I am building a new base for a conservatory, i am wondering is it better for sound insulation to lay my Jablite over the concrete slab and the chipboard on top, with a laminate on top of that? Or is it better to have the Jablite below my concrete slab and simply floor on top of that. Opinions...

I am going to build my conservatory and i am planning on having underfloor heating. The electrical type seems the most straight forward, so just asking if it seems right that my 50mm Jablite insulation should sit on top of my concrete slab , with the UFH laid on top,in order for better heat...

I have a bedroom above my garage. It has a radiator and still feels colder than the other 3 bedrooms. I presume this is because of the cold garage below. What do you reckon to me insulating the garage ceiling below with Kingspan or even loft insulation between timber battens , with...

Problem solved! Needed a fuse in the switch above the worktop. I feel a bit silly now!!

I have switched the power on and stripped the cables when i wired it in. There is a fused switch above the worktop which is also on, can this be a problem?? Is it supposed to have a fuse in it?

I have just tried to wire in my dishwasher. I had a blank connection but I did not want to cut off the appliances plug and wire it in so I connected a one switch 13amp socket. Now I can't get the dishwasher, or anything for that matter, to work from that new socket. What have I overlooked?
