    Removing switch/socket box extenders

    I've recently had my bathroom refitted and they installed 2 boxes outside the bathroom (in the landing): a thermostat and a fan isolator switch. The plates sit on thick plastic boxes which project very far from the wall and look horrible. Can I get rid of those boxes and hide the internals...

    Internal door furniture - advice needed please

    Thanks, I'll go for 60mm (30/30) euro cylinders. The escutcheons are around 7mm, so that will be roughly 5mm protrusion on each side. I guess I can live with that. I'm surprised it's hard to find internal door locks. I'd have thought it would be quite a common thing for bedrooms with lodgers.

    Underfloor heating for bathroom - advice needed please

    Cheers, so wet UFH is pointless... I'm still not sure about whether to go for electric or none at all. I don't suppose electric UFH would be costly to fit or run, and it would make it more comfortable as you could walk on it barefoot year round. But then, putting down a bathroom mat or two (one...

    Underfloor heating for bathroom - advice needed please

    I have central heating with a condensing combi boiler and I'm thinking of installing underfloor heating in the bathroom just to make it a bit more comfortable and cleaner. The bathroom has a suspended timber floor. The floor area to be covered would be very small, roughly a square metre. (The...
