    Struggling to paint a long MDF threshold

    10 year oil paints have excellent self leveling ability that give a smooth finish. But the cure time could be a year before you can sand out any imperfections and paint again. Oil paints will yellow if not exterior. For door steps, there are special tough door step paints.

    That's because we are in different locations. I did a quick calc. E7 is likely cheaper for me. There is only 1p difference between peak E7 and standard CAP. E7 brings in savings for 7 hours and cheaper standing charge.

    I don't have time for tracking. Also, if the price goes up and down then it's like playing casino with the bills. You could be hit with a big one when you least expect it. I don't use electricity for water heating. The off peak meter count ticks over anyway. That means the off peak applies to...

    I use electricity 24 hours a day. The off peak is not just for the water (storage?) heater. The heater will only be needed if gas fails once every 25 years.

    So long as you have the specs they can make it. It comes down to if you want them. There is absolutely no reason why they can't modernise it during the making process.

    You presumption could be wrong. They could be changing it for the sake of changing it. Changing it would create profit for the insiders who would award contracts to friends and families. Kickbacks then follow. If you have the valve model number, let me check for you if it's available off the...
