Thanks for reply. Bummer. Definitely can't be balancing then? Could do that meself. Any idea what price(ballpark) for powerflushing? Cheers.

Thanks for reply. Butty in envelope, what's the address? Ground floor rads are piped under ground floor. Any idea why the system not draining fully from boiler? Cheers.

Hi, Wondering if anyone can help wi this? Drained system via combi boiler valve. Opened bleed valves upstairs(1 in attic conversion and 4 on 2nd floor) no water coming out. Left for a good wee while, closed and went downstairs. 4 rads on ground floor still had water coming out when...

Correct, must've been a good lad then? Canna beat a pair o baffies. first time I heard that saying a mate in work was talking about a bit of stuff saying "he'd be like a pup wi a baffy". Hilarious, I was in stitches.

Thanks for info. I've e-mailed them a couple times without any reply. To be honest I think I might steer clear of dulux from now on. Apart from paint cost it's more the time spent prepping everything that's annoying me. If they don't reply that will make me worse, I kinda get like "a dog...

Thanks for advice is the dulux trade satinwood a lot better than the normal stuff then? Also, I've read on some other posts I can just rub down the satinwood and apply a couple of coats acrylic on top. I take it you would recommend u/c first?

Thanks for reply, realise you need some airflow in loft, but I've had a conersion done and this is now son's room with storage at either side of it via doors and this is the reason I asked. Fairly drafty but door is well draft proofed. Cheers.

Hi, Looking for a bit of advice please. Roof repaired recently due to leak. I have a terraced house where part of my roof is attached to gable wall of next door property. Lead between the edge of my tiles and next door wall replaced and wall re-harled. My question is leak seems to have...

Thanks for info. No it's not bathroom and it was defo 750mm wide. Sounds like 800 wide would be preferred option and if I've got any probs I'll give plumber a call. Thanks again

Hi, Looking for some opinions please. Recently removed old 750mm wide rad while decorating room. Rad has been binned as really old but I'm having difficulty finding one this size. Can anyone tell me where I could get one 750mm wide or what size would be easier to install with existing...
