    Side Fill Valve Won't Fit

    Cheers JohnD but I don't think that will fit either as it's a similar design to the others, issue I have is the syphon is blocking it due to the handle/fill valve pipe being on the same side, shoddy design! I will maybe have to look at putting the handle on the other side and rotate the syphon...

    Side Fill Valve Won't Fit

    Pic is a little misleading as you are right it will clear the arm no problem, issue is it won't fit between the space at the bottom of the cistern - fouls the bottom black bit of the syphon. The Fluidmaster that you linked is exactly the same as mine bar the brass bit! so that's out.

    Side Fill Valve Won't Fit

    Help :( I bought a Opella EcoFil side fill valve in order to swap out my noisy ballcock system but the siphon part is in the way because the handle is on the same side as the entry of the fill valve pipework :evil: Any ideas to get this to work?

    Boundary Fence - Fence erection ideas?

    Good question! not sure it's basically dividing the gardens like a fence would. Here's a pic of the Trellis on the wall

    Boundary Fence - Fence erection ideas?

    Forgot to say basically the Trellis is resting on top of a 3ft single brick wall which complicates things really I think.

    Boundary Fence - Fence erection ideas?

    Thanks for that Doggit, will try and get a pic tomorrow but safe to say the Trellis has seen better days! I was kind of fearing that reply, wanted to avoid back breaking work! Slabs would have to come up (concreted in) and a lot of hard work.

    Boundary Fence - Fence erection ideas?

    Does anyone know the easiest/best way to attach a little fencing to this bit where the dead bush is? Trellis is currently there but it's resting on a single brick wall and the neighbour is a little touchy shall we say :( We are looking to replace all the fencing - other neighbour is ok...

    Roof leak Quote

    Roofer came today, he replaced four tiles and re bedded one for £90 which is fair enough I thought. He proceeded to tell us it would be £150 to re bed the rest but talked us through the process If I was to do it myself. He then got me up on the Roof to show me! he told us the only way that...
