Do you know what make it is? It looks familiar but I can't put my hand on the details. K

Stop shouting dear, some one will be along in a minute... :wink: K

I'm not 100% certain about epoxy but with normal and flexible grouts there is a grout residue remover that you can get... HG, Lithofin, Fila etc all make their own versions of these, it may be worth giving their Technical lines a call to see if they are effective on epoxy grouts. This will...

Most smaller businesses can claim the majority of maternity pay back. When I was off work after having my son (I worked until two weeks before he was born, then I was back in work when he was 5 1/2 months old) my employer claimed back almost 95% of what I was paid. For small businesses who...

I wouldn't use anything lighter than a cement grey grout in a kitchen, there are grout sealants available from HG (and others) but in my experience they are not that effective and the grout will still darken over time. The only thing I would expect to stay true to its original colour would be...

Well said Some smart ar$e decided to butt joint 450x450 Polished Limestone in our showroom :roll: ... Even though it was onto a perfectly flat floor it still looks like carp :!: K

Just thought I'd share this how-not-to guide on doing a bathroom It doesn't really matter if the tiles don't meet in the corner... "of course tile adhesive sticks to chipboard :? " "it's fine if the sealant doesn't actually meet the bath" If for some reason you can't get...

I haven't actually looked up the Electrolux, :oops: It does depend on the size of the aperture though, some will only fit in a taller unit, some will need a filler piece underneath the oven. There are a few double ovens or oven/grill combinations that will fit in under a worktop (for cooking...

That means you have a Built-Under oven, and these are the ones that you should be looking at. The hob will come separately. Ovens: http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/indesit-fi21kbix-built-in-electric-single-oven-01065000-pdt.html...

Do you have a built-in oven (at about waist height) A built-under oven (under the worktop) Or a free standing oven and hob in one? K

Found a cheaper one... :wink: http://www.alertelectrical.com/prodvar/145/dimplex-oil-filled-electric-radiators-1kw-white?&utm_source=google-base&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=google-base-feed K

Maternity leave is paid at 90% of average wage for the first six weeks then £123(ish) per week for the next 33 weeks. The two weeks 'paid' time off that a father can have is at the base rate of £123(ish). It's the reason that so few fathers take the time off that's offered to them....

Aqua board is very much like MR plasterboard, which I wouldn't use in a wet area unless it is tanked. Definitely need to stick with cement based adhesive on that size tile. Provided the boards are securely fixed, you shouldn't need the Additive, but would need to prime the walls before...

The only reform that the NHS needs is a little streamlining in the Middle Management area. The proposals put forward by the muppets currently running the country will leave GPs facing increasingly difficult decisions ("do I authorise Mrs Jones' Cancer treatment or Mr Thomas' Dialysis? Will...

It's usually a good idea to put masking tape above and below. It is also easier to use a wet finger than the tool. K

I've just finished tiling the kitchen which my partner and I fitted. We're ripping out the bathroom next week, so I'll be back on tiling duty then... We have replaced sections of floor, plastered some walls, I've researched building a stud partition wall (we haven't started that yet though)...

The main thing seems to be to not use MDF as it has loads of nasties in it (formaldehyde?) :? The reason a lot of people tend not to fix to the wall is so that they can be pulled out to allow more heat (usually once sproglet is in bed!) They also have a hinged top to allow access to the...

Would something like these be any good? Seems the reduce heat output a bit though. http://www.salixonline.co.uk/rads/storage.html K

Usually you can call the customer service line and they'll email them to you. That said, this is Homebase we're talking about here :wink: Give it a try though... you may be surprised :D K
