Yes, i'll do that then. Thanks

Hi all, I've got a Rolec WallPod Type 1 charger (J1772 i think the model is) that has it's own RCD (not sure what type) and i'm going to get it installed on the wall outside which has my external electrical (incoming) meter box on and on the inside of that wall is my CU so although i'm going...

Hi all, Anyone recommend a really good glue for Vinyl sheet flooring to wooden floorboards ? I'm laying some for my Daughter and accidentaly ripped it and it's quite a long rip (about 12 inches) but luckily it's not in a high footfall area. I don't need a lot i don't think so a tube would be...

I'll grab a photo and full measurements tomorrow but the fridge is 91cm wide (so making the gap 100cm) the height is up to the top of the brick opening (i.e where I've taken the brick out to see behind it) and it's deeper than the fireplace is but we're fine with it sticking out so we'll only...

Hi all, I've got an old dis-used fireplace on the kitchen that I'm hoping to get widened to fit an American sized fridge freezer as it's currently just dead space. The wall WAS boarded up in some old cladding and so I've taken that off to see what the arrangement was behind it and i thought it...

Thanks all, i might be looking to get an external EV charger fitted in the next few months so i'll get them to fit some blanks if they're needed and thanks for confirming the total amps question...this is why i don't go messing around in there !

Hi all, I've had a look inside my consumer unit (picture below) and it looks like there are 2 RCCB's in there but there's one at either end but on doing some investigation i get the impression that these should have the fuses that they protect on the left or right but on mine there are 8...

Hi all, I've got an old sectional concrete panel garage with a concrete floor that i have a small area on (about a foot wide) that is constantly damp and sometimes has water on it. I can't see that it's coming in through the walls but i can't see any "obvious" cracks in there and it's not...

Hi all, I've got one of the old pre case panel type garage that lets in water through the slight gaps between the bottom of the panels and the floor base however this is only on one end and this is because the garden at that end is higher than the join by about a foot so when it rains the water...

Stitch drilling might be an option...i didn't think of that...i've got some ceramic/tile bits, thanks

Hi all, I've got an 80mm french drain to put in my garden and need to connect it into my water drain but the trap drain that i need to connect it to is an older square terracota one. I can obviously dig it all out and replace it with a plastic one but i wondered if anyone had ever managed to...

I'll take off the top layer and see where it is level too, I don't mind it being slightly higher than the top of the slabs as we'll eventually re-slab it all anyway so we can always raise it back up a bit and yeah, I'll clean all the inlets out before i put the new cover (and frame) back on) but...

Ah,cool, 'i'll take that top layer off then. I don't think i can do about anything the state of the internal bits but this will be better. Many Thanks

Hi all, i've got a drain cover (as per the picture below...obviously taken off) that is sat smack bang in the middle of our walkway between the house and the garden. This is the main drain that runs through all the houses on the road and although the picture doesn't show it the cover is a layer...

Hi all, I've read quite a few posts and recommendations for painting OSB3 but the cost of what is recommended make a Latex/Acrylic based paint a massive cost hike for us but a lot of people/posts around states they have painted using masonry paint but others said not to use a water based paint...

I've been out early this morning and noticed that the inside of the roof was covered in frost (as it's -3c here) and gone back a bit later and it's all dripping so i think i went in yesterday after it had thawed and so yes, looks like it was condensation in the form of the frost melting when the...

I've not put ply under mine, mine is supported every foot or two with cross member joists but i can't see that causing the issue as it's not appearing to be sagging anywhere

One thing with you saying condensation is that my Daughter moved back in with us for a while and she's been sat in there with a blow heater on for a number of weeks but has now gone back home to her own house about 5 days ago and since then the heater has not been used ? Could this be a result...

So I've got numerous 2 x 4's across the span of the roof of the Garage and then used the Onduline black capped screws into the wooden beams every 2 or 3 feet. There's plenty of ventilation in and out of the garage. Just to confirm though that these ARE waterproof aren't they ? I can find a lot...

Hi all, I put Onduline bitumen roofing sheets on my garage this year (about 8 months ago) and it's constantly leaking. I've overlapped the sheets fine but there are massive patches of wet on the underside of the sheets i.e there's not a few leaks where it's dripping out of a 1cm wide gap or...
