We are looking to replace our traditional stairs with a modern look stairs, ideally open plan. Could anyone please guide us in the direction where we can source treads/banisters etc at a reasonable cost? cheers

thanks CWatters, yep I am tilting towards this as the reviews i have seen thus far do suggest that its a quality product. There are/were some issues with installation, suppose its not for novice DIYers but once installed correctly does the job well. Hope you get the answer re your external bell...

Leaving humour aside, the message I am getting that its best to lower the ceiling, giving ceiling a consistent look?

Spot on Tony, yep we are faced with aesthetic issue and i guess we could not be the first or last to go through this, hence the reason for the post to hear from others what they choose and why? cheers

Part of newly build extension, faced with this dilemma: We are removing external loadbearing wall and naturally putting a beam across. For new ceiling we have two options, either we box the beam and keep the ceiling height same or lower the ceiling level and have straight ceiling across the...

Guys, I have read good reviews on the Visonic Powrmax Pro and seems to be good kit to install, there was a concern for DIY installation/manuals etc but that won’t be an issue for us as we are getting the alarm system installed as part of our renovation project. I just need to know if anyone...

Oh thats a bummer! I guess we would have our installation commenced by then so i guess i just have to wait/hope that other experts on this forum can comment on this. Th reason i was keen for the answer was that we would like to install the Vaillant kit as well (boiler and their hot water tank)...

Hi Milleniumaire Did you talk to him? Would apprecaite a quick update! Cheers

Right plumber did what he needed to do and found that when the water company install the meter they kindly ran approx (10CM) 25mm (blue) pipe before making a joint with the old led pipe. Now for the replacement pipe do we stick to 25mm all the way or is there any benefit in going to 32mmor...

Tony, does the above implies that its ok to split the 'open' area in multiple zones but use the single thermostat?

I would be keen to know the out come of this chat as our builder/plumber has recommended unvented system with Vaillant boiler/hot water tank and the weather compensation thermostat. cheers

Hi Tony We shall be going through this pain soon, perhaps you would like to point out that is there anything we can do to protect our interest to ensure that appropriate variable control is added to the UFH? cheers

Thanks for this, i was hoping to read this, good news that your builder gave your the right choice.

Milleniumaire Thanks for the link/info, seems like a decent kit, we just have to wait little while for our kit. Faced with tricky situation, while the new build is concrete based, the existing floor area is timber suspended floor, unsure how he is going to keep the floor levels same? On...

Thanks for the update, interesting that your builder/plumber will only want to have one zone, we have suggested the space to be divided in to 3 zones with each zone has its own thermo/timer etc. We are then hoping to have some sort of smart solution to control these zones using the...

I am sorry I am unable to make contribution to this thread but will follow this thread with great interest as i shall be going through the same set-up. Milleniumaire, your specified area for the UFH is slightly less than what we will have, how many zones you/your installer has created? What...

Hummm, as it’s a rear extension so can't be seen from the roadside, as for my neighbours, we get on really well(both side) so unlikely either will complain. BTW in the highly unlikely event of us choosing to go for the brick option would BC has any issue/saying over this or this would have any...
