    Loose shower head - how to tighten

    I have an electric Redring shower. The pray head has come loose and it won't tighten meaning that the shower head on the riser bar wont stay in position. The head has a screw that is meant to tighten the swivel head but it just keeps loosening off. I have attached pictures of the head and the...

    Sliding Doors (wardrobe)

    I have sliding wardrobe doors in a bedroom that my wife wants changed. We've had them a few years. They're still OK but she's fed up with them. I'm wondering if I can just buy new doors of the appropriate size and use the same rails? I've attached pictures of the rail and hangers.

    Typical Cost to Paint House

    I take your point about the type of surface. It's a typical end terrace with roughcast walls. No cracks, no obstructions. Gable end with no windows or doors.

    Wrought Iron Fence Cost

    I am going to have a bit of simple wrought iron fencing done on my small end terrace frontage. L-shaped, it would be 7.3m x 1.9m with a gate in it and standard height, I don't know, about 1m? How much is this likely to cost me?

    Most economical programming

    I have a three bedroom house heated by a combi boiler. My wife and I are retired and at home most of the time. I have the heating timed (Hive controller) to come on at 07.30 until 23.45. In cold weather (today for example) I am finding that in the mornings it takes three or four hours to reach...

    How should hot water perform with a combi boiler?

    We just changed to a combi boiler a couple of months ago. I am finding that we have to run the hot water for up to thirty seconds before it gets hot. Sometimes it runs hot then cold then hot again. It's a brand new boiler. Is this typical of combi boilers (I have never used one before)?

    Replacing a Conventional Boiler with Combi.

    I did get another quote. Both of them were from people that I know personally and that I am sure I can trust.

    Replacing a Conventional Boiler with Combi.

    It's just my wife and I in the house and we have an electric shower so I don't think that flow should be a problem? Regarding radiator leaks, my next door neighbour has the same installation and since he changed two or three years ago he had no problems. Hopefully this should be OK.
