I have been looking on ebay and screwfix to buy roof rack ladder clamps but as there is so many people on ebay selling them cheaper than screwfix i was wondering are they just as good as the ones screwfix are selling. I know they could be made by the same people but is there any brands i should...

I bought a carpet from carpetright and it was to expensive for them to deliver it and fit it so i thought i would have ago myself. So after a week i hadn't put it down so i decided to get a carpet fitter to do it so i phoned around and someone would do it for £35. So he came out to do it and it...

The leak is not where the radiator valve tail screws in to the radiator it's where the nut screws on to the angled valve.

I removed the radiator before the council plastered our walls so when they finished they fitted the radiator back on but they never used any ptfe tape and the radiator didn't leak. So i removed the radiator to decorate and when i fitted it back on i didn't use any ptfe tape and i had a leak. So...

My car was fixed at ford and it was payed for by the womens insurance. I phoned them up and told them they have changed the wheel trim and i don't know why it was changed as it was scuffed before the accident, I was told he didn't know that it was changed so he took my number and said he will...

No its not the brake dust My old ones had marking on and the new one don't and where the holes are in the trim the old ones ar bigger.

I had a accident and my car have been in for repair, so i had a call to pick it, so when i got there i was told to have a look so as it was raining i had a quick look and it looked ok so i went in and signed the form to say i have taken the car. I then get home and had a good look at the car and...

I went to fit the handrail on the stairs and when i drilled in to the plaster it just crumbled. So if i knock off some of the plaster back to the brick will sandcement mortar be ok to fill the hole or is there something better to use.

I think i should have said handrail and not the banister. So how do i know what angle the handrail got to be.

At the moment the brackets for the banister is screwed to a piece of wood and it looks stupid, so as we are having our landing plastered i was going to remove the banister and piece of board so they can plaster where the board was and then i could refit the banister. So my question is if i use...

He used a core drill (Thats what he called it) and it was making the wood burn.

I'm no carpenter but when the council sent there carpenter out he left his jak pencil behind. I think he may have left it there because it was rubbish as every time he marked and cut something it was also to short and then he would have to use sealent.

The council have fitted a new kitchen and they drilled a hole in the side of the cupboard for the tumble dryer vent hose but inside the hole it's full of jagged edges so the pipe won't fit in. I could have filled the edges down but i thought why should i do it and thought i will tell the boy...

Thanks for your reply. The only thing i know about the filling valve is it's about 20 years old and it's a really quiet fill and takes about 5 mins to fill the cistern up, so if you have a big log and it don't go down the first go you got to wait 5 mins for the cistern to fill up :oops: There...

My grandad had water coming through his ceiling and i found that the flexible hose was leaking on the toilet. I found a new flexi hose with valve but the olive was in the wrong place so i replaced the pipe from the stop tap and then fitted the flexible hose. Now when i turned the water on...

The rads work if you turn them on the boiler but what i want to know is how you turn them on by the stat downstairs.

I didn't have any lights showing on the scr so when i held mode in it showed a rad and said off so i pressed + and it showed 38 and the off went out but the boiler didn't fire up or the rads didn't come on, I then asked my gf if anyone has been messing with the boiler and she thinks my daughter...

We have had a glow worm flexicom 30 cx boiler fitted and where the boiler is they have fitted a box and it says drayton digistat scr wireless system, and downstairs they have fitted a drayton digistat+3 rf. When it was installed i was told i just had to press the up button on the stat until 21...

The council have sent us a letter to say that they are replacing the roof and they took a picture of the colour of the tiles that they would be using so we could choose one. They then said they will endeavour to select your choice, however the final colour choice will be selected on a majority...

We have had a new kitchen fitted by the council and when they moved the sink they left the old pipe going through the wall, so instead of cutting the pipe off can i buy some sort of end cap to block off the hole for now as i was thinking of using the pipe to try and connect something to it so i...
