    How to remove protruding metal around hole after drilling

    An 8mm hss drill bit from toolstation is £3.58. If you want to use a file then I'd use a round needle file personally but I'd imagine one will cost more than the drill bit.

    Hob connection check

    Think you need to take a photo of what's actually behind the fcu, if he's just used Wago's to join the 2 cables and none of the screw terminals on the fcu faceplate then the cable won't be fused by the fcu.

    WC into understairs pantry - nightmare

    The flexi is a problem as the ridges in it catch the more solid stuff that goes down the toilet and slowly builds up till it causes a blockage. The 90 degree is completely smooth internally so the weight of water forces everything along it. And that's without the rat consideration. Im only a...

    WC into understairs pantry - nightmare

    The pictures look like you can remove more of the wall to remove the need for the offset connector. Get yourself a 90 degree pan connector, fit it to the toilet with the outlet horizontal. That will then attach to the white 110mm pipe you've already got, remove whatever wall is stopping it...

    Ideal Logic Combi 30 boiler

    You shouldn't really have the front cover off the boiler. If you've not used the taps thtlat isolate the boiler in awhile the it's likely they won't work and will still allow water to pass. Your issue is likely to be either the expansion vessel or heat exchange vessel, both common issues on...

    DPF removal

    It is an mot failure to do anything but replace it with a working unit, you'll need the car remapped to delete it which is easy enough for most cars nowadays. You'll need to either force a hole through it from end to end the diameter of the exhaust pipework or cut it open and remove the...

    WC into understairs pantry - nightmare

    Sorry but you've pretty much made it worse by including a flexi. Judging by the last picture you've way more fall on that pipe than you need, if you had less fall you'd be able to get all the pipework inline alot better and lose that offset joint aswell.

    Relocating soil pipe and inspection chamber

    It's going to be seriously expensive especially given your not going to actually gain anything. There's no reason for there to be any issue with your sewer but if your after piece of mind ask your neighbour if either they have a cctv survey showing your sewer from when there sewer was moved or...

    Do these compression need changing?

    Ok hopefully you can make sense of this, Remove the section of pipe circled in yellow and put to one side. Remove the blue filter, and both it's plastic fittings. Remove the copper loop to the right of the filter all the way to that Iso valve next to the blue line I've drawn. Get a 15mm...

    Is the direction of flow through the filter from left to right or the opposite way?

    Do these compression need changing?

    Could you take a photo of the pipework to the left of that picture, the blue bit is basically installed in a loop so it's possible to tidy up the pipework further

    Do these compression need changing?

    If there not leaking then no, I'd probably clean them up with a bit of emery cloth as then you'd know any future build up is a leak but it'll do no harm leaving them.

    Downstairs toilet options (looking for advice)

    You could get a socket bend which would allow the pipe to follow the line I've marked in orange, you could at least then box that bit in and have a chance of making it look reasonable once you repair the stair.

    Would you pass theory driving test today? Try.

    I'm not suggesting I wouldn't stop and I have previously but given the theory test is supposed to be about the knowledge required to drive safely then whether you know anything about first aid or not is irrelevant

    Would you pass theory driving test today? Try.

    Anything related to first aid, there's no requirement to stop if you come across an accident or to take any action if you do stop so why you should be forced to learn about any of it to pass a test to drive safely is beyond me.

    Would you pass theory driving test today? Try.

    47 put of 50, still annoys me now as it did when I first did it for my test that your expected to know things that have zero relation to driving safely.

    Is the dividing wall a cavity wall? To meet the fire requirement both the wall and ceiling will need to be either pink fireboard or a dual layer of 12.5mm plasterboard either option will then need plastering too. You'll need to speak to the building inspector re. the pipe openings, at one...
