The better option is to spend a bit of money on a "bolt down" meta post and a new 3 by 3 post. The bolt down is a flat plate you bolt onto the floor with a square the post slots into, here are some examples...

I am not sure i understand you, are you saying you want to replace the concrete posts and if so why do you want to as slotted concrete posts should outlast you and all you need do is replace the panels if they rot. Anyway, firstly it sounds like you are getting what are called "pinelap"...

The wife bought a kitchen unit and she wants it hanging on a interior wall that is just 2 bits of plaster board oposite each other and NO WAY will it hold the unit empty let alone with all the crap she intends to put in it. SO, i was wondering if any of you had advise about how to hang it...

I love the green colour, it goes on well and as a background colour it brings out the best of what is in your borders. Wickes do a good looking green that can be sprayed or brushed on and you will get about 20-30sqm (depending on the state of your fencing) per tub and its around £11. PS...

If you are going to use a nailer for feather edge you need a proper Framing nailer that can fire good headed nails not summat that shoots out brad pins. The Tacwise 191EL fires thin staples and pins that are worthless for anything other than upholstering a chair or sofa to be honest.

Pea gravel and a leaf blower/vacuum could solve your problems. If it helps LIDL have a promo on a leaf blower/vacuum on monday the 12th of september for 39.99. At that price its a throw away when it eventually breaks, i got a 18inch 2 stroke chainsaw from them over 18 months ago for the...

I assume the mushies are small brown and not in a circle?. If so the mushrooms just mean that when you laid the turf there was some organic material in the soil under it. That material in he soil is all eventually broken down by beneficial microscopic fungi - and in doing so, they...

I have roughly 43 meters of featheredge fencing, the 5 x 3 posts are cut off 3 inches below the top of the feather edge boards (6 inches below in parts) and i want to put 18 inches of trellis on top. Can anybody give me advise on how i should fix the trellis to the top of the fence...

Ok so heres a image that is almost to scale: http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/8548/drawings.jpg The drawing does not show it but the cutting around the conservatory are larger than they look. Including the path i should need roughly 100 x 600mm x 600mm slabs. Im going to go to a...

As far as the long cut back towards the house from the coni is concerned il just start/end it in such a position that i can lay full slabs and run my saw down a steel bar so the edge is perfect. Its more about the fact that several of the connected corners i need to follow are not 90deg so il...

1. The manufacturer recomends close jointing although i am considering using Romex (polymeric product) for the joints as one of the colours they have would really enhance the slabs effect althogh that depends on what the minimum mm width is for the product as i have not found that out yet. 2...

Hi, I am about to start a patio project and i would like some advise on a few points. http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/1944/patiodesign.jpg Here is a simplistic image of the general shape, as you can see the alley between my house and the garage is not parallel (its roughly 5.2 mtrs...
