Thanks! managed to get it all sorted and got a new consumer unit installed... including the ECIR report all for £300.

Thank you all I really appreciate the replies you have given, I do have someone coming over shortly so I will let you know what he says. Regarding the RCD, can the electrician install an RCBO or RBC within the current CU? or do I need to replace the CU?

Hi all, I am renting my property soon and would need to do an EICR. however, I don't want someone to come over and force me into replacing the fuse board if it's not required. The property was built in the 1990's, I have attached a pic of the current fuse board. Can someone tell me if this...

Thank you for replying, are they all standard size? I really don't want to take apart the tank etc.

Evening all, I hope I could get some help, I have a toilet that sometimes does not fill the tank and the water drains to the toilet pan (hope this makes sense). The entry fill valve was replaced a few days ago however it did the same thing, although it has not done it since I removed and...

Hi all, Hope everyone is enjoying the heat! I have some black mould in the bathroom ceiling and in the external walls in the bedrooms I did notice that the windows don't have any trickle vents so I will install them. In the meantime, before I repaint can anyone recommend how to get rid of...

Thanks Woody! will let you know :)

Thanks Woody, the flat was purchased from a family friend and they had not been made aware when the property was sold. I don't believe I received the right information from the management company as they did not disclose the major works - I might pick this up with a solicitor to see if I have...

Hi Woody, and thank you for the reply! Sorry yes, you are right. in all honestly nothing was made aware during the time of the sale.

Evening all, Can someone help me in regards to a LPE1 form please? I purchased a flat where in the form there was no mention of any major works, 3 years later I was hit with a bill of circa 40k, a section 20 was issued a year later and several others. I will consult with a solicitor but do...

Hi all. Managed to get the machine up and running. It was the motor brushes that needed replacing. Can someone tell me if it’s worth replacing the shock absorbers pls?

Hi all Happy New Year!!! I am back home now can someone please tell me how to get the machine into engineers mode? I have tried a few videos on youtube but nothing seems to work. Also is better to view the motor from the back panel or front? Thanks all!

Thanks both for the replies, I have ordered the carbon brushes https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/274754392520 as this seems to solve the issue for many with the same issue. When I return I will have a look at the machine and see what the actual issue is (hope its the brushes) before I order anything...

Hi All, Hope you had a good Christmas! My lodgers have said the washing machine has stopped working, and the rinse light is flashing. The machine fills up, drains however it does not spin. Also, I had noticed the machine has been making a loud noise when spinning. I am away at the moment and...

Hey. Sorry no multimeter can I post it to someone to repair or does that not exist lol? i did play around with it and push the lock into the catch and the spring but it didn’t seem to hook or nothing.

Evening everyone, I have decided to let BMW repair the damage. After negotiating I managed to bring them down from £1,000 to £500 not bad thinking local bodyshop repairers wanted more or less the same price. Obviously it’s a big hit and something I could have completely avoided but lesson learnt...

Hey. I tried this last night. This is the lock that I need, I can’t seem to find it online anywhere.
