What do you mean by 'plant-on' strips?

Hi Joe, Your advice was spot on. I am having problems with the humidistat already. The reason I chugged ahead with all this research is that I'm one of those people that like to breakdown a situation into its basics, and gain new knowledge and competencies along the way. I wanted the...

Hi all, Please look at the pics - and suggest how you might tackle this cowboy job. Guy that fitted new loft ladder - left Gaps around the hatch. Hole at ceiling level - 69cm x 68cm (ish). Dust getting in, heat being lost and drafts getting through. Our two year old suffers from asthma.

They are saying that. They will only accept their own PF for contract. But I wonder, where does it say this in the T & C's. Also, is there anyway around this technicality? Is it something that would stand in court? I guess this is my point. They find a problem. They fix the problem...

Guys, I promise I will put up the quote (with personal details omitted). But I am not in for the £800 flush. Just for now, may we please go with what's in my last post (third one back). What is clear is that there is debris in the system. I would ideally like to do a powerflush from a...

So this is where we are my friends, 1.The central heating system is old, and the water is rather black. Should I risk a power flush? Are there ways to do a power flush, but with reduced risks for an old system? 2.Which filter would you recommend. I've heard about so many. BG are saying...

Hi all, My boiler (Ideal H30 - 6 years old), has been ruled beyond economical repair. They tried to sell me a new install, cost = £2900. I have their formal quote in writing. They recommended a Wocester Bosch (model 30si) for this house in quote. After this - I did research. We...
