Does that mean a blockage?

My family say I'm fussing over nothing but it's bugging the hell out of me. Is it harmless or could it indicate a bigger problem somewhere?

Just checked the water - all flowing freely. The higher pipe on the right is the washing machine, the lower one the sink. The angle of the photo is crap but the whole length of pipe has a downward slope. We've been here for a few years and the only time I've had this glugging before was when the...

Rubbish photos I'm afraid. It's gone dark outside :(

Will try now.

It goes into a drain. Not submerged in water (although that did happen a few months ago when the drain blocked with food and that caused glugging). Drain is all clear now. It's baffling especially as it's only started this week.

Our sink has started making a glugging noise when you put water down it. I've checked all pipes including the overflow and they're clear. I've used Mr Muscle drain unblocker and a foamer down there and still it bloody glugs! The only place I haven't checked is the pipes outside the house but I...

Who has fitted lap vents to their felt? I'm still battling condensation in the loft and these vents keep popping up on different threads. Do they work? How many do you need? I read the link below which has real scare stories attached to these vents - are they a risk or is the site...

I'm going to fit some lap vents to hopefully help the condensation. Will i still need to cut the felt as well?

So I should be able to feel the vent through the felt? I'm scared of cutting in the wrong place and wrecking the felt o_O

Ah, no wonder we've got condensation in the loft then. Will I have to get someone in to sort it out?

If roof vent tiles are fitted do they have to have a hole cut in the felt underneath for the air to pull through the attic? The reason I ask is we have two on each side of our roof and on one side there are holes cut in the felt for the vents, but not on the other.

There are vents in the roof. It's got a really good draught when you're in there but we haven't had hardly any wind lately. I've never noticed this until this year. It's never happened before to my knowledge which made me wonder if I'm letting the moist air up there when I open the hatch and...

Bumping this as I've been up there again to find something and it's still wet. Is it a. because we've had non-stop rain for weeks on end or b. because I keep going up there and letting the moist air in? or a combination of the two? I don't understand how it was dry a couple weeks ago and now...

True, I might as well make use of it.

Ooh, so I don't need a seperate rcd?

Thanks!

Yes. I could cut it back but then it won't reach into the shed. Looks like I'll have to replace it.
