Thanks, I should have started with the fix but I had seen other people had asked on other posts and other forums and I tried all the solutions. I even went through various solutions with Mira customer support, so I had given up. It was actually my mum's shower due to her disability, it was only...

Thank you again, if you had not posted I would not have tried again. It works!!! I shut down the water and electricity, then loosened a plastic black bolt which looked like a filter on the unit that is connected to the water supply. Water dripped out. Turned it all back on and hey presto it was...

Thank you. I'm going to try this now as you suggest. That was my plan but it was £180.00 fix fee from Mira and if it was beyond repair it would be £80.00 then over £400 to replace. The shower switches on but no water and just beeps with all the lights flashing. I have tried all the suggested...

Thanks, I did that yesterday and there is only a small hole where the cable and the water pipe come through, the rest is all good. It was only recently done and I asked the electrician to do the wiring to handle a 10kw shower. So I hope that is the case, but will get a professional to install...

Hi, We have a Mira advanced shower which we no longer want as it has stopped working, plus it isn't very powerful, but with the water pipe coming up from the bottom on the right, I am unclear what replacement options we have. Also as you can see we dont have a huge amount of room on the...

Thank you. I have planks the builders left here, so I can use them. I appreciate the advice, most helpful.

Hi, We have a small narrow hallway with recessed lights. I am a complete novice regarding wallpapering and wondered what the best approach was to deal with the recessed lighting as we want to use lining paper over the ceiling. Would you go straight down the length in one long strip or across...

Thank you. Much appreciated, I will give that a try.

Hi, I have an oak table from Next, a few years old now and the top has been ruined. It's the same one as in this photo, although they have looked after theirs much better than I have. I want to sand the top down but unsure how to finish it to match the legs. I appreciate it's just a photo, I...

Thanks, I think I will talk to them about it in a nice way. That it seems a little expensive and to break it down for me. It's annoying as they are really good, but it should be fair. It feels somewhat plucked from the air.

I think you are right, once through through door everything seemed like a hike in price, apart from what we planned originally. I am new to all of this so big lessons on my part in terms of setting an exact scope of work from the start and associated costs. I never had that. So lots of extra...

I hope that isn;t the case as they seem so honest and built my double extension. But I was starting to get a little questioning if I'm honest as some of the quotes seemed a little out there. I'm a little worried now that I have been paying inflated prices for everything. I don't know if I even...

Thanks. One was 3.5 including vat 6.5k excluding VAT And 5k including VAT The 6.5k is the 4 weeks of work. The others in days. It's over paving stones, which are not great in places, and 300mm in height, so nothing out of the ordinary.

I have had other quotes now from firms considered top end which are cheaper by nearly 2k. The original most expensive quote said it would take 3 - 4 weeks to build. I'm wondering what the big difference is, as in what they intend to do others would do in days. Is there anything specific I...

We have just had am extension built which is a knock through into the original house. The new part is screed and the old floorboards. The builders suggest Amtico click with a fibreboard underlay, adding skirting over the top. Floor company insists it needs plywood all over and stick down...

Thanks, that's helpful to know.

Ok thanks, yes they have done work for me before and I suddenly was concerned they were taking advantage as another quote was half of this. I was beginning to question all the other work completed, so it's good know this isn't excessive. Although I would prefer it was cheaper, if they don't...

Hi, We just had an extension built and want decking coming off it. Currently outside the new patio doors is some rather uneven paving slabs from the old patio. The size is 10m length by 2.8 width, with a height of 30cm. There will also be a step down from the patio. I have been quoted...

:LOL: hilarious but no I couldn't, there is a slight gap where I can see them but today my extra tall bamboo arrives to obscure that. My plan was to put the bamboo up so we can't see them and they can't see me. I can see their entire garden from my bedroom window , but that's it. Luckily...

Actually it's better in some senses as its actually not as far along as what the council did. But the council alao raises the path considerably at the side. The side raised path, which is actually almost bout 60xm or more looks directly into the neighbours bathroom. I can't use that access...
