I have my cooker hood sitting in a run of wall units, as shown: Hood by rarara posted 28 Aug 2018 at 11:31 AM Am looking to cover the underside of the units to protect against splashes, steam (kettle sits under one side and we drink a lot of tea :D) and also bridge the gap to the tiles. Any...

Newly fitted kitchen window with wooden sill, but then had to be trimmed once the worktop was fitted: Window by rarara posted 28 Aug 2018 at 11:31 AM What I need to do is add a cover to the existing wooden sill, which will bridge the gap to the worktop. Needs to be approx 1.8m long, and the...

Managed to drop a knife on my Corian worktop - pointy side on impact and its taken a wee chip out of the surface, few mm deep and about 5mm or so across. Any idea if I get the correct colour of adhesive if it is suitable for filling a hole? Only real advise I can see online is for cracks, and...

So I am needing to relocate a wall socket a few feet and the existing cabling (from floor upwards) has just been plastered into the wall by the looks of things. I'd rather bury it in conduit when I move it. As is typical, a few months ago I threw out about 9.5m of 20mm flexi conduit :rolleyes...

Thanks everyone - some good advise :D One last question - anyone got an opinion on Reina? (http://www.reinadesign.co.uk/). They seem to offer some really nice looking ones in RAL colours. Thanks

any brands you think are a better bet?

Looking to find a large vertical column rad, the type normally described as 'designer' :rolleyes: There are an abundance of unbranded ones on the likes of Amazon or Ebay which look ideal and are cheap (£150) and state 15 year guarantee. Are these worth buying? Or will the quality prove to be...

I am trying to determine the bolt size on something I am modifying as I need to buy additional nuts but other than it being I think M6 and 1.5mm pitch I am struggling. The only thing I know for sure when looking through my box of spares for a match is that it is the same as the lengths of...

Need to cover an existing woden sill in our kitchen and bridge a small gap to the new worktop. All I can see online are upvc sills but am not sure these are very scratch resistant and this will be seeing a lot of traffic, so are there alternatives? Needs to be white, ideally pre finished so not...

if I can't get a slimmer hood that might be the only option. Howdens deeper wall units are annoyingly 390mm which would stick out further than I would want - any idea if Howdens hinge position means I could use them on another brands carcass?

it's an Elica Eliplane so is supposed to be flush fitted to the bottom of the wall unit, which needs to be 320mm deep :cry: and not the 270mm of my wall units

OK, so our kitchen has been installed and I now have an issue. Hob is under a line of wall units - they are Howdens and only 270mm deep but I realise now that the Elica hood I ordered is 290mm deep :eek:. Had a search online and can't seem to see any that will fit in my shallow wall unit. Can...

Last questions! For a tumble dryer and a cooker hood is a Cowl Vent and a Flap Vent both suitable? I want it to be as protected from the wind as possible, so would imagine that a cowl vent is best as it is more shielded (and can have a backdraught flap as part of it). Its unclear though if they...

Sounds like a good idea, and also a good bit cheaper. One question though - do they all need to be face glued? It seems like an additional faff - is there nothing with a gasket etc? Thanks

Actually, I can see there is a Greenwood FastFix duct which is 100mm - this would be OK for the tumble dryer, but the hood needs 120mm. Any idea of one that is this size?

Had a search but can't find what I am looking for :eek:. I need to vent both a cooker hood and tumble dryer through a wall but the outside is high/unreachable. I need 4" flues that can be pushed and sealed through from the inside. Can anyone point me towards the item I need and stockists? Thanks

look interesting (y) what size are they and where can they fit??
