Hi All, I have just moved into a new property and noticed whilst up on a ladder this hole to the side of the lead roof (above a bay window). Annoyingly it is somewhat new, but a tile must have fallen on it. Any suggestions on how to patch it? There are no water leaks inside the property. I...

Hi All, We have just bought a house and it had a recent extension in 2022 (so will be modern construction methods). My problem is this, I have a 77" LG G2 ready to go on the wall but I have sockets already in place, on this model the bracket ount is at the top and the bracket is very flush...

The MCB is a 32a for that thing (sorry my dad has been relaying messages to me, and every time it changes). So now I have looked there is a 63a 30ma RCD but the specific one for this circuit is a 32a MCB

Thanks, I just realised I made a mistake in my description (and have now corrected it), it is a 63a RCD, presumably this will ok?

Thanks ree

Hi All, We have just moved into a house that recently had an extension built. Basically it seems that in the utility part of the extension, the wiring is connected to a 63a 30ma RCD in a new consumer unit. On this single ring, there are 3 double sockets. The way I plan to use the sockets are...

We currently have a vinyl floor that extends to the back wall under the kitchen units. Is it best to cut the vinyl back so the washing machine and tumble dryer sit on concrete ? Or will it be fine on the vinyl? Thanks

It is about 14 months old, and that must be what it is...nothing else makes much sense. I will message the sellers and see if that is the case.

Hi All, I have just moved into a new property that has a wireless pyronix enforcer alarm. Now the first issue, I can't engage the alarm 1) It says 30 - Car "tamper on input" . So it seems this is either a loose case or a faulty battery, I naturally went into the garage and found a contact...

Hi All, I am looking at a property right now and pre-empting some of the survey points. The pointing seems to be missing in small places and "interestingly" patched in other areas. Does this still look serviceable with a bit of gap filling, or not really and needs to be done. Equally this is...

Hi All, I am just looking at a new property and noticed the fuse box looked a bit old and surrounded by lots of older looking 'stuff'. How old do you think this consumer unit is and anything that worries you about it (apart from the wiring to my eye looking a bit unkept!)

What is also interesting, but perhaps in tolerance, you can see the different coloured tiles. I wondered why they were there. But seemingly they had some movement and maybe the tile cracked, so they found a replacement put those in and you can see the thicker grouting around those particular...

We are looking at a property and it had an extension 2 years ago (the now typical thing where the back is extended out to create a large kitchen/entertaining space with big sliding doors at the back. There was a big RSJ put across the original back wall to allow this (the extension is about...

Oh yes that's a good point, there is no existing thermostat

Brilliant, thank you

Hi, My parents have just bought a NEST (3rd gen) and want to replace their existing LP722. It is a Y plan system with a Drayton Mid Position motorised Valve. Can you advise the mapping of these from the LP722 configuration to the NEST connections. Thank you!

Brilliant, thank you, no other bridges or any thing like that?. Seems like I may have got this one right.

Hi, I have moved into a property that has a Hive System (just the basic one for a combi i.e central heating only and not water )installed and I want to switch it for my Nest 3rd Gen. Presumably N to N, L to L The earth seems to be hanging there, so I will need to check the other end of the...

Perfect, that was it. Much appreciated.
