Would we be able to replace it ourselves?

That place gives me the creeps! Can I just tie up the float-valve and hang it up? There is the red stopcock at the 'immersion heater' if that would save me going up there? :P

The pipe has been bent for years, the bed is near it! :O I have some nice spanners with a protective piece of leather on them. The boiler is a baxi Solo. I'd drain the rads but I don't trust these rads as everything else in this has house been built wrong! I've done my level two in plumbing but...

They used horrible grips! Bent it in seconds, made mints meat out of it. Thankyou, will order one now. I don't want to make a new thread so remind me, how do I turn off the water to the radiator? And what tool should I use for the job?

Hi there! Had some decorators in lately and they accidentally broke my Radiator valve. I don't mind really as I needed to replace it anyway.. The only problem is I don't know where to get this type from.. As the copper pipe seems tiny?

Hi - You have probably seen my previous threads but I need some help. Let me explain quickly the problem which made me go up and investigate the attic. The entire upstairs of the house has suffered from SERVER mold. It keeps coming back so we thought it must be dampness inside the attic...

Freddy, The link to the '3rd party' site was Google Images. However you needed to be signed into a gmail account. However I have updated the image.

Dear Andy, The floor as insulation already but the walls are the problem. They have holes the size of fifty pence coins and I am assuming they shouldn't be there? Did you see the pictures OK? And would you like more?

Hi there! We are trying to repair a few medium sized holes in the attic roofing. They are about 3-4 inches and we are having extreme amounts of mold below (In the bedroom) the attic has never been looked at and is starting to fall apart. Picture of the holes below (Not very clear but in a black...

Feels like if I do it will break? :O
