All done :) Using a club hammer to smack down the final part of the pole was a great bit of advice! :)

ah, ok. Good to know. The general consensus seems to be to cut, so I'll give it a go.

Yeah, it is a good point about the wall. I was wondering this too. I was also wondering whether I could unscrew the top part. It looks like it is a screwfit, though it looks pretty rusty. Definitely worth a try though. I think I will have a go at taking the top section off first and see how I...

Also, not sure if it is possible to remove the pole completely by digging it up?

Would I use the rip saw below ground level? I assume not, as I not sure how I would get the space to do the cut. Unless I did a big hole to the side, I guess.

I am pretty certain it is an old clothes line. There was a bit attached to the house for the attaching the wasing line on the other end. Not sure what the wires are. I think someone has used it in place of the clothes line. It is just my property and the one behind that has these poles, so I...

Hi, I have a large metal pole at the end of my garden. It must be 3 metres high. Photos are attached. I would like to remove the pole, but not sure best to do it. I've read that got can cut it below ground level, but it's not clear to me how the pole won't just fall down when the post is...

All done. It was quite easy in the end. :) Thanks for all the help!

OK, great. Thanks all. I have got some 500m flex push-fit connectors. I'll see how I get on with those. :)

Hey Thanks for the response. So I can't get a push-fit and bend around to the tap? I was thinking of basically getting rid of this second bit of copper pipe.

Hi, The kitchen taps are getting super stiff and dripping, so we are looking to replace them. There is a separate tap for hot and cold, so not a mixer tap. I had a look under the sink and the set up looks pretty odd. It is a copper pipe, connecting to a push fit flexible host, which is then...

lol, it's my kid's bedroom. I need to get them to stop using the damn thing as a climbing frame. :ROFLMAO:

No, it is a brick wall.

ok, cool. This was the kind of thing I had in mind as an alternative to using larger fixings. Thanks a lot!

I think I will go for those two options then. Thanks for the help!

It seems I can get longer and thicker coach screws than the ones that came with the radiator, so that seems like a good bet to me. I really would rather not move the radiator itself. The screws came with wall plugs, so I would imagine they take plasplugs. Never used that brand before though.

Thanks for the response. It's a good point. It's a 1m double panel double convector radiator. The current screws are coach screws, but I am not sure about the width. Probably 8mm width, I would guess. Maybe I should try 10mm ones then. I was just wondering if there is anything I can try in...

Hi, I've noticed that the support brackets on one of my radiators is coming away from the wall slightly at the top of the bracket. It's attached to a brick wall. It's not by a huge amount, roughly 4mm, but it is definitely noticeable. I'm planning to take the radiator off and refit the...
