Hi people I have been informed of a big hole in the side of my house just under the roof line. It is unviewable by myself as I would need to be in my next doors garden to notice it. After investigation I have found its the hole used for a bathroom ventilation fan without the normal cover with...

Hi there I bought a house from developers who have probably done everything on the cheap...including the decorating. My walls seem to be covered in cheap silk paint that has started to peel in places, but seems nigh on impossible to remove easily in others... How do I go about preparing these...

Thanks for the reassurance guys....

Hi people Is this site ok? Has anybody got any negatives to say about them? I have picked a shower to buy and Plumbworld is substantially cheaper than anywhere else, so I want to make sure they are ok before I order it. Any advice appreciated.

Sorry I didn't mean simultaneously my bad. If you mean the flow rate of the cold water then yes that's excellent seems very powerful? Id like as strong a shower as possible from 1 shower and quick to the tap hot water if that makes sense..... I assume its the 'DHW litres per minute' of the...

Hi people Everyone seems to have their own opinion on which boilers are best but I'd like to know if there's one universally admired by most? I have a 3 bedroom property with 13 radiators and I want to run 2 thermostatic showers with the best flow possible. I was thinking probably 34kw? Any...

Ok brill thanks. I have asked the plumber already and he said it won't be a great flow but it cant be worse than the trickle I get from the electric shower now....my hot tap will fill the bath as long as I reduce the flow and that flow is twice the flow from the shower hose when i remove the...

It's a combination boiler (not a particularly good one)... I'm thinking of getting a plumber to tee off from under the bath up into the loft and back down or possibly under the bath and up through the head of the bath.... Can you show me an example of one of these purpose built designs as when I...

Yes they look ideal and I can see how they would work. Is there any downside to them other than exposed pipes and your bar sitting a bit further out?

Hi people I've been looking at replacing an old electric shower with a thermostatic mixer shower and my question is.... Do you have to have a plumber run pipes in your walls and thus remove tiles or can you just have exposed pipes coming down from the loft attached to the wall and into the bar...

Thanks for that!

Hi people I'm about to purchase a new single oven and cant decide between a John Lewis branded oven (Electrolux made I believe) with 3 years warranty and removal of my old oven for £359 Or a clearance priced Beko with a larger capacity with 2 year warranty from BandQ for £325. Which of these 2...

Hi people I'm looking for a new kitchen mixer tap but I know nothing about good/reliable brands. Can anyone point me in the right direction at say a £100 budget? Cheers

Hi people, My toilet flush has been a bit dodgy for a few weeks, requiring a pumping action on the flush handle to get the flush to work. Now this morning the flush handle does nothing there's no friction or pressure on it at all..... Can anyone advise on what part I need to purchase and point...

I'm in Bramcote...

Thanks MikeCip - I see your from Notts too, anyone you can recommend?

Hi people My old Vokera is on its last legs and needs replacing it is a 24HE model but based on my 3 bedroom house with 13 rads I think I need to go bigger, especially as we want a thermostatic shower installing at the same time. Everyone I ask says to just get a Worcester Bosch but I prefer to...

Thanks for the reply guys. That eBay link looks interesting but unfortunately my tap is at the other end of the bath to the existing electric shower and screen.... My boiler is a Vokera compact he (24) Although the hot water is fine pressure wise and heat wise in the kitchen the bathroom like I...

Hi people Finally had enough of my rubbish electric shower and want to try a thermostatic mixer type shower to run off my combi boiler. Can anyone point me in the direction o f a good model that will give me a good deluge type flow from a not too powerful boiler? I have to keep my bathroom tap...

Oh I see, so what's considered a good brand for reliability and value for money as far as ovens go?
