OwainDIYer - thanks for the reply, there are no lights on the unit at all. Do you mean circuit breakers/fuses within the shower unit or in my main electrics?

So, the shower head continually leaked when shower was off, then there was a little drip of water coming from the bottom of the unit, then one night my GF was running the basin tap and when she switched that off there was a scream from the shower and water pouring from the unit!!! i switched the...

i got the scart switchable adapter and it worked fine. I plugged the yellow video cable into adaptor and into back of projector, i plugged the red and white phone cables into back of my stereo. When i switched the freeview box and projector and stereo on, everything worked - except there was a...

Cool, thanks for the reply - i figured there would be a simple solution! just something that a tech-noob wouldn't know about! i will head to Maplin to look for one :)

i have got a Dell 2400 DLP projector and i am struggling to get it connected so i can watch TV on it. I can connect it to my laptop with a VGA-VGA cable - works fine. I can connect it to my DVD player with the yellow video cable - works fine. I cannot connect it to my Samsung TV, after...

Last year i helped a mate put loft roll in his loft. We then laid loft flooring to use it as storage. His missus has now said that we need to sort it as things that are stored up there get mould on them. Is this a ventilation problem? My mate thinks the answer is to put insulation at rafter...

very helpful video, thanks - i wish i had the thought of looking on youtube now! i have for most other things!!! thanks again everyone

i (think) i am using the 25mm ones and the plaster is only 18/20mm in places. I guess i will be drilling/banging with a chisel at the weekend! Do i just repeatedly hit it until bits fall out sufficient to get the box in?

I have installed some metal back boxes on the side of my very old chimney breast. I chipped away the plaster back to brick but the back boxes still stick out a bit. Can you get narrow back boxes or do i need to chip out some of the brick too? Chipping out brick sounds messy and tricky! Eddy

i already have the Document A tables but more and more frequently i was being told by B.C. that my member sizes (oo-er!) were over stressed and need to be increased...thanks freddymercurystwin.

Do we REALLY Have to pay for them??? does anyone have a PDF version or know where to get one? thanks Eddy

that planning jungle website is an interesting one - anyone a paid up member? is it worth it? i suppose that will depend on how many contentious application you undertake! i like sticking it to 'the man' and love reading about appeals that overturn the planning officer decisions! - does that...

thanks again freddymercurystwin, if i wanted to construct a dormer on the front elevation - would the planning application be a householder app with £172 fee?

thank you all for your replies. I am going to read the document linked by wessex 101 and come back... i think i will be telling the client that if he wants a dormer - we need a planning application - will this be £172 as for extension to C3 or £385 for a full planning app? if he doesn't want a...

I am trying to find out whether an application would be needed to convert a loft space of a 3 bed small HMO (classC4), into a new bedroom and re-arrange internally to create a further new bedroom - thus becoming a 5 bed small HMO (class C4). if this were a dwellinghouse i beleive the works would...

i think i might try the filler on the areas that i am not happy with, and if it still doesn't look great, call a professional thanks Eddy

do you mean a plastic trowel to skim and a sponge float for the final run over? Eddy

my other thought was to get a professional in - how much would i be looking at? 3.5x4.5m ceiling Eddy
