Search and you'll find...this question has been answered many times before...

This is what you need. You'll get problems with the original tiles though since they won't have a tanking behind them the grout will leak!

If you keep it well olied it's not a problem really, they oil works a seal and keeps dirt out of te wood. :)

I did exactly this last year. What you need is one of these. Screwfix only do the 45 degree version, but if you go to a decent building supplier you should be able to find the straight version as well.

Pretty much, but if it's for the shower you have to tank the wall otherwise the grout WILL leak! An the wall will get damp again... :(

From your description it sounds like the ground level is above the DPC. Alas, you got bridging... What you are suggesting seems very reasoanble. If you can I'd lover the ground level around the outside wall 10-20 cm, leaving a small canal say 20 cm wide along the wall. Then leaving for a few...

Metal rawplug? Never seen those...what do they look like? I guess you got brick wall so you should be using red or brown plastic plugs. Depends how think the plaster is, red plugs should be enough, brown will surely be...

Well, there ya' go! :D I actually work in Essex (just on the boarder). Very close to junction 9 of the M11. I'll have a look at in what state the X-Tex is, should be fine but it was a while since I used it. Seriously, I won't need any more of it. Can you post your email address or...

Yes, I bought it from the same place as you've got in the link. I only bought 2.5l because I wanted to try it and see if it was any good. Mine is container is still half full. You want it chris_c to have a try? £10, ok? ;) I'm in Cambridgeshire.

Yes, I've tried it and it works. Gets a bit messy though, lots of wet sticky stuff! :wink: If you got a plasterboard ceiling it might not be the optimal solution though, tends to wet the paper as well... :(

I've just done a very similar job fitting a single built in oven rated at 2.8kW. In the manual for the oven it stated to use butyl heat resistant 2.5mm2 cable. I'd suggest you have a look in the manual for your oven to see if the manufacturer specify a cable size/type. If they don't you...

You need to fit a tanking system if you got a shower above the bath... Weird...I'm having a de ja vue moment here...tutut....

Gives you a bit more of a challenge... :roll: :P It's not hard to find out though. You can always call the manufacturer...

Is it a single oven? If it is most of them have a power rating just under 3kW so you can run them on a 13A socket. Check the rating of the oven. If it's less then 3kW it probably comes with a plug, or you can fit one.

Why not stick it in the ceiling and go through the roof with the pipe? I did that in my bathroom (also a flat roof extension). Worked a treat! :) You'll have to stay off the curries though... ;) :roll:

LOL :) Na, masona is right. The PVC sheets aren't too bad. Personally I just prefer tiles. :wink: Good luck Nige F! :D
