    Fitting a surface mount basin

    If you fit a surface mount basin to a worktop, should the worktop have a hole cut the size of the waste (40mm) and then the waste 'nut' tightened up to the bottom of the worktop, or should the worktop have a larger hole cut in it so that the waste 'nut' tightens up to the underside of the basin...

    And is there a convention for whether a door opens into a room, or out from a room? My house has most of the doors opening into the rooms, but with some the opposite. I ask because the ensuite bathroom and the downstairs WC are both pretty small rooms and having the doors open into them...

    Guide to hanging an internal door anyone?

    I have done a search and can't find a guide to hanging an internal door, which surprised me as I would have thought this was one of the most asked questions by us DIYers on this forum (Windows and Doors). I am going to attempt my first in the coming week, so anybody got the lowdown, with the...

    Bathroom cabinet switch question

    The switch is a Berker 22102, can't find any technical details on the web I am afraid. In the diagrams the UK version appears to have a transformer for the shaver outlet, whereas the German version doesn't. Does this mean that the outlets would have 240V and if so is that ok in the UK?

    Downlighters...but with low energy bulbs...?

    These are a great qaulity range and my spark tells me they are cheap too! http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/Showers_Index/Shower_Lighting_2/index.html I bought the 'brushed' finish ones and they look super and are American made, so they are of a very good quality. PP

    Small pull switch for bathroom cabinet

    Any ideas where I can get a small pull switch to retro-fit to a brand new Keuco Royal T2 bathroom cabinet? I imported the cabinet from Germany, but it is not UK spec and hence doesn't have the pull switch. Google search has revealed nothing. There must be a supplier who makes these that...

    You may want to have a read of this Moz! http://newindpress.com/sunday/sundayitems.asp?id=SEU20070406090403&eTitle=Interface&rLink=0 Perhaps not such a mad idea after all, although I doubt they think much about the tiler who is going to have to finish the walls! :lol:
