    Removing a leylandii hedge

    I would cut down and then hire a heavy duty wood chipper for about £70 per day, it will eat your hedge. Bag up and take to your dump.

    Retirement.

    Getting out and about for a walk in nice surroundings has been good for us. We joined the NT, it’s been a good investment for all seasons. Lots to see in the NT properties and lovely gardens to enjoy. We look and book long weekends up and down the country and then visit NT gardens or properties.

    VAX Blade 2

    We have the above hover. 10 months in and the brush head failed. It’s belt driven and when I had a look, the gears bearing was worn meaning it got hot and made a horrible noise. Call to VAX, and a new head sent free. I said the hover was not being used incorrectly and it appeared that this...

    Open garage door from mobile phone

    Being able to open via an app is handy. The old remote was used as another way to gain entry from outside after the house door was shut with no keys so locked out. So as an example, a family member wants to leave a parcel, your not home, he calls you, you open the garage... Making use of a...

    Open garage door from mobile phone

    Haha, I had X10 back in the day. Anyway, I can’t comment on other smart openers but Meross has an auto shut if you wish to activate plus other options so the days of leaving the garage door open are on the way out if you smart automate it.

    Open garage door from mobile phone

    As this thread is just over a year old I thought I would add my comments as I’ve just fitted a smart WiFi garage door opener to our old Chamberlain system. I fitted this new add on today. The old up and over garage door, Chamberlain operated remote failed a couple of years back and as we are...

    Ring Doorbell and Cam

    I’ve got a Ring doorbell 2. It’s hardwired but is available as a battery powered unit. You can buy an extra set of batteries. I had the Ring doorbell 1 years back when it first came out, never buy this unit. So Eufy make a similar doorbell to Ring. It reads well and is cheaper, also make other...

    Hive battery or wired plus Muggles question

    True, Hive shows for a short time. You can increase or decrease the temp by a minimum 0.5 either at the thermosate or from your smart phone / iPad or ask Alexa if you have one. The Hive app is easy to navigate and shows the house temp by the day in 30min bites, month or year.

    Checking advice for a Bosch Washing Machine tripping RCD

    I would look at the interference capacitor. This little £20 item was my problem. On my machine it was very easy to remove and replace. I started by checking the connections of the power cable for any damage then after that the next thing was this capacitor. Can't easily check it but and mine had...
