Hi all, Today we have found a couple of baby mice in our garden. I have woods behind me, I looked over the fence and seen a few baby mice scurrying about in there so I assume that's where their coming from. I have a couple of very young kids so am concerned about them being out there or mice...

Hi all Just noticed that my broadband cable that comes into the house through am external wall has had its sealant come loose My questions are as follows, Is this an issue in terms of damp or rot? I think my house is timber frame with external brick Is it something that's easily fixed with...

Hi all My wife has just phoned me to say the tumble dryer has stopped working and has an f08 fault. I'll need to look at this when I get in, a quick search indicates this is related to the heater contact being welded shut. Has anyone come across this problem before? I'm hoping I can...

Hi all I have a quick question about my loft, I was just up getting the Xmas tree down and was surprised by just how cold it was up there, it was freezing but also the condensation on one side of the loft (see picture) I remember a few years ago having someone look at this and being told...

The house I'm in just now is the 1st one I've had with a gas cooker. I don't think there's anything actually wrong with it but I'm just wondering if their supposed to be regularly safety checked or serviced like boilers? Thanks

I didn't know that, I'll have a look. Thanks

Just checked the adapter there and to be honest it felt actually hot at one side, I've decided to remove it, I don't suppose there's any plug in rcds you know of that are designed for continuous use?

Yeah it is. I assumed having an rcd downstream of the board and immediately protecting the filter pump would add a level of safety?

The filter plug itself seems ok to be fair

I've made a bit of a mess of my reply to your previous question, my reply is part of the quote for some reason

Yeah there's a single rcd for the entire board

Hi all I bought a fish tank for my daughter at the weekend, it has a filter that has to be run constantly. I'm never a big fan of mixing water and electricity so for an added bit of protection I bought an rcd adapter (non branded, just from local supermarket). I noticed tonight that the...

Hi, neighbours work was done approx 2 years ago, I reckon I 1st noticed this debris around 6 months ago maybe.

Hi, struggling to get a clear picture, this is about as good as I can get from ground level. Any ideas what these things are?

I don't think it's been replaced so just painted I think

Fair enough, I suppose I left myself open to that. What I was trying to ask is what actually happens when a roof is reaching the end of its life, is it a case that for some specific reason the whole roof just becomes "done" and needs replacing or is it normally something else where its more...

I'm using water treatment I think (filter booster or something like that), was told in the pet shop that plays are temperate water fish and don't require a heater

Hi, Just putting a couple of platys in it, no heater just the filter

Sorry for the awful picture quality, it's hard to get a clear photo from ground level. Basically for the last few months I have noticed there are 2 "things" on my roof (highlighted in picture), I initially assumed it was something a bird had dropped there but since they haven't moved in months...
