The plan was to have these covered with sand and cement, however we might be able to have the felt folded over along the outside of the wall, and the fascia put onto the top of it?

I hope this works,

Garage roof... concrete asbestos. I have received a quote to remove asbestos roof, brace roof, new boards etc, then lay felt & fascia. The quote was £1820 (an independent firm, however lots of trade recognitions on the van) Its just under 24 sq mtrs.. Is this price fair? Can you...

Hi, A single brick garage, the roof is supported by external floor joists (roughly 3.2mtrs in width). The ends are exposed due to the garage being single brick. One of the beams needed to be replaced, as the roof was leaking. It probably did not help that water could penetrate through...

You two remind me of this.. Anyhow, its Minature... Google says so.. :wink: http://www.electrical4u.com/miniature-circuit-breaker-or-mcb/

If the price is over £100, go with a British Gas boiler repair. They should be able to replace the pump (not body) in under 30mins, and therefore only £89.. :)

Wickes... £2.99 http://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Ball-Valve-Diaphragm-Washer-32mm-Pack-2/p/421629 The ideal with Screwfix, Wickes etc is that its fixed today... as you might break something next time it comes apart. ;)

I seem to remember paying £3.59 odd from Screwfix for the Inlet Valve, and just swapped the rubber washer over. Side http://www.screwfix.com/p/side-entry-toilet-cistern-ball-valve/88427 Bottom http://www.screwfix.com/p/bottom-entry-toilet-cistern-ball-valve/52836

Unfortunately i am at work... Is that the answer that i need? Balance it...

I am going to follow this thread. We have a open-vented system, which the boiler does heat only, with a in-direct loop in an immersion heater. Our boiler does kettle, which we suspected it was limescale in the system, which a de-scaler was added. Its an old ideal mexico, which has a...

Hi all, Advice has been 100% spot on so far, Thanks awarded. :) This is the bad boy that's fitted to the rad, I can feel the rubber seal inside the valve when I have unscrewed it fully. The tiny hole will explain why it takes 50yrs to drain down, and we know the solution. I could just...

£40 for a Boiler Service by a local RGI... Is booked up to about 6 weeks ahead. Just does CP12's, Boiler Services and small repairs. Works from 8am till 9pm, and was thinking about an Apprentice again.. I can see it being a good business model. Does the things that no one else wants...

Does the rubber washer push on? Is it easier to replace it? Its a 1/2" Old Skool Drain valve..

You are all Right... Just unscrewed the drain plug right out, the rubber washer is currently stuck in the hole, and not on the end of the drain plug. and I am not going to pull it out right now... :P

Ah...... I see... All rads get hot, so don't suspect a blockage... Thankyou..

2hrs and a bit later... still going.. Would a slow draining system indicate that the system needs a Power-Flush due to Sludge/Blockage? I could throw in some X400, and run during the winter period.. :)

How long should it take to drain down an open-vented heating system? 6 radiators. 3 upstairs, 3 downstairs. Drain valve on the lower rad, which piped via the concrete flooring.

What about cost? Different stats are different prices... why go for the cheaper? Are they poor in range, or just breakdown easily?

You could ask yourself.. Have i changed anything in the property to make this happen? Have i just moved into the property and just noticed it?

Most buildings with cracks, they mark them and monitor. You could chip the loose paint away, fill and paint. Then monitor it. You can buy paint which you can paint over a ceiling, and it will cover the cracks. Unsure on the quality, however i noticed it as we have similar cracks through...
