yeah its a silly price. I've found some extended brush intumescent seals which are about £15 per door. Just wondering if there is another way around this other then changing the old doors?

I've just come across this. https://www.ironmongerydirect.co.uk/product/lorient-44mm-intumescent-door-edge-protector-falmouth-white-strip-690591?vat=1&shopping=true&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIoqPj9vDh2gIVzb_tCh0B1ANzEAQYAiABEgJxq_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds#specification I think its made for this issue?

It already has a intumescent strip in the door. But the gap still seems too wide. Maybe wooden strip on the door frame jamb?

Hi All, I've noticed gaps between the door leaf edge and the door jamb frame. Its a fire door which should only have a 3mm gap. At the moment its more like 11mm in some places. I was wondering how can this be repaired without changing all the doors? I was thinking wood filler the door until...

thanks for the help guys :)

Yes go smaller, or get a custom rad as long as the BTU is correct for the room. The best way it to re-adjust the tails from below ground and bring them up to the correct position.

Hi All, I'm looking to build a brick/block shed in the garden. There is one thing i'm not to sure about. If i wanted to make a 1m long wall for example and i used 215mm brick, i would do as below. 215mm + 10mm + 215mm + 10mm + 215mm + 10mm + 215mm = 890mm (0.89m not 1metre) If i add a...

Thanks Muggles :) Microbore is still a good system, just needs maintaining.

They recently moved into this house, so no floor boards have been lifted yet. A manifold must be under the floor. The pump was taken out and taken apart to inspect, all seemed fine. The rads all get hot, from top to bottom, but take some time in doing so. must still be clogged at the rads...

Thanks for the reply muggles. Those parts were needed the pcb board went because it kept over heating, which ended up burning the board. After that the fan went, so decided to change the fan and switch at the same time. I could feel the rads warming up midway, but then again the rads do look...

amazing work, how much savings do you think you made?

I did the power flush, i've been through the training and worked with others in the passed who have done it, it's not something i would recommend anyone to go out do if they don't have any experience or training of doing it. A whole day was spent doing it and using the products etc. may be there...

Hi All, I've been trying to help a friend out with his central heating issue. He has a wall hung Baxi Solo 3 pfl 60 regular boiler with a vented f&e in the loft. The pipe work to the radiators are 8mm micro bore. The boiler works good for about 30mins then switches off, then it will restart...
