thats already a double joist spanning approx 5 m. Do you mean notch it and put in some extra support??

Putting in a new shower room upstairs, all was going well untill it was time to put in a waste pipe for the shower Arrrggghhhh! See the picture ... Blue lines are the stud walls The room is all built now these are old pics! Original plan was to put a hole (number 2) in the floor and run...

The horizontal run is sloped, don't know the exact ratio but it's more than enough. The waste pipe will have to travel for more than 3m to get to the soil pipe in the vertical run, it would barely make a connection to the horizontal run within 3m, will that be a problem?

This probably sound more complicated than it is lol. In the new upstairs bathroom, the soil stack runs horizontal through the eaves for about 2m before it turns 90degrees through the soffit and directly down to the drain. Can I add the boss connection for the shower along the horizontal...

Thanks for the replies, to be honest, my idea is simply a convenience one, the location of the 'TV switch' next to the light switch in the bedroom makes it more convenient for switching off, I like the idea of a remote system also but just worry about the 'lost remote' problem. Having a...

Thanks, its not the key that's broken but the small plastic control scre. Just to the left of the key

Hi all, I have managed to snap the head off the plastic control screw on the filling loop of my Worcester Greenstar 37 CDI. Does anyone know where i can buy the screw on its own or will i have to replace the whole filling loop? If i have to replace the filling loop, can anyone give me a...

No .... deffo not ... i double checked that before fitting

OMG I am about to rip out my soddin sink and throw a fit!!!! I have been through two different mixer taps on this sink in the past year ... i just can't seem to install them properly, they always leak at the tap/flexitail connection. I have tried connecting very tight ... tried using PTFE...

Oh Oh :shock: Me thinks i've been a bad boy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking at it again i think yes (as i said i will double check) Sounds like a plan although i had intended to use 6mm I sould have also added that the Tumble Dryer will be a temporary fixture until the new kitchen extension next year when CU will be moved and upgraded.

There is no mixed wiring. Yes! :D

The CU hasn't been signed off yet ... the installation is part of an ongoing building warrant due to run out in March next year. It was proffesionally installed by a select approved sparky as a homer but as the circuits are not finished yet i.e there are no upstairs lights or sockets yet it...
