    Driveway sub base. Is this suitable.

    I have block paving in the front. Grey pavers, though not sunk but faded and looks old after year only. As the driveway is at the back i was thinking maybe 2 strips either side of 60cm each and then some white round pebbles with black paving in the middle. Price wise I have a similar budget

    Vaillant 828e strange problem.

    Thanks. So the leak is from the black cap. Does this come as a whole unit or I can just buy the cap. I can see the drum is attached to the pump. The pressure rises when heating is switched off.
