    Curtain Pole Holder - What is this and where can I get it?

    Hi there, I need to put up a curtain pole - but I'm missing one of these attachments which screws into the wall. Any idea what it is called and where I can get one - I can't find one on eBay but I'm probably searching for the wrong thing! :) Thanks!

    Dripping Tap - Can't get tap off

    Unfortunately not making a huge amount of progress. First photo is from the top, second photo is from the side (unfortunately the side of the handle doesn't come off) and the last is from the underside. I'm convinced it's the underside which should unscrew and open the fixings but I'm...

    Thanks. Have got the handle off but there are no caps at the end of the tap. There's space for an allen key underneath but it's not getting the tap off. Any thoughts?

    Dripping Tap - Can't get tap off

    Hi there, We've got a dripping tap - hot water (so left hand side). There's a space at the back of the tap for what looks to be an allen key but none of the keys are turning it in a way which I can get the tap off. Unfortunately I think we might be looking at a replacement tap. I want to...

    Stacked Vent (Toilet) & Extractor Fan Vent

    Hi there, We've got a stacked vent in our roof which I'm told is for the toilet in the upstairs bathroom. Our bathroom doesn't currently have an extractor fan - we are putting one in. The plan is to go up and out of the roof. Am I right in saying that we will need a separate roof vent ie does...

    Insulate a Fireplace opening

    Hi there, I'm thinking about insulating my fireplace opening - a few people have said it might be worth doing. It's a fairly largely opening (see photo below) and we were wondering about doing it onto the back wall and side walls. We don't want to take out the woodburner though - so would need...

    Loft Insulation Material

    Hi there, We've just moved house and I'm about to sort loft insulation in the property (it's between the joists but not across - and certainly not up to the 270mm we want to aim for). A couple of questions if that's ok: 1. Any suggestions on which type of loft insulation? We are looking at...

    Modulating Gas Boiler and Smart Thermostat

    Interestingly, just had a response from Worcester Bosch: "As a regular heat only boiler the RI will be typically installed on a zoned system to provide heat to the heating/cylinder circuit. These systems are wired to provide a 230vac switched demand to the boiler and so the Bosch Easy /...

    Modulating Gas Boiler and Smart Thermostat

    Hi there, We've got a fairly old(ish) boiler installed in 2012 - a Worcester Bosch Greenstar Ri: https://www.plumbase.co.uk/link/1/h016641_28413_t.pdf Manual seems to suggest it's a modulating boiler presumably using the EMS bus language. I've been researching about modulating vs on-off and...

    Radiators not coming on

    Managed to get it down to manual in the end and the heating came on. It's 2/3 of the way between auto and manual (closer to auto) but not moving. Is it ok to leave it as it is - not really sure what it does!

    Radiators not coming on

    Hiya, I hope you might be able to help. Went to turn on the central heating today and no warming on the radiators. Hot water has been coming on fine - I noticed that the little one had increased the dial on the hot water tank to about 80C so turned that one down. The boiler increases...
