I am taking up my old wooden flooring and laying a new engineered floor of the same 14mm thicknes. The floor is in the Hallway, Lounge and Dining rooms. Is it OK to have a continuous flow or do I need to stop at the doorways and put strips between the rooms under the doors as there...

I have a Yale Composite back door and I would like to fit a Cat flap in it. I am very good at DIY and would rather do this job myself as I have fitted one before in a wooden door. Make a template of catflap, make sure its level and draw round it, drill holes in the 4 corners, cut out using...

Thanks Ivor I think this may of happened when I replaced the windows with double glazing 5 years ago when they hammered out the old wooden frames, but it would be hard to prove.

The house was built in 1998. the insurance company Churchill said they wont pay out because its wear and tear!!!!

What is the best way to fix this problem? Above my 1st floor far left window lintel there are 6 courses of bricks that are loose below the arch (See photo) when I push it with my hand the whole lot moves in and out as one about 1cm! Or see this link:-...

I used like for like as it lasted 8 years before it went bad, 16V 1000uF 105°C Long Life radial Capacitor Long Life Ultra Low impedance / Low ESR 4000 Hours @ 105 C

OK I've fixed it. I was advised by a "TV Engineer" that it was the AV Board, so I went out and bought for one £15 swapped them out and no different, Thanks! I decided to look at the PSU board where I noticed that one capacitor (C208) was slightly rounded on the top, so I bought one for...

Hi My sons LG32LC2D TV has been crackling from the speakers and now he has lost all freeview channels and it will not retune. Although the tv turns on and the screen say "no signal" He is unable to get any picture at all not even through his XBox! Any idea what this could be and do you...

I have removed the panel over the fan and The fridge has been switched off for 24 hours so there is no buildup of Ice

Its a Frost Free Freezer so there is no build up of Ice in the freezer compartment and the fan is working fine. It could either be the PCB or the Thermister but I want to make sure I buy the right thing as the Thermister is around £10 and the PCB £50!

I have a Candy Fridge Freezer Model CPCA291FFK and the upper Fridge compartment is acting like a Freezer although the thermostat is turned down as far as it will go! The Freezer compartment below is working fine. I have had an Engineer look at it and he has said it needs a new PCB P/N...

I am fitting a 2nd hand Triton Opal 2 shower that was removed serviceable because of a power shower upgrade and I thought I would test the Solenoid Resistance which Triton say should read 3.5 Kilohm, The one I have read 3.486 would the tolerance of 0.014 make any difference?

Update The Thermal cut out in above photos was faulty and would not reset so replaced it for £30 and now all working fine. :D

I done that last year with hammerite paint but its come through again. the corrosion is causing the paint to bubble. Last time i rubbed it down the used aluminium primer then hammerite.
