Hello, Does anyone know roughly how much it might cost to convert a 3 bedroom semi [largeish with separate dining and utility], from night storage to Gas CH? I've no idea how many radiators would be needed. Thanks for any advice here.

if you don't want to get a cat yourself, which is good advice above, then I have had good results by sprinkling the area with Lion Dung, which I used to buy at local garden centre. It's pelleted form in a box, very clean to use and you won't notice it. Initially they might try to compete for a...

I have a Franke Fraganite sink - white with matching taps. I like it but agree it does stain but I use some bio washing powder and let sink soak for 10 or 20 minutes, which is what they recommend and it comes up like new, I also use a little powder around the draining area too. I do like the...

I used 'Autumn Brown' once and that too was orangey and quite horrible, so I went over it with 'Country Oak' and that's nice and dark, I think you would like that one.

I cannot answer your question but I notice this topic has been raised on here before and a poster called Andrew on the topic below was especially helpful, among others. You might want to have a look, particularly on page 2:- http://www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=142784

..if it was mine, I would just thin it out. Wait till it's finished flowering next Spring [don't do it now or you'll lose next years flowers], feed it, and then thin it removing dead or diseased wood, perhaps criss crossing branches, and just shape it so it looks nice and airy, it does look a...

hi gairloch, I use Vitax as it's a slow release fertilizer, one feeding in Spring is all you need do. Vitax Conifer and Shrub Fertilizer. It says for Azaleas and Rhododendrons, but it's good for all trees and shrubs and it won't hurt your little roses in front there too :) Your local...

ok..lol..well we're getting somewhere. Sorry I can't help with what the problem is exactly. Perhaps a balanced fertilizer feeding in early Spring might help. Have you ever fed it?

Plants like clematis, honeysuckle and jasmine are twining plants, so on a fence, people usually put some horizontal and vertical wires on them to offer support and encourage such twining. Clematis in particular need this kind of support to see them at their best especially in the early years...

Hello, the leaf looks like a flowering cherry and I'm guessing it might be Cheal's Weeping Cherry, aka Prunus Kiku-Shidare-Zikura. They are prone to silver leaf disease which I don't think is curable but I wouldn't like to be sure this is the reason for your leaf drop. In the Spring when...

Just to give a different opinion. I have a gorgeous solid oak worktop which was fitted 2 years ago and coated in Liberon finishing oil. It still looks as good now as it was then, I've never re-coated it since or felt the need to, it's still a glowing colour. Admittedly it's a smallish kitchen...

I've not seen this programme either but I'm not against people of either sex enhancing their physical appearance with modern techniques, however they so choose. I have better things to spend money on, but each to their own. Just to answer the original question, I'm sure you'll find plenty of...

thanks for your help :)

Hello, If a house has full gas fired central heating with Ideal Mexico 2 boiler, plus an airing cupboard housing foam lagged copper cylinder with immersion heater with computerised control switching, can anyone advise me what is the point of having this immersion heater when GasGH is installed...
