    Gas boiler service

    I have a boiler which was installed in November 2018, I had it serviced for 2 years to keep warranty. The plumber said it's not really worth it as all he can really do is check emissions. Is it worth annual service now warranty is void and put money to 1 side for repairs? Thank you

    Random tap water release

    Every so often a trickle of water comes out of the mixer taps in my static caravan. I've replaced both cartridges but it's still happening, yet it doesn't happen in my house? What's causing this as it's annoying, especially after changing cartridges. Thank you all.

    Hi, I had a leak and the paint and plasterboard bubbled, I rubbed it down and applied some fillet but it looks awful. What's the best way for a novice to make it presentable as trades won't waste their time with such a small job. Thank you

    Thank you, I'll try it tomorrow. What do I do if it gets hot, won't it just not warm up again when the other trvs are opened? Or, what's next step if it doesn't get hot? Thanks for your help.

    Dirty floor tiles

    My floor tiles have a cement like substance on them where the pointing hasn't been done properly. I've scrubbed it with patio cleaner to no effect. Will this do the job? I know I'd need to reseal, but they look dirty all the time. Thank you
