But would t it be better to go for the ip75 if they’re available. Actually I’ve got a pack of four left over from the kitchen which is the one from the The photo.

Any suggestions for those tiny purple niche lights that go into the top of an alcove in the shower area? Also forgot to ask, are those Ip65 Gu10 holders with glass generally so small in the surface area of the light. I checked the ones I have in my kitchen and the light can only get out of a...

It’s a regular thermostatic shower linked to a gas boiler. What is IPX4 compared to an IP65? So I was thinking of putting the spotlight immediately above the overhead shower.

Ceiling is 2.4m and yes 240v fitting. I’d probably say no, water cannot spray onto the fitting though it will have one of those overhead shower heads as well as a hand shower on a wall rail. Thx.

Am I correct in understanding that you can install a IP65 rated GU10 ceiling spot light above a shower?

What is your definition of prepared prior to the first thin coat of emulsion to be absorbed into the plasterboard wall or skimmed brick wall?

The walls were painted with a first coat of matt emulsion paint a couple of years ago.

That's a good point. I called them after you msg. Speaking to developer services they said that I'm not allowed to connect my new pipe into the chamber box stopcock and that if I wanted 32mm pipe or more it will cost £150 odd for an application fee and the cost of changing it will be between...

Anyone?

I'm having a torrid time with Valspar paint bought from B&Q. This is both their trade version and V900 paint. It's supposed to be scrubble paint but having put one coat on our plasterboard walls (they were skimmed a few years ago and had one watered down white emulsion paint put down before...

Is it a good idea to fit my own chamber with lid on top where I plan to start digging on my side of the boundary where I would connect my 32mm pipe to "whatever currently exists" so I have access to it in future in the event of a leak or anything. maybe use a manhole cover, as ugly as it looks?

So the bit I dont get, is I dont know what old size lead pipe is connected in the side meter chamber to them come under my boundary and then all the way into my home. I bought the house a few years ago and whilst we have good pressure, we want to renew the mains. It would be pointless...

Thx for your reply. This is my meter contained in a boundary box. The pipe run would be approximately 12 to 15m. How on earth would anyone even with a moling machine connect to the other side of this without disturbing the pavement.

When replacing the old lead or copper cold water supply from the street to inside the property, if the main stopcock and meter is in the street pavement, are we allow to connect the new blue pipe to the street stopcock or can we only go up to the boundary? In our case we have a double thick...

I’ll be installing dimmable GU10 across my home and was looking at the BG electrical range of black nickel light switches and sockets. I notice that their dimmer switches are leading edge rather than trailing edge though in all likelihood I’ll probably be buying a normal light switch and...

I had pest control confirm that rats have chewed into my various plastic drain covers in my garden which has resulted in smelly dead rodents under my ground floor. Are there any metal replacement covers available for the typical 150mm by 150mm drain covers?

Hi i bought a clearance sale 800mm wall hung unit and basin with the brackets but without the screws. Any ideas on what size screws or bolts I should get to safely secure the unit to the wall? Thx.

We have several of the 112cm wall hung Geberit sigma toilet frames which we are slowly connecting one by one. Most of the tanks fill quickly but for some reason one of the tanks fills really slowly like 3-4 minutes despite the stopcock in the flush plate being fully opened. The pressure on the...

And what’s a typical reason why someone would want a double or triple pole?

Does anyone here own an air source heat pump? If so, what size is it and could you please outline roughly how much more you pay in electrical energy costs since you had it installed?
