The only reason I was going for the fire door is because the existing door is 44mm hence I thought getting a 35mm door would not sit well with the lining and hinges etc might not work with the existing fittings - I'm trying to do as little as possible to the existing frame and just replace the...

The existing door and frame do not have those strips.Would adding those strips add to the width, I thought they were built into the door frame itself? Existing door measurement is 782mm x 1955mm x 44mm I'm wondering if the previous owners got the 813mm solid doors and trimmed them down...

Thanks, seems like they do a lot more sizes but not 782mm - they have 762mm, 813mm, 838mm with varying trims around 4mm to 6mm Even with the 813mm, that will need 15mm off each side I'll call them later and check if they have any other options

Hello I am looking to replace my internal doors however the measurement of the door width is 782mm. I've looked online and it seems standard size width is 762mm or 838mm I'd like to get something like this however these can only be trimmed by 10mm...

Thanks for all your advice. For the window, I did use the glass film protection and not the hard surface one, but because it was facing the sun and on for a good few months, I think it had the same effect. Fortunately, for the island, I did just that and used antinox protector. Now I know to...

1st try: White Spirit (luckily had some in the shed) Seems to have done the trick! Thank you @GhostIntMachine Will check in the evening since that's when it was more obvious. Ive got the same marks on the window but only obvious when cleaning, is it still safe to use white spirit on glass?

I did wonder about wd40 but wasn't sure if it would take off the shine I wouldn't have thought about TCut, thanks.

Thank you, will try it out!

Thank you, appreciated. Will try and let you know.

Hi I put this hard surface protection film on the worktop for several weeks while the builders were working in the kitchen. However, now that I've taken it off, there are marks everywhere - doesn't come off with scrubbing. Any ideas how to remove these marks or has the film taken off the...

You can't fill the void, it looks like a vented space, so you will need air flow to avoid rot. Thanks, understood. Unless you fully insulate the floor, you will be wasting a lot of energy. Does this mean I shouldn't put UFH at all? You don't need DPM as the PIR has a built in vapour barrier...

I'm planning to fit a wet system underfloor heating on my ground floor. So need some advice please: The floor is timber suspended as shown below. The height of the gap below the joists is about 500mm. The joists themselves are 4'x2' (100mmx50mm). I plan to: - use battens on either side of the...

Thanks, will look into their systems.

Thanks for the replies and details. I should have mentioned, it wouldn't be just concrete - he mentioned there will be hardcore mot1, sand, membrane then insulation, concrete, UFH, screed, lvt https://www.continal.co.uk/system/pug-dry-mix - this looks like a good find, thanks Notch7

Any recommendations on a 5 zone underfloor heating system? We will have - kitchen 6mx7m (2 zone) - living room 1 4x3 (1 zone) - living room 2 3x3 (1 zone) - hallway (1 zone) Plan is to go on top of concrete, then will screed and then lvt. Thanks in advance

I'm looking at installing under floor heating. My builder has recommended to replace all of the floor joists under the living rooms x2 and hallway with concrete. We have a crawl space under the house so there will be a lot of hardcore and concrete to fill. Probably the perimeter is about 1.3m...

Hi All, My roof gutter is leaking in the middle of the house right above the sloping conservatory roof. What's the safest way to get to the guttering above a sloping conservatory roof - for example: thanks,

I am about to replace our ground floor flooring - about 85sqm. I have used solid wood flooring in the past however I understand that it's not suitable for underfloor heating which I'm planning to install. I have two living rooms, hallways, utility room and kitchen/dining. 1. I have read that...

Thank you for taking the time, really appreciate it and yes I agree, it really needs to get sorted.
