    Bathroom Mixer Tap Connectors

    Evening all. Treated myself to a nice new mixer tap for the en suite this afternoon and thought I’d get on with fitting it when I got home. Everything went to plan until I got to connecting the female thread tap connectors onto what I thought were BSP male threads. I couldn’t get the thread to...

    Soil Pipe Fittings

    Thanks for the reply. It’s certainly not a fitting I’ve seen before. Doesn’t look like any sort of “connection” up close so I’m inclined to agree with the “fudge” verdict. That McAlpine looks the job - shame I can’t find one in white though ‍♂️

    Soil Pipe Fittings

    Evening all. My soil pipe has developed a leak where the shower waste connects to it and I’ve got a new strap on boss and 50x40mm adaptor and my plan was to fit this where the existing connection is. The strap-on fits the main 110mm pipework perfectly - HOWEVER the shower waste currently...

    Hormann Garage Door - Smart Opening

    Sorry no, but will have a search. Is it a Meross or Hormann video?? I’ve also just found a compatibility guide which says it does work AND what terminals to connect to! Mega

    Hormann Garage Door - Smart Opening

    Hi - I’ve got a double garage with 2 Hormann Promatic garage door openers. I’d like to be able to open these using either my phone or Alexa/Siri (I have both devices). I’m thinking something like the Meross receiver kit (I know I’d need one per door)...

    Hormann Promatic garage door remote stopped working

    Hi - I’m having the same problem as the OP. I’ve got 2 of the larger remotes, and a small key fob remote. Both of the larger remotes failed at the same time and I’ve changed the batteries in both. Now the led on the fob doesn’t even come on. I’ve tried cleaning the terminals to no avail. Any...

    Frost Stat Question

    That’s how I thought it would work; however the switched live from the frost stat is wired to the live to the boiler and then another 2 live which run to the wiring centre in the airing cupboard. One is connected to the pump live and the other is (I think) wired to the valve. When the frost...

    Frost Stat Question

    OK, so the pipework rises up from the boiler and then runs across the width of the double garage (in the garage’s “loft” space) On that basis I put the pipe stat in the garage loft and set it to 10degC? Thanks for help

    Frost Stat Question

    Hi all. I've come across this post from a Google search as I seem to have the exact same problem as the OP. We moved into a mid-90's built property in October last year after ~12 years of living in new builds so I am well and truly back on this forum :LOL: We've got a Baxi 400 heat only...

    Kitchen Paint Advice

    Good morning all, We've recently embarked on a new Utility Room project which also includes painting the kitchen. It's a new build house (3.5 years old but this is the first lick of paint the kitchen will have had) plus there's some bare plaster where we've moved doors as part of the Utility...

    Soil pipe fittings - WC move

    Got it done today. There was no budging the 110 pipe that was popping up so if it wasn’t solvent welded then the slab had really got hold of it!! Managed to get it cut square & chamfered and broke enough of the floor slab out to get a socket bend onto it. Just need to get the rest of the...

    Soil pipe fittings - WC move

    Thanks. Going to have a proper look this weekend as I can’t tell if it’s been solvent welded to the below ground or if it’s been cast in with the slab. I’m guessing the latter so I’ll see if it will turn at all first

    Soil pipe fittings - WC move

    Cheers pal. I’m looking at the Terrain catalogue and from what I can work out there’s 51mm of insertion depth for a socket. Does that sound right to you??

    Soil pipe fittings - WC move

    Good morning all, I'm looking to move my cloakroom (downstairs) WC. The intended location is 90 degrees in rotation and about 1m in pipe length from the current soil pipe pop-up through the slab. The previous WC position was sat directly above the pop-up and a long flexible pan connector was...

    Karndean & Levelling Compound

    Thanks for all the advice guys. Got it all up on Thursday night. It just lifted in places proving that it hadn't adhered to the slab properly.

    Radiator Circulation

    Good evening all, I'm mid-way through a project which has involved moving 2 radiators and branching off one of these to install a new radiator. I did all the first-fixing a while ago (drained down, made break-ins etc...) and today I have drained down again and made the final connections. I...
