You can get rad snaps from any DIY store although obviously they wont cover a long piece of pipe. Are these what you mean?

I dont think anybody is doubting that you could do it, just that you need to have the work certified afterwards if doing it yourself (which will be hard to find a sparky willing to do that) or get a sparky to do the install. The cable size depends on a few things, the length of the run, how it...

I have an en-suite without a toliet but looking back to when i built the room i wish i had fitted it in somewhere. You can get small corner toilets for smaller rooms.

Cheers Jon - i'll give that a go!

Hi chaps, I've been asked to look at a friends light that wasnt working. When i got there i realised it was a strip light with a fluoresent bulb - i know nothing abou tthose at all. The light is lighting up very dull but not quite "firing" (so to speak) if that makes sense. Any ideas what...

No i didnt - perhaps i should've done to be honest but i just spent the extra time later on making sure everything was sealed properly with a good quality sealent.

I've just done this for the same reasons as you stated. I built a platform for my tray to stand on. It was basically lengths of 2x4 timber sandwiched between 2 sheets of thick plywood. My shower tray was a quadrant tray (rounded corner) so i shaped the plywood sheets to match the contour of...

The idea was to fit the catch on abatton on the inside and the roller half on the back of the panel.....

At a guess i'd say the panel is between 12-15mm thick. I would've thought thats thick enough if i used short self tapping screws....maybe!

Its an MDF panel Tom

I didnt look at the picture properly, i thought the roller half would've fixed on the inside of the panel. Mirror screws are a possibility, i dont suppose i'd need many.

Thanks chaps, Those roller catches look the business!!! Thanks for the help!

No, i hadnt but i suppose it'd work just as well as magnets, and probably easier to get hold of too! Cheers for that suggestion

Hi chaps, i am in the final stages of fitting my bathrrom suite. I want to have the bath panel as easy to remove as possible. The instructions say to screw into place but i dont want the screw heads on show at all - the panel was really expensive. Has anybody got any good suggestions of...

Thats the one pal!! Is there an easy way to dispell water from the pipe i'm soldering onto. I cut water to this pipe at the weekend and it seemed to drip all day long - would this affect the soldering quality?

Hi Chaps, Just refitting my bathroom. The water pipe supplying the toilet cistern currently comes out of the wooden floor. As i have stripped the walls back to studs i would like to hide my pipework within the walls. It'd be easier for me to take the toilet cistern supply the cold water...

Thank god for that!!! I had visions of me having to redo the whole fence but offsetting the posts. Cheers pal!

Chaps, Sorry to bring this back up again. i found yesterday that whoever replaced the posts before had dug a really wide hole and filled with concrete. I have had to dig around the concrete to get it out leaving me with an even wider hole - approx 2ft diameter at the top. I would like to put...

To get the tile adhesive off i normally spray the adhesive with water keeping it wet for 5 - 10 mins or so, then scrape of with a wall scraper or something similar.
