes replacing his flat garage roof with pitched roof. Single brick walls with a utility room at the back .. Pictures aren't the clearest so apologies for that. The old roof covering is still in place. the covering is done, as are some of the joists , especially at the very...

We created a bump out into the bedroom part. It was the width and depth of the door, plus about 100mm, The door opens into the bump out rather than into the en suite or out into bedroom floor space . We put built in wardrobes either side of the door bump out so we didn't lose anything...

Did you contact Building control or planning? It's building control who deal with building regulations? We had an existing utility area at the back of our garage when we bought the house ( 1960s) It was single brick and had no insulation or heating. Wasn't a useable space at all. We looked at...

Do you know what the plants are? If they're non evergreen perennials they usually die back in the winter anyway so what you're looking at could just be last year's growth. As others have said, depending on the plant they'll start getting new growth in the bottom soon . I've lost my Tea tree...

My first thought was where is your DPC in relation to the block paving ( and the wall)?

Thank you for clearing it up

Thank you I think you're correct about it feeling warmer when the rads are convecting ,regardless of the room temperature on the stat. And yes, maybe the Neomitis does have fewer cycles on tpi. I'll try and take note. More difficult with the boiler in the garage The Salus instructions were...

Thank you for breaking it all down! Seems I'm a dim wit as I can't see anything in the don't think the boiler ( a Potterton Titanium 28) does have opentherm , but it is fully modulating. Too much going on in the elderly parents department ATM and feeling somewhat , but I'll attempt to answer...

And the other thing I'm curious about is something that the Salus called " span" which could be set to either 0.5 or 0.25 ( °c) No such info about the Neomitis but reading around maybe it's 1c ? No wonder we're feeling chilly The best temp control and " comfort" we had was when the Salus...

I posted recently regarding our non functioning Salus wireless thermostat. The bloke replaced it with a Neomitis RT7RF Plus. Not been that happy with it as the optimisation mode doesn't seem to work and there's only the option to pre set 2 temperatures, ie one for "eco" and one for "comfort"...

Ok. Hoping someone can help here. The guy installed a Neomitis RT7RF Plus. Said it was good , but regarding setting it ( by sliding bars and turning a "not particularly easy to turn" wheel isn't a patch on the Salus, plus there's only the option for 2 different pre set temperatures which are Eco...

Had already tried new batteries but thanks anyway Agree re Salus. It's never even been able to keep the correct time and loses about a minute each day.

Model is RT50RF Seemed maybe yesterday as we noticed the temp in house was dropping below the set temp, but turning the set temp up and then back down ( on manual ) seemed to work . It must have been working overnight as the heating came on this morning on auto but then it seems to have...

Thank you!

how did you fix the plastic trim along the bottom where the curve is? Pins or glue? We've got some 2 part strong as s... t mitre adhesive but you only get one shot at a job Thinking the trim's flexible but will always want to go back to straight . Thanks

The ones on the floor are easier to deal with. When you're in the shower the ones behind the sink are really noticeable and have decades of gloss paint on them. You know what it's like once you know something's there
