    Forum Attitude to Non-Notification

    Just recommend them to get an on site guide. If they can't figure out what they need to do from that, they shouldn't be doing wiring, it's as simple as that. As for testing, there are plenty of books on 17th edition testing on eBay or second hand on amazon you can reccommend. It's how I...

    HETAS Engineers a bunch of lying so and so's....

    Hopefully a fair few DIYers will read this and decide to go down he same line as me, when they see what a load of old cr@p the scheme is. A potential buyer could try it on, but there is so much demand for 450k+ houses in my area I would tell them to sling their hook or pay for the labc fee...

    HETAS Engineers a bunch of lying so and so's....

    Thanks for the Concern, I have never burned green wood and never will. The wood was drying out as I have stated after it had been left to dry out for over a year and was only slightly damp due to recent rainfall. Hence drying out before use. Yes, I have a moisture meter. Hence why I was drying...

    A swept brick flue will not catch fire. And I am not dumb enough to burn green wood. It was already stored to air for over a year but was a bit damp due to recent rain. So, again, I ask, what have I done in my install any differently than you as a. So called "expert" would do? Chimney swept...

    Absolutely spot on thanks and just what I was looking for. Only last thing I need to know, will 300mm compacted be enough to cover the pipes? I am planning on covering in a concrete pour for areas of the drive were vehicles will cross and may in fact cover over with some concrete slabs I...

    Drainage pricing question

    Fortunately, we are pretty rural and the nearest fibre optic cable must be over a mile away. Will try and excavate the services I am aware of with a shovel, LPG gas pipe, a few cables (we are on overhead supply) and the mains water supply to the house. What is the minimum depth of 110mm...

    Drainage pricing question

    Sorry, good luck? All I am after is a rough price per metre to dig a hole so I can drop some drainage pipe in, pressure test it and fill in the hole? Not sure it needs a degree in genetic engineering to complete?

    Fitting ledger oak doors - t hinges too big!

    Hi all, Just. Received my ledger doors for our home renovation. Slight problem, the strap t hinges are too big to screw to the 1 1/2 inch door frame to position the hinge in the correct place for the door. This means the majority of the hinge will be attached to the wall rather than the...
