Thank you for your replies, the model number is ET350BW. I have tried e spares but they cannot help but will now try buyspares. Thank you.

I have a Lec fridge freezer, although old, it is working perfectly but the seals are splitting. Is it possible to have these replaced? I would like to repair if I can because the present fridge freezer is just 48" high and fits in a small space, I cannot find a replacement to fit at this height...

flameport, thank you for your reply. I had looked at steel conduit but I just assumed it had to go underground. It will be going right next to paving and steel seems to be the best solution and not underground which will save me some work. Because of the logistics, it is not possible to have a...

Thank you for your reply but I am not asking what wire to use. The unit already has the wiring attached as per the manufacturer, it only needs a three pin plug with 3 amp fuse to be fitted. I was asking what armoured conduit should be used to enclose the wire. Thank you.

I am putting in a replacement pond filter which has a much longer cable and it will be about 4 metres away from the garden wall socket, (protected by a RCD Timeguard). The previous filter was in a different place not needing the long cable. I need to run the new cable under part of the garden...

Thank you, I can see the screws holding the basin underneath. They weren't removed because the plumber didn't think to do it, just went straight over them!

I have had a new basin fitted in my bathroom and it has left some areas around the basin needing new tiles. Some tiles were broken (which are now partly behind the new basin) and unfortunately these tiles were not removed before the basin was fitted. Can anyone advise the best way to remove the...

Thank you everyone for your replies. I have fitted the new ethernet cable from router to the TV with freeview and it works well. I am going to see if I can get round the issue of freesat to this TV with extra wiring rather than the wi fi socket. Thank you all for taking the time to respond, your...

Thank you both for your replies, I'll bet you're not as confused as me with all these wires! Yes, I meant the present ethernet wire is connected to the router, I can see there are spare network sockets at the back of the router so I will connect to one of them as you suggest. I just didn't know...

I have run an ethernet cable (under the floor) from my computer to a TV in another room to sometimes use catch up TV. This TV is connected to a satellite dish outside so I receive Freesat on that one. Can I run an extra ethernet cable from my computer to another TV, this TV is in the same room...

Thank you. Also, I did like the bank joke.

Hi ericmark, I can quite understand all your frustrations mentioned. Not quite the same, my partner died 18 months ago and I have had to put up with his relatives not seen for 25 years preventing probate, dodgy solicitors just helping themselves to money from the estate and taking their time...

Ericmark, Thank you for your comprehensive reply, for many years I was a C & G assessor and could only assess those levels lower than mine (alas not electrical!), so your comments all made sense. I realised the letting agents would take a cut, but didn't realise just how much and £228 is far...

Well that would save me a lot of money wouldn't it!

Thank you for your reply, I meant that he was an electrician accredited to carry out EICRs but thank you.

Well, this has been a learning curve. I have now found out the original electrical inspection was carried out by an unqualified person, this was on behalf of the Letting Agency - £228. At the end of his inspection, someone else came in (and here I am being generous) for 10 minutes supposedly...

Thankyou Taylortwocities, I shall ask on Monday and insist on a copy. I appreciate all the helpful information. x

Thank you to all that have replied. I am new to this and these certificates are becoming an eye opener as to what I can and can't do. I haven't been issued with any certificate setting out the issues so will ask for it now. Many thanks again for taking the time to answer for me. Dibs x

I have had an electrical safety check done on a house which has been left to me and I am going to rent it out. The certificate has not been issued because some work needs to be done e.g. small spot lights replaced in the bathroom, new earth wire put in from mains and a new light socket in the...

Thank you for your reply but it is for a retractable line, if the pole is 2.5 - 3 meters above ground I will not be able to reach it to take it down.
