We have mushrooms under a tree which has red berry looking type of stuff. We also have a 4 year old, who collects worms, and other various creatures that exist in the garden. Even found a caterpillar on the weekend. We educate them that they can pick them, kick them, throw them etc..but...

Little Guy.. Boiler going on same wall, nearly all pipes come from above, with 2x 15mm going to the floor. Gas is currently 22mm. Existing Flue removed and bricked up with no plastering inside, us to provide the bricks. Said it would take 1x full day...

So far we've had quotes from some of the larger companies for a boiler replacement, to replace from a Floor Standing Boiler to a Combi. The boiler is a 1985 Ideal Mexico, RS30 vented system, with a gravity hot water system heated by the Boiler & an Immersion Heater. Big Guy - British Gas...

How would these fair against Drayton? http://www.screwfix.com/p/15mm-angled-trv-with-lockshield-white-chrome/31811

Thanks all, Location is Doncaster.

As the title really, looking to have 3 extra radiators installed. Already picked them up from ebay. Heating system is 15mm, and very easy runs. Decided against a DIY attempt. Its a vented heating system. Rad 1 - Bedroom. <2mtrs copper. Rad 2 - Hallway <1mtr Copper. Rad 3 - Lounge 6mtrs...

Awesome, thanks all.

eBay, boiler changes from about £1300 complete, inc 7yr warranty

Yes, its 22mm. We also have one bedroom which has 2 random pipes sticking out of the wall.This could be a rad, if we had a 2nd pipe. We initially thought it was an uninstalled rad location

House is a 1970's dormer bungalow, therefore its possible I guess. I plan to remove the skirting and have a peek behind. The cap feels to be push-fit, which rules gas out.

Our hallway has no radiator. Common sense would indicate that you need two pipes to have flow. The heating pipes are run in the floor, under the tiles. Any guesses what this is, or where the other pipe is?

Edited...x-many Questions.. With the timer disconnected...does the room stat operate the boiler? I would assume not. With the timer disconnected, operate the room stat..the boiler should not light. Push the timer back on, i suspect it will light....

Awesome, i expected some form of negative replies against the product. The plan was to have the whole piece inside the wall in one section, i am unsure if the pipe will achive a 180 degree bend from above to go into the radiator from below. I guess this is where copper takes over, and would...

It now appears that installing an extra radiator is possible with some LayFlat piping. I can drill a hole through the joist, and run the pipe to the radiator. We don't have a radiator in the hallway either, so an ideal opportunity to chase it into the wall... :) Any views on this piping...

We have an old skool Floor Standing Boiler. Dated back from probably 1985 or so. We wanted to add in an extra radiator, as the boiler currently has 6 single radiators running from the boiler. The heating is piped in 22mm, and the plan was to tap from this in 15mm (unsure on plastic piping...

Brilliant guys, exactly things that i am not thinking of. I simply had a beam swap in my mind, however your all perfectly right on this. The garage has not been maintained, and its probably easier to obtain quotes on to remove, repair woodwork and replace the roof with a new substance...

The roof is also leaking in that position, probably caused by the sagging beam which has happened sometime. I have no doubt that once winter sets, and the snow/ice forms this thing wont last long. I like the theory of removing the nails, then the beam but i guess access and swapping the...

Dont know it's asbestos until its tested however I would assume worst case. The trouble now is getting someone to come quote as its not exactly an area ib the yellow paged for this work. Its £1200 for new boards, but this does not include removal or a new beam and making good the brickwork.

Purchasing a house, offer accepted etc. Pop round tonight, the house is empty and not been viewed in the rain. The garage was open, door wide open so I had a peek inside. I found that the roof was leaking, and the roof beam appears to have split or something.. Can this easily be...
