Doesn't work either he says...

Thanks but he's tried really hard to pull the trim off, to no avail. Any other ideas?

Hi, My brother-in-law called to ask for help on how to remove this (see below) but I have no experience with these and I can't tell from the picture. Is the trim attached to the device itself or to the surrounding wall? How do we remove the whole thing to replace it with a new one? Thanks.

Indeed the holes at the bottom are not visible, I wasn't very clear. I spoke with my neighbour and he's cool with us lifting the last panel to try and insert a couple of M10 bolts. If there's isn't enough of a gap, I'll go for rawl bolts. What diameter (M12 ok for 15mm holes?) and is there a...

Thanks, but my fence will run into this post at approximately 75 degrees, so not sure that would work. Any idea on how to fix a batten?

Hi, Below is a pic of my neighbour's fence, with the holes in his concrete post clearly visible. There are two, one at the bottom and one at the top of each fence post. At the bottom of this fence, where I'm replacing the fence at the back of our garden, I'd like to use these holes to fix a...

Thanks. Well it looks like I'm now beyond applying a bead of silicone :shock: I consider myself to be a fairly competent DIYer once I know what to do. In this case I could definitely do with some advice with rebuilding the bottom bit. Some of that cardboard sandwich stuff that you can...

Thanks. What looks like bucketloads of silicone at the bottom is just masking tape I put on the silicone bead to protect it while I was chiseling off the grout in the corner. The problem with applying silicone along the vertical gap is that there isn't much for it to hold on to, no? Is there...

Hi, The corner in our shower enclosure hasn't been tiled very well. I think that whoever did tried to cut corners (!) by fitting 3 whole widths and accepting there would be a gap, instead of fitting 2 whole widths and 2 halves if you see what I mean. He filled the resulting gap with something...

Thanks guys. I'd like an elbow version if I can find it.

Hi, As the title says, what do I use to connect a 1/2" flex hose to this female thread (about 20 mm internal) on the toilet cistern? Thanks.

Thanks for that. I think something like this will work. Question 1: do you ever run a bit of silicone around to make sure the above seals properly? Question 2: what pipe fittings do you use to connect a 15mm copper pipe to the above cistern intake (with an inner thread and an...
