True but there is nothing we can do unless I demolish the brand new conservatory that cost over £4K for the extraction fan

No, there is no extraction fan in kitchen and no possible to put one as right outside the kitchen is a conservatory.

I’ve done a couple of small re-roofs 6-7 years ago and they cost around £3000 each. Now I have this bungalow and had two quotes one being double the price of the other. The one that is double is by a company that did my gutters and they are fantastic but they try to go into re roofs. The other...

Yes it is fed from lights, i switched the lights off from the CU and it went off! Good point I will print some warnings with my label printer. I'm tempted to install an MK weatherproof socket so it is sealed against moisture and grease.

Both hob and cooker hood are made by Bosch. I can’t see any references on the hob for minimum heights.

Sorry one more question is it better to flash the switched socket or can I leave it surface mount as it is. It’s only on 1.5mm cable and fed from the lights.

The manual said minimum 550 height for electric and 650 for gas

It’s a rental, not my house and yes not expecting a fault too often!

My electrician did not put an isolator for the cooker hood. It’s all plastered now and painted. Now this is a recirculate hood and it is open at the top. Can I leave a normal socket as he did and if there is a fault all we need is to climb up a chair and reach for the switch as o can put it...

Anyone knows what type is this old UPVC hinge and if I can find a replacement? The pin has come off.

Ok mistery solved the cylinder had a little grub screw that wouldn’t let it out. I had to remove the two hex screws to remove the Sbd plate as it would not otherwise remove it either from the front or from the back.

I'm having a new kitchen install and use 40mm a Mcalpine trap with a small 40mm pipe run ending in a compression elbow going to the waste pipe. Do you use solvent weld or push fit pipe that connects to the compression part of the trap? It probably doesn't matter but what would you do?

I’m wondering if there are any problems with using push fit fittings and copper pipe that has been stamped as in photo. Could these engravings on the copper pipe allow tiny amount of water to pass through? I might be getting paranoid but they did not use to stamp the pipes. I bought this from...

I am trying to replace this cylinder and don’t seem to be able to. I have done on all other UPVC doors in the house but this one refuses to come out is a new door only one year old. The tenant replaced the keys. I can turn the key ok and it locks fine. I have even removed the handle. Could...

Anyone know if the Aquaflow square 114mm gutters are compatible with the equivalent Floplast range?

May I ask, what do you guys recommend, I am between a few options to stop the noise. 1. Insert a pressure control regulator valve to reduce pressure and if that does not work, 2. Install a small expansion vessel...
