They are just standard pendants but ceiling about to be reboarded anyway.

Oh I didn't notice that. For clarification, what I meant was that there is an image of the three bulbs behind the translucent glass/plastic on the bulbs, but none with the integrated LED. I think the latter, therefore, is more effective. But on the bulb version it is actually glass not plastic...

I haven't bought anything yet, but whilst there's not a consensus on here it sounds like bulbs are a safer option.

I'm looking at putting up a couple of ceiling lights - circular, 35-50cm diameter, in a breakfast room. I like the look of the LED ones with a wooden surround, but I'm unsure whether I should go for the integrated LED ones (no builbs) or a more traditional 3 or 5 E27 bulb fitment. The downside...

Yes it's fitted higher than necessary. I've found an Aqualisa AQ150 which has an adjustable height that I think will work.

Yes that's what I mean. Do you think it's normal to cut the vertical pipe to the desired length? It's not just a post, it's the pipe carrying the water to the shower head

I'd like to replace the exposed shower set that we have with a 2 outlet set, but I don't want to have to change the tiles. I've been looking at the Grohe ones and the inlets seem to be on a 150mm centre, which is the same as the one I have, and the Grohe ones have a movable support for the...

Thanks all - think I will wait for FB or Ebay nearby

The internal doors in our 60s bungalow are glazed (15 panel) and are (now) a Teak colour, but I don't know the wood - I don't think it's pine. I would like to replace a painted glazed door to match and the door is 1981 x 762. Can anyone give me a steer where I might buy one to match ? I know...

Hello I am trying to lift an old tiled kitchen floor (room will be a sitting room) so that I can lay an engineered wood floor. The ceramic tiles are being really stubborn and unfortunately I don't have the threshold height to just go over them. I am using my old Boschhammer SDS drill and a...

One of the adjusters on my Howdens wall cabinet has become disconnected from the thread. Is there anything that can be done - it appears to be permanently fixed to the frame.

Thanks. If I turn the water off at the stopcock, can I just remove this valve and pick a new one up at a plumbers merchant?

we're in a hard water area - so is that likely cause? Is the only fix to change it?

This is connected and this is top disconnected and top tap open

If I disconnect the hose (which I now understand is the inlet) and open the tap - nothing happens.

I have a Grant Vortex Oil boiler that will not fire, so we have no heating or hot water at the moment. The Low Pressure light comes on, so I have turned both black taps on but nothing happens (I was expecting the sound of rushing water). This is what I have done so far: I disconnected the fill...

I was wondering that too. Would I need to get the old vinyl up first (They're very fixed).

I have a small utility room and plan to tile with rubber floor tiles (the knobbly ones). The floor is concrete but is not beautifully smooth, as has had 1960s lino tiles stuck to it. Was thinking of using 6mm marine ply to level it and then the rubber tiles glued to that. If that's a sensible...

I think that the outlet into the manhole has been blocked, but as I need a plumber to re-route pipes I will get them to check. I'm hoping that they can lower the outlet to floor level. I'll put a paving slab over it in the meantime. It's going to have the washing machine over it eventually.

Have just watched his beginners video and quite inspired to have a go. Is there a difference with skimming to first/second coat ?
