Unfortunately not as yet as it's a clients' tenant (doing him a favour) i did organise a plumber to go in but only got the answer posted in my first post, so haven't seen it myself. All I know is that the main part of the cistern is behind a panel. Will try and get the client to speak to his...

I'm looking for a replacement syphon for an Armitage Shanks cistern which is a 2 button push flush but having real problems finding the part. Any help would be appreciated. There are two code numbers on the inside of the cistern SV1967 and SV4567 but these don't seem to relate to anything...

Now why didn't I think of that. ;-)

I emailed B&D directly, as I had no joy with one of their service agents. Although the response was quick it didn't yield a complete solution as the belt was a continuous one ie no breaks, but gave me the inclination that the handles must be removable, which they are. First I undid the...

Sorted and repaired...easy when you now how.

I recently repaired mine, I did post on the forum to find out how to do it, no replies.... but an email from B&D put me on the right track. Virtually every part can be brought from www.mtmc.co.uk and can be fitted yourself, just search for WM825. The belt went on mine, not a major issue...

I have just sourced and purchased a new belt drive (see dia. 109) for my workmate, but for the life of me can't see how to fit it. The old one became brittle and snapped so can just be pulled out. I have had the Workmate for over 5 years, if not longer, so out of warranty. I can’t for the...

I did my roof not long ago (Sept 08) with a EPDM diy kit, great product and would recommend but.... with a word of caution. Some applications require you fix an edge trim to the gutter edge, mainly for cosmetic features and I agree it looks a lot nicer, but here is where the caution comes in...

Have since spoken to a builder regarding what blocks to use, although brief, he suggested celcon hi-seven blocks. Are celcon cheaper than thermalite? I was initially going with 140mm but now want to go with 100mm blocks taking into account the size of build and height are hi-seven or 7n...

Builders, Friday night, pub! sounds familiar, anyway as I was down the pub on Friday and I had plenty of recommendations, not all helpful but one thing that did come up was what deluks said earlier, why not lay another foundation to match the existing? Well, as money is of short supply...

Permaroof.co.uk Maybe expensive depending on size but will last 30 years+ and can be laid in one piece very easily by yourself. I'm looking to rebuild a shed and luckily have an off cut from my kitchen/bathroom that will do nicely. Replaced the felt god knows how many times. My flat...

Thanks Guys. The shed is only going to 9.8m/sq so no planning needed, it's not going to be a gararge (no access whatsoever) just a shed containing all my crap, paint, garden stuff etc. All it needs to be really is watertight and protected from the elements, had a few things ruined in the one...

Hi Noobie here with some questions. I have an existing timber shed at the bottom of the garden and am thinking about knocking it down and rebuilding it, so I have a few questions. Starting point There is a concrete base/plinth already in situ with an extended wooden part making up the...
