A lot of info to digest guys, thanks. The pipes to make the 3 or 4 zones are readily accessible together with mains electric close by. I was thinking about a Smart Plug on each, but can't see a way of linking it to the boiler when heat is required. Totting the costs up and it looks like its...

Due to cost.

We have 17 radiators spread over three floors in our house, so to use something like Wiser TRVs is prohibitive. However, it is possible to divide the system up into 4 heat zones using 2 port valves (or is there a better solution?) controlled say through Wiser smart plugs and then use a...

I had considered this but I can't print what my wife thought about it. The ground floor is virtually open plan with lounge, kitchen and utility all leading off this family room. Plus access to the back garden is via the utility room.

About 18mm at max

Its not exactly a conservatory it's more a family room with a tiled roof running across the back of the house with small bifold and a window facing the patio.

Structural calculations are being done but it's based on the fact that the facing bricks have three vertical holes in them and so I need to get back to the backing concrete block. I missed freediemecurystwin post. He did link to a supplier which do a 200mm long anchor in 316 so that might do me.

Ahh, OK. The link didn't work on your original response and the next thing was a resin link. Great, so I should be ok. My job is to fix a face mounted balustrade to a brick fronted high level patio. The nozzles which go on the resin dispenser how long are they? In a couple of locations the...

My question still remains unanswered. Is ordinary studding ok to use in place the resin anchors bolts?

Toolstation don't do it in 316 but there are several online traders who can supply.

Hi Guys, I'm not concerned about material specs as I know from my work experience that we used 316 for marine applications. My question is; can I use ordinary studding instead of the usual anchor bolts from Fischer and the like. Is there anything with the resin anchor bolts which make them a...

Don't think they will have the chemi anchors but yes, studding they should have. But 316 studding is readily available, my question is can studding be used instead of the recognise chemi anchors?

Ceramic tiles though durable is not going to make it any warmer, I think the opposite will apply. We have carpet in there at the moment and that fades. No issues with wet from people entering as there is a utility door at the side which goes to the garden. The patio doors lead on to a patio...

As I live close to the sea I've been looking for suitable M10 stainless anchors in 316 but can't find any. Can I use standard 316 studding instead?

I'd like to lay LVT in our sun room. It's previously been carpeted but as there is direct access to the garden it gets abused. The sun room is an old extension with no insulation in the concrete floor so I'm after the best insulated underlay. The floor does not appear to suffer from damp. I've...

Doesn't really need a sketch. We're having a raised patio to the rear of an extension we're having built. Because our garden slopes away the patio is around 850mm above the ground level therefore requiring a balustrade. I want to know if we build a raised flowerbed say 500mm high in front of the...

Were having an extension with a patio built at the rear of our property with planning already in place. Because the garden slopes away the height of the patio will be approx 850mm above ground level. This then requires a balustrade as it is more than a 600mm fall. So I'm thinking can I build a...

The Mafell has a depth setter which goes up to 50mm so it should be able to take 25mm MDF ok. Any recommendations on blade manufacturers?

I bought a Mafell track saw a couple of years ago. It's not had a great deal of use and then only on kitchen fitting and sheet cutting. I'm disappointed that the blade is already struggling on 25mm thick sheet. What's the best recommendation for a replacement blade?

Rang Tap Warehouse. Said they would contact supplier. Not heard from them since. Cut a rubber washer for the face and for belt and braces wrapped PTFE tape round the threads. Worked perfectly and no leaks.
