    Verge pointing

    Hi all, is this verge pointing missing some cement between the tile clip and tile? There are gaps all along between the 2 tiles at the end.

    New Build joists

    They came back and took the skirting off, and packed under it which helped remove the cracking noises. But it has returned again. It is apparently where the stud wall meets the chipboard flooring. It is definitely 22mm chipboard on 600mm centre joists. Not sure how much noise is acceptable with...

    Poor pointing

    Is there anything that can be done to address poor pointing. This is a new build and other than these areas the brickwork looks ok and tidy, but what has gone on here i have no idea, or maybe i am just setting my expectations too high....

    Tidy Plumbing / good job?

    Heating pressure and minor green stain

    Hi, thanks for the reply. Since this post it seems to have settled down, has dropped to just under 1.1 bar but that is as low as it has been and normally only gets to that pressure when it’s been idle overnight. Still hearing some gurgling from a couple of radiators but when I try and bleed them...

    Heating pressure and minor green stain

    Hi all, new house with an unvented system. I have been bleeding radiators ocassionally since i moved in, just 2 that seem to accumulate air but seem to have most out the system now. I have obviously had to top up the pressure since. The heating pressure seems to drop very slightly, but only...

    New Build joists

    Thanks - i actually on reflection think it is just vibration causing the wardrobe doors to shake a little as i walk past them. As even just repidly pressing the carpet up and down near the base of the wardrobe has a similar affect

    New Build joists

    I thought they were spaced according to the size of the joist itself and the span? I think they have been spaced at 600mm

    New Build joists

    Hi All, Moved into a new house at the end of Jan. Had some cracking noises from where the stud timber walls upstairs were meeting the floor, which were mostly resolved by the builder by packing under them. However i am a little concerned re the deflection in the joists in the main bedroom...

    Ideal Icos HE12 - CH flush

    Hi All, apologies for the relatively long post here. I decided to put some inhibitor in my central heating system. I drained down a fair bit (maybe 25litres) and put some Fernox F1 in the feed and expansion tank. I cleaned the tank out beforehand as there was some brown layer in the bottom of...

    Airing cupboard gate valves

    Thanks Hugh and all. I believe it was the valve at the bottom of cylinder that was only half on, so have put that to half way. Everything seems to be working fine. I think in future ill leave well alone, despite reading that turning then twice a year is good preventative maintenance!

    Airing cupboard gate valves

    Hi all, So, will be brief! Moved into house (6 years old), decided upon some advice to turn gate valves off and on again then back 1/4 turn to keep free. Most turned ok, one was stiff but now fine. However my question is I can't remember if one was not fully open or not! I think at least one...
