Hello all I have a concealed toilet with a hidden cistern - the cistern fills to the top and empties on flush ... but never seems to do the job of flushing (especially toilet paper). The cistern is a small one - but has always seemed to work ok ... but for the last 6 months it is struggling...

So you mean rather than place in the middle, offset it so that (eg) there is a tile cut 70cm, the full 100cm and then one at 40cm? It is really hard to visualise how this will look for both options. Y gets even more complicated when you throw in a brick style formation versus uniform

I did as was easier than explaining grout sizes. But question remains

Ok I am away for a week now so will press pause and send pictures when I am there!

100cm tiles on a 210 wall

Wall tiles are 100 wide. Wall is 210. So leaving aside the grout gap, I have a 10cm issue. And I am trying to work out how to best manage this.

Apologies for the lack of technical jargon here but simply put, when I connect the neutral and live cables from the supply side of the transformer (without yet adding the lights onto that that transformer) it trips the whole fuse board (so not the lighting circuit as such but the whole board …...

Correct!

Here is a diagram

How? Place a 100cm one in the middle and do 55cm sized cuts either side?

Hello is it possible to wire the transformer for a set of low voltage garden lights directly into the mains? I have 2 other standard voltage lights outside and wanted to spur off this … so that the lights activate together from a single switch? And to avoid a major cabling job. I tried this...

Hi all I have a wet room to tile, four sides. The room is 210 by 3m. The wall tiles are 100 x 30. The floor tiles are 60 x 60. i am struggling with what layout to use as the main wall at the back as it will need a 5cm cut either side if I centre. Or a 10cm at one edge if I offset. How would...

Hi all have this Honeywell controller http://www.free-instruction-manuals.com/pdf/pa_1149669.pdf Struggling to determine where the connection from the Honeywell controller relay should connect to the boiler. Below is the wiring diagram from the Honeywell controller and below it the boiler...

I have 12 of them and need it finished before autumn!

I need a perfect angle on this cut ... and my circular saw is only 11/2 inch deep. I cut cut both sides and finish off with a hand saw but suspect the finish will be poor and need the cut angle to fit flush to another post. I don’t have a band saw or anything like that. Any advice how to cut this?

Hi all some photos showing what looks like a melted wire connection in my immersion. I would rather not drain it all down so wondering if this the thermostat can be switched out or whether I need to accept a whole new immersion is needed! D

So am I extracting damp air out and a separate inlet / air brick elsewhere? Is this a normal extractor or a Heat recovery extractor fan?

Sink is not on the island but 1.5m away opposite- would need to route the services under the concrete floor if I did this

Hi I have a cellar with damp coming in in periods when the water table is particularly high. It’s rare but when it happens it can fill up! We have an old concrete sump in there which I periodically flush out with a pump. I am going to set this up to pump automatically using a float switch. The...

Hi all I cannot recall every seeing one, but does anyone have any experience with installing a dishwasher in a kitchen island? The island is completely independent to the main kitchen and sits on a concrete floor... so would require the water feed and waste and electric burying into a (cold in...
