cheers Stivino-great idea-those guys see so much stuff....

I have a much loved and ancient workmate-the sort with diecast alloy frames and the latch levers are a weak point-don't suppose anyone knows where to find either old workmates or spares?

Thanks everybody-looks like i need to to do a bit of homework-lightingwise

Thanks-does that mean they don't get hot-customer said the previous fluorescents heated the units up.

Thanks Steve-most helpfull-especially tip about plinth led's-sorry-what are cfl's?

Thanks for the replies. Steve; modern -black corian,veneered,bespoke cabinets. ricicle; Thanks-will check out the local wholesaler Bernarnd; Thanks-mood of course is secondary to function,and this customer is a serious foodie,but folks spending a load on a kitchen like to sort of present...

I have a top end kitchen to design,make,and install,and I want to use lighting to enhance the setting,but am out of my depth,and most of the electricians i know are reluctant to advise on designer lights,so i was wondering how to get sensible advice.

Hope someone can help. I have got some spots of the evil black sludge that lives in radiator bottoms on a customers block paving-small spots,but I've got to get them out-is chemical best,or pressure wash,or if i have to turn the blocks over,how difficult is that?

Ah-ok that would be neat-sticking it to 'em with a FOI! Thanks Woody

Thanks John Checked with LA today-have to submit written request plus £35.00.Ho hum! Still,probably need it in writing anyway if going to war with Anglian-LA would only say if there is street lighting,pavement etc to be maintained,must be adopted,but road could still belong to someone else,I...

Thermo; Thanks will give the local authority a call tomorrow

John Many thanks for the advice-the reason Anglian water gave today when they came to inspect was that the leg from the boundary to the sewer was under an unadopted road-although the road has street lighting,yellow lines,and looks like any other road,would there be a way of independantly...

many thanks Richard-will do as you suggest-as the reason for the connection was to do away with a dreaded macerator,looks like I'm out of the frying pan......

I've just connected a w.c to an existing salt glazed pipe in an old property,(with the relevant building control approval)-but it looks like there is a restriction outside the property boudary,Anglian water say the drain would seem to be shared,but unadopted.Checking other threads on the...

Aav's -gotta have 'em-BC says so,forum says so time and again,they are used a bit randomly in the trade,often outside which we know is wrong-what I can't quite grasp is,you don't get a full bore condition when you operate a w.c.-2" flush valve,4" pipe-so do you get a partial vacuum,which might...

thanks.may need to rethink the chamber size

I'm just laying some new drains,and I have notified building control,there are two chambers,the 250mm Osma kind,and I was wondering about the practicality of rodding such a small chamber-nothing was said by the b.c. officer-is there meant to be a seperate rodding eye connected to one of the side...

I have been asked to look at a friends zanussi jetsystem 1200-it looks as though the impeller is jammed-it looks like the pump should unclip,but i am worried about breaking a tag or something,as i can't see an obvious method of detaching the clips-it must be simple,there does seem to be a...

many thanks mushy,just what i was looking for.

Thought I had most c/c washers,but just been caught out by a shires which needs a large,soft foam donut,I have been trying to track down a supplier which I came across on this forum a while back (there was a link)-who had a vast array of washers/flush valves etc-hope someone can help,or else its...
