Hi, I have a Neff Electric Oven (B14M62N0GB) (https://www.neff-home.com/uk/supportdetail/product/B14M62N0GB/01#/Tabs=section-spareparts/) There's a metal sheet above the top heater part which I've just noticed is hanging off - see attached pics. Looking at the parts diagram I think it's a...

So possible it was the live wire that became loose and touched the earthing bar...looks most likely. It's the same on the new ones he's fitted...poor design by schneider...and the original decor switch costs around £25...not cheap.

Had electrician come out and looks like one of the earthing wires came loose and touched the live wire. I've attached a pic for your reference. Now the electrician replaced it with one of these...

Yes it's an old fuse box and the fuses are indeed BS3036

Hi, I have neff electric oven and last night there was loud bang and when i went into the kitchen the red cooker switch with socket plug was all burnt out round edges. Any ideas what could have caused it? Is it going to require a new switch? Any help appreciated.

I've already got the paint and its water based. Wished they'd indicated that on the putty that the paint must be oil based. What if i put some oil based undercoat primer over the putty and then paint over with water based paint? Im sure you can paint over oil based paints with water based...

I've putty pointed some windows using linseed oil putty. Can I paint over this type of putty using a water based paint? For the record I have some water based zinsser exterior allcoat. The putty doesn't seem to indicate anything, all it says is allow 7 days to dry before painting. It's the...

Hi Ken, Can you paint over linseed oil putty using a water based paint. I'll be using the zinsser exterior all coat which is water based?

Hi, I have a window which needs to be putty pointed from the outside. I note linseed oil glazing putty can take anything between 7-21 days to dry before it can be painted. Does it matter if it rains within this time period, in other words will rain have any negative impact on the putties...

Since the boiler is still under warranty would baxi come and fix this as the service is not due for a while?

I checked the pressure relief pipe outside this morning and it did have some water dripping. Yes I do have it serviced annually but the guy doesn't seem to do much when he does the service, he takes some readings and that about it.

It's not a brand new install it's 4 years old and the original installer no longer operates.

So how would you determine if it's boiler related or not?

Hi, I have a baxi duo tec 28 HE which keeps dropping pressure and return E119 error code. In the last month it's had to be topped up 3 times and I topped up again early this week to 2 bar and today the pressure has dropped to below 1 bar. I've checked all the radiator valves for leaks but...

I have old timber window frames which tend to get a lot of condensation on the bottom sill, almost like small pool of water. Becuase of the water the paint always starts to peel off. Is there a suitable waterproof paint for interior wood such as above in a satin finish? Can I use exterior...

Ok so i've made a bit of botch up. I lightly sanded down some exterior gloss window frames and primed using dulux primer under coat and then painted the frames using dulux satin wood which is only suitable for interior instead of the gloss which is suitable for exterior. Can I paint over...

Hi, I want to tidy up the joint between where wallpaper meets a timber window frame. Not sure what product I should use. Would acrylic decorators caulk be ok or should I use silicone and if so is there any recommended brands e.g painters mate? Also around this join i.e between the window frame...

Thanks for the tips. Which 2-pack wood filler do you use? I've tried the ronseal 2 pack filler but with the natural colour it's difficult to tell when the hardner is thoroughly mixed in becuase it's white. It would help if the hardener was a different colour so that it's easier to see when your...

I have window frame and sill which has been painted over from the inside by someone with gloss paint. The paint is all cracking/peeling off. Beneath it, it looks like there is a mahogany varnish or stain. How can I tell what the original finish was, in other words how can I tell the difference...

It says multipupose wood filler on the tube?
