Thanks guys foxhole there's concrete lintel above the window. s60tsy sounds plausible. How much should a new one cost? I've been quoted £415 Thanks again Andy

hi all... I'm becoming very frustrated with my landing window :-( I've had rain seeping in around the recess of the windowsill (right and left hand vertical sides of recess). I've sealed everything i can see as a possible cause outside and waterproofed the whole outside wall. I've had a...

I'm completely lost with the replies! Please, in layman's terms.

Hi all We're seen some lighting we like in a `next` store, but on the box it states that we need to use their dimmer switch because of the halogen bulbs. The dimmer switch doesn't match the ones we have so I'm wondering what and why we can't use a standard dimmer switch! Any ideas? Thanks

thanks joe-90 i never thought about that. I could do with sometihng i can spray/inject in to the hole. Don't suppose car body filler comes like that? Andy

Hi all.... The floorboards on t he landing are not very even and have gaps. You can feel these through the current carpet and i'm having a new carpet fitted soon. I've heard of using hardboard to cover the floorboards, but i'm worried about hitting any pipes with nails (if there are any)...
