Thanks everyone for your replies. There seems to be a bit of a divergence of opinion on this one but it sounds like the RCBO and blanks are the better option i.e. his first quote but that the price is a tad high. Might be better off just getting another couple of quotes on this but you think...

Worked out how to upload a photo of the space and wire.

Essentially it boils down to is £65 too much for installing a plug socket?

Hello I posted another thread about getting a plug socket installed where we would like to put a dishwasher. There are two wires where we want the socket which i think has a set of live, neutral and earth wires in each but i cannot be sure without looking closer and i am scared to do so...

I am really sorry I cannot answer this question better but we had the exact same thing in a flat we were in a couple of years ago. As we were tenants the landlord got a plumber in who tried changing the batteries and playing around with the newly installed boiler, he even got the Worcester guy...

Yes you're correct but I might use reclaimed floorboards for the deeper bottom shelf (set of 3).

Very nice indeed.

That's exactly what we're looking for, are they yours or is this from the internet?

Just wanted to say thanks so much to all of you for your patient and wise advice. I came here with specific questions but will stay for the community and great advice :)

Excellent advice, thanks very much.

Really? It can't be that strong can it? Not sure what you mean by chase the shelves into the plaster but i will look it up. Thanks

Yeah for books and yes not all paperbacks and yes it is mighty heavy and this is my concern with anything without batons or brackets!

Cool thanks for the head's up. I'll look up what that is :)

I might have used the wrong terminology but i mean the recessed part next to a chimney breast. I thought it was called an alcove but i am a newb. We do want them to run the full width but do not want visible brackets if possible.

Thanks to you both. Wise advice Omega and may well be what we do. I will post a photo when i get home.

Hello Just moved into a house and want to put a dishwasher in. The previous owners didn't have one but those previous to them did. I have removed the cabinet where the the pre-previous tenants had theirs and have got the space ready. I can cope with the water hookup and waste pipe but there...
