Hi, got a sash bay window out the back of my kitchen. Often wonder if its possible to replace the centre sash with French doors and put balconnette there. Thing is the roof is GRP/OSB laid over the top of previous plywood, it's a little soft due to the OSB. Think any weight would damage it...

Yeah I'd like to help my neighbours, these things can be annoying ... quid pro quo

You might be right actually !!!

Victorian conversion, but has a layer of ... screed is it and the cabinets just stand on it, so I just want to shorten the legs and slide in 1mm rubber but the sheets I have stink so ...

Thanks !!! that's probably the bell, could be good

No idea

Yeah, I looked at that motion sensor LED, but battery runs out after few months or whatever, nobody knows then when crisis comes no battery. Anyway maybe you can help me, is there an easy way to get a feed out of the fusebox to do the lamp. I have done plug sockets and light circuits before...

Sounds good but I need to wire it so it charges, what's the best way to take a feed out of there ?

Hi, I need to put a lamp in the fusebox to see the meters better, what's the easiest way to wire it ? Thanks

Thanks that would be good but pots and pans on the surface would still pass straight through I think

Hiya my kitchen units sit on the concrete floor and annoy the guys downstairs ... can anyone recommend a 1mm odour free rubber material that is suitable to slide under the feet and decouple them ? I got some "acrylonitrile" and SBR, but they both stink so don't want them here. Any ideas ? Thanks !

Yeah well I think so ! I stripped out 4 plastic tubes full of cables that had been in there fore years, and now it completely shuts off readily (it's not stuck or heavy). Also had loads of enginners, half of BG has been here for the old glow worm about 200 times as well as Vaillant Scottish...

@ianmcd thanks, well I cleared that cupboard out to make access better (had lots of cables), but my boiler engineer threatened me with reporting or cutting off gas this morning ... so is there any way I can sort of get a balanced view or something ?

Hi, this skylight has just been installed near me, apparently it's a 30deg opening unit 2m x 1m, motorised. It's 3" from the bedroom wall, 6" from the bathroom window. Those are precise numbers. It's under 2 sloped tiled roofs which bring a lot of debris down. Is this a legit installation...

Thank you for your help

Hi thanks for the response ... do you mean that it did not have opening function ? And are you reasonably sure about that ? There seemed to have been some kind of hinge but possibly that was just to lift from the top for maintenance.

Hi. With this kind of rooflight is it poss to change or repair or remove the motors to lengthen or shorten the opening size? Thanks

Hi. I have a question about an old type of roof light. Having a discussion as to whether this thing was ever designed to open and how the opening would work, size of opening. Looking at the flashings doesn't seem possible. Sorry photos rubbish but got no others. Thanks if any veterans...

I believe that prevention of fire escape that previously existed, and due to the design of the roof if an attempt was made the escapee would have to walk through a very narrow walking route barely big enough for a foot just next to the opening which is more than 2m across and 80cm high...
