Sorry to hijack this thread , would it be much more expensive to replace a fuse box with a consumer unit ? . I've never had a problem with it but don't fancy messing around with fuse wire is a problem occurs

Hi I'm thinking of replacing my internal doors . I would need 8 doors replacing with like for like standard doors . Roughly what sort of price would I be looking at to replace them labour only ? Thanks

It was up a hill onto a friend's drive , it was quite a harsh dropped kerb so I revved more to get over it .

Hi on Saturday I was reversing onto a steep drive and having to rev a lot . After parking I could smell a burning clutch smell ! Have I damaged my car ?

A friend of mine has to top his combi up every 3 months or so . He called British gas ( he has cover ) the engineer said it all looks good and sometimes older boilers lose water , it's only 6 years old ! . Is the engineer talking BS ?

Anyone worked for boxt ? . Surely it's a rip-off for the customer and the gas engineer as a marketing company is doing well out of it !.

Just been balancing my radiators or at least trying to . I noticed one of my lock shield valves leaks when it's turned off but doesn't when it's fully open ! . Wouldn't you think It would also leak when it's open ?

Hi I've just had my gas guy in to fit a magnetic filter to my boiler . He used 22-15 internal reducers to make it fit . Everything looked ok but I've just noticed a tiny weep , it takes about 30 minutes before more water appears (maybe a drop). Will it just need nipping up with a couple of...

I know it's better fitting a filter on the return pipe but is it ok to fit it on the out pipe ?. My return pipe doesn't have any spare room thanks to the filling loop !

Yes the central heating EV . Here's my dilemma . When my boiler was last serviced the engineer topped up the EV with some kind of bike pump . Since the service it's been 1bar when off and 2 bar when running . 2 bar seemed a bit too high so I let some pressure out of the EV . Now it's 1 bar...

Hi just thinking that an expansion vessel pressure should be just over 1 bar . What happens if it's over or under ?
