But what is single pole switching? I'm not familiar with this term.

BG says their products are guaranteed for 5 years.....when you say they fail, do you mean the smart function or the whole socket doesnt work? What is the single v double pole all about? Thanks for your reply.

It's all relative. I could financials with my eyes closed but struggle with colour choice. I'm still trying to find barber's paint!

Yes that is obvious, but someone who is not have an eye for colours and interior design, it's nice to get ideas. No different to you perhaps asking if you should invest all your pension in crypto, I could say your money, you choice invest it how you please....or get some suggestions from people...

Thanks for your input. We don't have any furnishings in any of the rooms yet. We have bought a lot of untinted Valspar paint from B&Q under their 3 for 2 offer and will take the cans back for tinting once we have chosen a colour, but looking at a light cream colour. Have you seen (or painted)...

Hi Some suggestions please: 1. When painting a loft room which has sloping ceilings (that form part of the gable roof), should these be painted white to match the ceilings or best to match the colour of the paint of the walls? 2. I'm stuck for ideas as to whether I should paint the whole...

Anyone used this?

I always thought eggshell was used in kitchen ceilings and walls because of grease etc?

What do you decorating pros recommend for painting white on door linings, architrave and skirting (latter two will be MDF)? Gloss white paint or Matt? which is more durable? thx.

Not helpful. And more importantly, not one of your wittiest comments.

I bought a 600mm possibly 700mm size sink and wall hung unit as part of a clearance sale. No screws or bolts etc supplied. ideally would size abs type of screws should I be buying to ensure a safe installation so that it doesn’t not collapse?

What is the generally accepted thickness of toughened glass for a balustrade around a stairway and gallery landing? And separately what is the recommended thickness? I ask for both in case there is a difference. Thx.

So, that wall is plaster skimmed for the most part and then lined for the smaller part? Or is it skimmed the entire length and then lining put on top? Would MDF make for a good replacement for solid wood lining when it comes to installing 3 lever mortice dead locks etc or will it be easy to...

I've never known the full wall thickness to not be lined. It would look odd wouldn't it any other way?

Factor of 3?

I honestly don't know and it's not mentioned anywhere and not easy to weigh unless I bring a pair of scales to the building site and Mr standing on it as I'm not living at the property yet.

Can I have some views please on using MDF for door linings and fire linings. Will pink 25mm fire linings be sufficient as I know wood linings needs to be around 30mm or 32mm. Also is best to splash out and us moisture resistant ones everywhere despite it going to be painted white? How do I...

Yes that is the one. John there is a risk that my car when parked in the garage, my left front tyre (therefore the heavier engine load bearing weight) will either slowly go over it or park on top of it as it's the correct position where my car will eventually come to a stationary stop. Not...

The whole car is not going to put its weight on one wheel. Whilst I don't know what the weight is on one wheel most tyres including mine say that the tyre can take 650kg. It just feels soft when walking over this drain. Curious to know what others experience when fitting manhole covers.
