Ty but i wasn't really asking about the gardening side lol just the Decking side. As i say in the O.P we're leaving the garden till later. This is soley about the Patio/decking :)

ty! Tbh we're not doing the garden at the moment JUST the patio. We grew wild flowers at our last house and only about 50% grew but they looked lovely! Lol no, these weeds aren't wild flowers they're just weeds! Prickles/stinging nettles etc. lol >_<

Ty! We have gravel out the front so i'm gunna take the table out there and try it lol!

We do have stones/gravel out the front which we want to get rid of at some point. Wouldn't the chairs/table be a bit unstable though on gravel? Ty for the idea!

Really?!?! We used a few calculators and all came back about the same. I may need to take a deeper look into it then ty!!

Green really. The original plan was to wild flower bomb around the outside of the garden and have grass in the middle. We would leave the patio/replace it for sitting out in the evenings or maybe even getting a fire pit. :)

I mow it about every two weeks and if anything it's got worse. The grass has almost gone now tbh Sadly. .

Well.. Seems like a lot of people on here don't believe me lol However, looks like we are BOTH wrong/right. After seeing some of the pictures on here (showing PSI gauge on the wire/hose) I thought i'd made a mistake so just went to check it again. I unwound the hose fully today and it IS the...

Ty for the reply and ANY help is welcome. That's a good idea tbh and hadn't thought about that. However, the quote i'd got was actually just for the materials (Cement/Sharp sand) for doing the patio and not the slabs themselves. I was going to get free slabs off of FB. I asked on reddit and...

hi. Sorry to start off with this but we moved into a house last year and sadly since then we've had a string of bad luck. My wife became ill and had to give up work and i've had to reduce hours to take care of her. This will be like this for 3-4 years due to her illness so money IS very very...

Hi. No its not. I check the cable everytime I use it and after. It was fine before using it and when I was putting it away (lifted the log) it was damaged under the log.

Thank you! So would heatshrink make it waterproof etc? It's hard to see if the metal armouring is damaged as it's just the fabric sheathing under it.

Hi, no, sadly it's the power cable. One end has a plug on the end and the other plugs into the jet wash.

Hi there. We have this power washer (2 years old) and sadly The outer cable looks like it's worn away and the fabric sheeth(?) inside is visible. Its only been used 4-5 times and earlier this year, whilst cleaning the front garden a log fell on it (we have a few random ones around the garden...

While i agree this isn't always possible. My old flat had switches, in the kitchen, which were not easy to get to unless you were double jointed lol. It doesn't help that alot of appliances have extremely short cables so they end up sitting infront of some switches which also make it somewhat...

I hope it's okay to put this question here as it IS about electrical items AND plugs etc. I am having a debate with a friend. This family came home to find their house was on fire. The firemen said it started because of the Airfryer. They're adamant that it was switched off at the wall BUT...

Sorry to ask a 'nooby' question but I've asked in my local DIY shop and they've sold me a dud (second time it's happened) and I no longer trust them. I have a very slight mobility problem with my right hand. I used to use a razorblade to strip the wires when ever i'd need to however, since my...

Ty! It'll be for a year maybe two at most. Would you even bother with adhesive/Tape?

Must admit we did think that but we were advised not to lay them directly onto the tiles as while it looks level it would eventually show up through the offcut. They also said that adhesive wouldn't stick to the tiles. Is that correct or were they just trying to get us to pay for a fitting? lol

Hi there. We moved into a house last year and we believe the family before had a dog that used this hallway as it's own possible toilet. We have tried everything to clean the carpet but the stains just 'wicks' through again. We even paid for a 'professional' to try it and they ended up...
