Hi All We`re almost finished installing our new kitchen and today with the electrician went to put the extractor hood up and discovered that the 4" ducting hose that goes up into our plasterboard ceiling has come apart, looks like the installer used two lengths of aluminum hose and tried...

Yes, but from your previous replies on the subject of recessed lighting you think many things are useless. So i`ll ignore that comment. I`ll ignore that one too as its been checked to conform to building regs. No it wont. It had recessed lighting for 10 years previously without any problems.

Thanks yeah I saw those. Crazy prices, £9 each. Thats more than my lights cost each, all for a bit of cardboard by the looks of it! ;-) Seriously though, is there a cheaper option. The roof structure is steel and a flat roof btw if that helps?

Hi We`ve had our flat roof extension roof/ceiling redone and i have had the wiring installed for 6 recessed lights ie GU10 type. The issue is that above the plasterboard ceiling is a loose fitted foil thermal insulation. Like this...

I recently replaced some outdoor lights with 3 x 3w (9w) led lamps and they are excellent. They were only £4 each and give the same brightness and colour as the original gu10s. They actually give a cleaner beam of light that the gu10s. Dimmable too. Make sure you get warm white if you want a...

Thanks for the responses. With the led strips power, i came across this auction. That states 10m uses a 12v 4amp power supply, seems to be the same number of leds as mine and I have a 12v 5amp supply. So looks like it could be ok...

Hi All I`m having a plasterboard ceiling put in our kitchen with a cutout centre and intend to put strips of LED Tape to uplight the centre. Something like this.. This is what I have...

ok thanks, it could probably be done but would need quite some work as the soil stack goes outside to a terrace and then a 90degree corner down through the terrace floor. So it would mean knocking holes through the terrace,etc. I would really like to know if there was another easier way. I was...

Hi All I`m just about to start on the family bathroom and am going to box in the pipe work along one wall with a slight inclined soil pipe running the length of that wall above a concrete floor and out to a soil stack to ground level. My question is that the order of the bathroom furniture...

HI all Just about to start plasterboarding one wall in our bathroom , just wanted to check if standard gyproc plasterboard is fine for the job. Was going to use dob and dab gyproc adhesive, prime it and then tile straight over. Just want to avoid any problems with moisture. It wont be near a...

Thanks. Yes I`ve realised now I`ve got home that the hose can be shorter than the one that came with the tap. The monoblock was 340mm high but the hose actually fits in at around 280mm high, so enough for a 300mm hose. cheers

neither sell them at 500mm that connect to a 10mm monoblock
