Hi all, Trainee here.. just wanted to ask a question. Wall being knocked through and made into a door into the garage. There is a radial 2.5mm in the way and some 1.5mm lighting circuit. So I need to extend the cables to get them out the way. Am I okay jointing with a maintenance free JB...

Hi All.. I'm not able to pull the SWA for a few months now.. But before the builders start this week I do need to come out the CU and into a adaptable box outside for when I do. We are going with 6mm, so can I just use...

I think regardless, I will be coming through the wall direct to the CU.. just looked at the regs and there is no need for fire sealant, although I may use some anyway. I think I'll just use the double insulated SWA tails directly into the board rather than joint with the FP.

Hi, No the CU is in the garage.. but will be running it to the shed.. I did think of doing as you suggested, but with the CU being where it is, I thought I would add a designated circuit.

Good morning all.. Just wanted to ask for some advice. Running power to my shed from my consumer unit..(I know it is notifiable) I will be running 6mm armoured, so I come out of my CU with some 6mm FP I have and straight through the wall to the back of the house, I then use a JB to joint to...

How would I know?

That's what I thought.. thanks pal

Hi all, I have a S58T40X0GB/45 Neff Integral dishwasher. It stopped mid wash and now has no power.. Plug top is fine and is fuse and outlet. I wondered if it was an internal fuse, but after researching Neff don't have internal thermal fuses. If I'm correct, I need a new control board.. but...

Anyone help with a tip to remove a stripped thread grub screw ? Its on a Franke mixer tap at the back and is a pain in the arse ! Everything just spins in it... Thanks

Just stripped the old wallpaper.. and the previous guy who stripped the other wall paper has left scrapes all over the wall.. (Supposed professional) I have just filled with filler and will sand out.. it's a new build so the walls are pretty smooth.. Will I need lining paper?

Hi all.. I have a wall 4300 long and have panel wall paper 530 in width.. so just over 8 lengths needed. Any advice as this wall paper has a panel pattern on it like below.. do I still start in the middle and add a little 50mm slither at the ends? Also I have some drywall filler that has...

Thanks pal, Yes that is what I will do.. wondered about the foam.. suppose that will help with the missing insulations aswell

Hi all, I have a 50mm hole going from the living room through to the external wall and outside, this is where cables ran. It is dot and dab, breeze block insulation then brick.. what is the best way to fill the hole internally and externally ? Also do I need to add more insulation ? Thanks...

Why would I extend the HDMI.. ? It is to be able to move the box from the corner of the room.. https://www.kenable.co.uk/en/video-cables/satellite-cable-tv/satellite-cable/7410-twin-satellite-moulded-f-type-plug-to-socket-rg6-extension-cable-10m-black-007410-5055383474103.html I don't...

The reply was very condescending.... such as "Are you going to repeat the same mistake when the TV is relocated?" & "God knows what coax you've bought from Kenable. Most of what I see there is either the moulded cable junk or the crappy CCS RG6" Why not offer an alternative ? I'm sure you are...

Strange reply... angry little man TV is at the perfect height.. yes I can see what I need to do.. as just questioning joists as there will be quite a few holes

Just bought the best stuff from Kenable... So I think the joists are running left to right should they be 400mm apart ? going to be alot of holes !

Yeah suppose I can do that... She will love me when she sees the holes

I need to move the TV from one side of the room to the other... But the Sky cable will need extending... It will look awful clipped on the skirting.. so I'll fish it across like the blue in the picture. Will I have any issues? I don't mind making a few holes as it's getting repainted. Just...

Hi all.. What fixing would you suggest for this going into breeze block ? Thanks Mark
