Just had a read up and looks about right. Will try a gentle power wash first and see how it goes. Cheers!

Have just moved into a new house that's only three years old but there's quite a bit of staining like this on some of the exterior walls. Is there a DIY solution other than painting? I've got a pressure washer - would do the trick?! Cheers!

Hi. New build - new installation. I'm going to be quite insistent in doing a nice job and will be quite happy to send him away if he refuses ;)

Thanks for the great reply Lucid - that's really useful. I guess it wouldn't be the end of the world if they just drill through the wall into one of those sockets ... as long as they do it tidy! Will see what the guy says on the day. Cheers!

There’s half a dozen exactly like this then about a dozen more just aerial sockets!

But there are at least half half a dozen of these around the house!

Just moved into a new build and there are these everywhere! Having Sky installed next week and wondered how they work? Are they all connected up centrally to a point in the loft? Will the Sky man just tap into that? Or will he need to connect to one of these that I choose? Or are they most...

Perfect. Thanks!

I have these big John Lewis lampshades but the ceiling roses in my new house are the traditional smaller size. Is there such a thing as an adapter of some sort so I don’t need to replace the roses?

Cheers Johnny - great advice. Just ordering now!

I need to paint the front of my house but not sure what to use? When I search for exterior wood paint I only seem to get fence paint. Is that all I need? What about the cream bits? Cheers!

BINGO!!! Just searched my emails for that and found the order. Cheers!

I bought this online a few months back as an emergency fix for a small leak behind the sink and now need to buy another one but can't for the life of me find it again! I've checked my emails and searched online but don't really know what it's called. It's about 1m long but I seem to remember...

Thanks terryplumb! Will see if anyone's still working!

I have a conventional boiler with a Hive heating system and recently I've noticed that the radiators are getting hot even when they shouldn't be (ie when Hive should only be heating hot water). I think it's down to this thing right? I've noticed it's 'clicking' sometimes. Is this faulty? Do I...

This is my dining room ceiling :( It's been like this for a long time but it steadily getting worse. Above it is the en suite which I assume is leaking somewhere. Now I have lots of time on my hands I'm thinking what I can do. The shower room is tiled and I'm thinking better to go at it from...

I’m looking to replace four kitchen worktops - can anyone give me a rough price to remove old then cut and fit new? Thanks!

Ah thanks! Got it. A quick Google has come up with nothing though :( Gone out of business?

I want to buy another. Reckon it’s 7 years old and likely B&Q but they don’t seem to have any :( Any tips hugely welcome.

I think my kitchen is a bit dated but don’t have the money for a new one! It’s 20 years old but not really in bad nick. I’m thinking of just swapping the handles. Good idea? Anyone able to recommend something that looks good? I can just remove the fake hinges right? Really not good at this sort...
