get a non return valve on the hot feed to the shower side. note NOT on the HW tank to pump side

Not really a DIY disaster but one of the most mortifying experiences I have had….. In Wickes last weekend looking for a new shower for the en-suite. They have a sale on. Get a 900mm quad tray, the enclosure, the waste and a mixer shower for £229!!! The wife O.K.’s it and I send her back to the...

That concrete has to come up. It's too high up and looks close to the DPC. I was in the same situation as you last year. I ripped all the patio up, relayed the drains, put a linear drain hard against the house and then relayed a new patio about six inches lower than the original. Not easy but if...

EEEEKK. Never seen that before. Most unusual. First off I would get the cr@p out of the joints.. all of it. Then I would use something lime a Romex patio sweep in type synthetic mortar. That is unless oyu fancy a few weeks on your knees pointing that lot.

After my Dyson packed in I bought a Sebo. Great build quality, good suction but a bit heavy and bagged but still better than a Dyson.... or so my missus tells me. :D

shouldn't the share holders be bailing the banks out?

Are you guys for real? The government finds the cash to bail out the fat bankers who got us into this mess and yet you squirm when Jag and LR come cap in hand due to a mess not of their own making. Never forget who got us in this position… BANKERS. It was their recklessness fecklessness and...

Yes it does show :D ... but major kudos for looking before leaping. These boards are full of people who wished they'd done the same. Look at the discussions on Paving expert.... result...Stay away from PIC.

sounds like he's brushed in a dry mix. These never work. If he's that much of a cowboy to use that technique, don't hold you breath for him coming back to fix it. here's how it should be done. http://www.pavingexpert.com/pointing.htm

Hi, I am planning to install a power shower and have a Stuart turner 3 bar dual pump for this purpose. Currently there is a low pressure open vented system supplying a thermostatic mixer with 15mm pipe. I plan to upgrade this to 22m john guest speedfit. The trouble is that the only reasonable...

I did the this last year. In the following steps… 1. bed the hearth. My floor was flat and the hearth thick so I used a silicone sealant to keep it in place. But you can use a weak mix if preferred or the floor uneaven. 2. Fix the legs to the wall and the hearth. I used tile cement for the...

You culd try a 'rubbing stone' Which worked well on my Yorkstone fireplace. It's a bit like a wet stone that you would use for sharpening chisels. I got mine here... http://www.masonrysupplies.co.uk/home.html

First off I would stop the water pooling against the house. Either change the ground level and camber or install a linear drain against the house which discharges to a sewer or soak away. When I had solved that part I would wait and see if the bricks dry out on their own. You are right to be...
