Yes, figured it out but thanks. Managed to drop the white plastic in the pic right down into flush mechanism in doing so.

Hi all Close coupled toilet with push button flush. Lid doesnt come off. So i flipped the buttons out with a screwdriver expecting to see a screw as per other toilets iv seen in the past. I just have the two white plastic parts where the buttons sat on. Also i have managed to push them...

Ok, suppose il have to try something! Thanks for helping.

Yes there is. Not sure how i could remove these neatly though tbh?

Doors came today and yes theyre slightly too big by about 5-10mm. I've offered up the new unit to the opening from the outside with the existing door and frame still in place and they dont quite fit into the recess between the render. What can I do? Im reluctant to start hacking away at the...

Yes they are made and on the way now. The exterior walls are rendered and i measured on the outside of the existing door from render to render. I'm now hoping I might be ok as presumably there won't be render underneath the existing door frame so I should hopefully have some wriggle room and...

Hi guys Think i mightve screwed up. Ordered some french doors that are wxh 1790 x 2090 from local building merchants. All paid for but not arrived yet. I measured the opening beforehand as 1790 x 2090 but now realise that perhaps i should have ordered smaller to allow for...

Thanks for the replies. I think il go with the 2x6 method. Any thoughts on coach bolt spacing? Down the centre or in pairs?

Let me sum up that 20 minute for you..... make sure you buy ones that are covered.

Thats the plan. Will post back.

No window work no. When I say lift, i mean cut out and replace.... just to see whats happening. Do you have any thoughts?

House built circa 1999/2000 Not sure which way the joists run yet but im guessing left to right in the pics as there are two weight bearing walls in between. Going to lift a floorboard (tongue and groove chipboard) which all seem perfectly intact at the mo. No cracking outside. No work done...

Hi guys 4 bed detached. Downstairs kitchen ceiling is coming away from the coving. If I get someone to walk in this area in the bedroom above, I can see the ceiling moving slightly up and down (enough to have caused this cracking of the interface between ceiling and coving). I am therefore...

As above but its also possible the water from the shower head is leaking down through the tap holes of the bath.

How so? I have a dedicated 32amp radial circuit to one of those 45a switches above the kitchen worktop and the 'cooker' switch serves a further double 45a connection unit under the worktop with an electric oven and induction hob connected. Nothing wrong with that.

Do not jumper live to common or you'll fry your boiler pcb. The wiring is a straight swap as you suggest.

Whats underneath the transparent silicone where the tray meets the bottom of the tiles along the horizontal - its not grout is it?
