I've not seen them Vortex pumps before i'll have to have a read up on them more. I've had a look at the Klargester biodisc which seems like a good idea depending on how good the ground is after digging some test holes. They are quite pricey though. No mains gas also means LPG or biomass so it...

I've seen a plot of land for sale semi rural which has no mains sewage. It's 80m down hill from a road that has a sewer running the opposite direct so joining into it isn't an option. Planning dept. and united utilities aren't ever keen on systems that pump up hill and they also work out...

I'll go with the matt spray finish or a new dish then depending on how bad it is once close up. From what i have read it seems to be ok to remove and refit without altering the signal too much. Thanks everyone.

If i was to replace or paint my ageing sky dish, if i was to remove it and replace it with a new dish is there an easy way to make sure it's set up the same or would i need someone to set it all again and check the signal? I don't have the equipment for this.

yeah its just a small amount off a woven back carpet not a cheap one. I just didn't know if it required a minimum amount of spare to let the knife get a good hold and then to stretch it over the gripper. Thanks guys

Looking for some advice on trimming off a small amount of carpet edge before i peel half the room back off the gripper. Im fitting a new fire hearth in a gap where an existing one was and i need it to match up to the old carpet edge so i might need to trim a bit off and tighten the carpet back...

i used a patio attachment because everything i've read said not to use a lance as it blasts out the sand from deep down which you don't want. It said to only remove the sand from the top half of the paving. it brushes in and looks well but then some parts it comes out or part of it does. Two of...

I can't get the sand to stay in the block paving. I've had my block paved drive down for 6 years now and it was due a clean, i have followed paving experts guide to cleaning and used the patio cleaner attachment (rotating blade type) then let it dry for 3 days and brushed in some kiln dried...

I was serviced annually for 6 years but not for the last two as there never seemed to be anything got done on the service other than what is in the manual that came with the boiler, I cleaned the condensate filter last year but no ones looked at the pressure so ill have a good read of the link...

I never said it wasn't doing it's job i just mean as it is now when i run the central heating it passes or does its job for whatever reason. I was wondering what type of fault may cause a boiler to function fine on hot water but creates excess pressure when the central heating is ran. It will...

Thanks guys. The prv is definitely passing as ive got a clear bag tied on the overflow and it only fills if i use central heating but fine for a month on hot water only. Not sure why that is? Im familiar with most components in the boiler but not 100% on the pressure vessel. Is this something...

My 8 year old baxi platinum is losing pressure when the central heating is running but holds for months with the domestic water. I have eliminated leaking pipes by closing flow and return valves, I have had a bag on the pressure relief pipe and it collects nothing until i run my central heating...

Thanks, I have spoken to someone at romex now who also backs this up. I just didnt want to leave it until spring incase it changes a lot over winter but a decent scrub should sort it back out.

I've just laid 35 square meters of indian sandstone and want to seal it, romex is what paving expert recommends for patios but has anyone used it? I've used lithofin stainstop indoors but not sure how that compares

Thats what i was thinking but wondered if there was a certain way or if thats it.

Does anyone have any tips on how to stop patio slabs rocking on sand after its been whacked and screeded, the odd few i have laid down and find a corner ever so slightly rocking so have to lift it and add a small amount of sand to that carner but I dont want it to move again later on. Also how...

Does anyone have any links to where i can get some patio patterns to suit a 40m2 area i have. Theres four sizes, 900x600, 600x600, 600x300, 300x300.

What is better for a floor in a summerhouse, poly x oil or varnish, I normally use rustins clear matt. Can i apply polyx oil over a stained pine floor or does it need to go onto the bare wood, because i want a slightly darker look than the new white wood flooring. I've also got some Elm...

Is that just normal everyday bleach or a specialist type?

I've had a block paved drive down for the past 5 years and once a year i treat with path clear and rake out moss between the joints. I've always avoided pressure washing because it removes a lot of sand and can also remove the finish coat from man made bricks and flags. I have noticed now...
