We are about to get fitted wardrobes in our bedroom, but when moving a chest of drawers away from the wall I found the wall very damp at skirting level.(first floor) Now i'm assuming its condensation due to lack of air flow behind the unit. esp as its a cold North facing external wall Now...

yeah but think of all the fuel revenue that the government get from the charvs driving their nova's around macdonalds drive thru's all night :twisted:

reckon you could have a case against the government for breach of human rights?... i have a right to work where i want (within reason) and not be priced out of it. I would use the bus.. if there was one. I would use the train if it ran at times other than 2 hours before or after i start and...

excellent! Thanks. I've posted elsewhere on here for help with the wiring and using an fcu.. but i guess it would be fine to run one of these direct off a plug socket, maybe even with a timer (or would it really not be worth the cost saving if i only ran it say for12hours a day... ie what...

Ok, someone correct me if i'm wrong but i need to fit a small heater (60w) (yes sixty) :shock: inside a built in cupboard to air air circulation. This is the way i assume you would do it: Disconnect the supply. Remove one cable from a nearby double socket. Reconnect this cable to a 20A...

I'm trying to source some low power tubular type heaters for installing in the back of some damp alcoves. I've seen them around but cant find them now. Low wattage. (like 18w or something) that can be left on permanently to get air circulating in the built in cupboard and stop it getting damp...

Anyone know if he was ever found. Googled it but latest report was dec 23rd. I guess if he was never found (and would have been reported) then poor bugger is dead :cry: :cry: why would someone steal a penguin to order... muppets.

if you have condensation in your loft then you do not have adequate ventilation. In an ideal situation your loft will be as cold as outside. You may need to install soffit vents or something similar.

is it safe to install a bathroom shaver socket (with the integral transformer) on the same circuit as the bathroom lights as long as its in the correct zone? do i need to install a fcu before the socket?

10mm square cable should do it.

any one else noticed that veg oil seems to be always out of stock in tesco's morrison and sainsburys at the mo. andy must be getting through hell of a lot. I use veg oil occasionally, but havent been able to for a while as i cant get any.

[/url] excellent.. exactly what i was looking for.. couldnt find the spares number anywhere! thanks... :D :D :D

there is no such thing as 'handing on' a job. If the original builder took the work on (and even more so if he turned up on site), then your contract is with him.. if he then decides he's too busy then it is up to him to subcontract. The fact that you paid the subby the cash is irrelevant, you...

you contract was with the original builder. therefore your complaint lies with him. It is up to him to then chase it up with this subcontractor. Your best bet is try to get him to come back and do the work properly.unfortunately you have removed the evidence of substandard work.. did you take...

i know its contary to regs, but if you had a metal fitting and it wasnt earthed, yet was on , say the kitchen lighting circuit... dont ask why the kitchen has a seperate circuit.. could you not install a RCD or RCBO trip instead of a normal MCB and earth?... only asking cos in my house the...

meant to say the offending item is a JCB planer... just had a lookin Q and B and the belts on their pro range seem identical.. will try tonight.
