    Damage above Artex

    Apologies if in wrong section New house and shower tray in ensuite needed some fresh sealant. Below it in the lounge the artex was very slightly flakey, so we've removed some to see if there's any sign of water damage. See pic below. It's dry but there's some holes there and filler by the...

    Boiler upgrade

    Yeah previous owner said they had a small drip once or twice which got fixed, but no other issues with it Out of curiosity how much would it be to replace with a newer cylinder?

    Boiler upgrade

    Thanks for the replies so far. Rusty might not be the best description. It does have some around the bottom connections but not the tanks itself. The insulation could use some love though. Attached a pic, see below. Should have added this from the start, sorry There is an overflow pipe from...

    Boiler upgrade

    Just going by age and looks, I suppose. The cylinder is operating OK, bit rusty here and there, so would rather not tempt fait and get a whole new system

    Boiler upgrade

    Evening all We're in the process of speaking to plumbers about boiler upgrades. Would like to post here and see what others might opt for in terms of a good solution House built in 96, 3 bed detached, approx 10 rads. Heat only boiler (from build we believe) located in kitchen. Gas meter...

    Hoover tumble NFC connection

    Yup so I'm kinda lost on why they would use this on a tumble dryer

    Wet brickwork

    Started raining and can see where it's dripping from some dropped broken felt. after some time this is going into soffit and running along to the where it meets the wall. Don't know why felt trays weren't fitted in the first place but they should sort this

    Hoover tumble NFC connection

    No, thankfully there are buttons. Hence why we're scratching our heads when thinking about how useful wifi/nfc is

    Hoover tumble NFC connection

    the only pro for it would be letting you know when a cycle is finished, water needs emptying etc. Our wifi signal is strong from the garage, so no issues there. I agree though, no need for it really. NFC doesnt seem fit for purpose though given the range

    Wet brickwork

    There's no damp in that section at all, it's dry. Water is evident underneath but to the left of that part. It's coming from the soffit

    Wet brickwork

    Yeah had another opinion and seems that corner section is not the issue at all. The felt under the front row of tiles has dropped and also broken in some sections. They think some water that gets in past the tiles is then able to drop onto the top of the facia/soffit. It then runs left down the...

    Hoover tumble NFC connection

    it's not advertised as a wifi dryer, so this warning about using 2.4 band was strange. There's also no wifi config option at all, so it must be a buggy UI in their app or for other wifi models Yeah my phone was touching the device for NFC. Didnt work on my Pixel but did on the wife's galaxy. In...

    Hoover tumble NFC connection

    Hi all Just bought the HooverHLEC8LGB-80 8kg condensor dryer. It's in place and ready to use. Tried connecting via NFC using the hoover wizard app but no joy. App asks for QR code - does not find with a scan. Added the serial number in and it asks for purchase date. Done. App says wifi should...

    Wet brickwork

    Yeah I'm not convinced the water is even getting to that gap at the gutter edge. Checked this morning and it's mostly dry in that section and directly underneath. Majority of water seems to be further back and from under the soffit/facia edge Anyway, lots of rain due later so for now I've got a...

    Wet brickwork

    Maybe just an extra bit of flashing or eaves protector that slots in with the current wall flashing and tile. Direct it to the gutter some more
