I've replaced both seals on the shower screen but it still does it as there's a tiny gap where the water finds a path. Is there anything that can be done or should I just get...

    Quick setting grab adhesive advice needed please

    Hi All, I want to stick a single gang plastic surface mount box on to a painted interior wall. What grab adhesive would people recommend? The box will only house a single data outlet. I don't want to risk drilling into the plasterboard wall in case of mains cables in close situ. Cheers Daz

    What size tubular heater to keep black mould at bay?

    I should have added that the wardrobe affected is only around 600mm x 600mm x 2.1m tall. The Dimplex model does have a stat on it but is cranked up all the way currently.

    Help needed with toilet cistern plumbing please

    I think, from doing a little research, that I'd need to fit a Cat Risk 5 backflow valve which isn't going to happen. I should also contact Amazon and all the other UK sellers of them in case they aren't aware. That includes B&Q who sell them too and make no mention of it on their website.
