    There is a horrible noise on the cold water indeed. I will try the flow regulator, thank you.

    Reduce flow or pressure?

    Indeed, the idea struck me this afternoon. I have done that and it works. Silly me :) I bought it in B&Q

    Reduce flow or pressure?

    I've been stupid and went for aesthetics over practicality and bought a waterfall-kind tap for my small basin in the downstairs cloakroom. As you can imagine, when you turn it up to max it goes right to the edge of the basin and splashes you in an embarrassing area. The tap's instructions manual...

    LEDs and dimmers

    I am new to LEDs. Can you please explain if their non-dimmable behaviour is caused by the LED bulb or the transformer? I bought a cheap LED downlight and I tried it with my living room's dimmer and it doesn't dim down, just flashes when really low. After some more research I found that there...

    Thanks. I ordered a blackout blind for the recess, and if that will be to ugly I can always put courtains or blinds on the inside.

Does anybody know how do the wood blinds compare to blackout blinds, or if there is any other better option available (for a decent price) in terms of blocking...

    How to finish wooden floor?

    I can't seem to find any "floor lacquer" products. Am I looking in the wrong place? I tried the big ones such as B&Q and homebase. Can you recommend any product that is easy to apply and good quality?

    How to finish wooden floor?

    Thank you. Oil! I new I forgot one on my list. So does the lacquer provide both protection and colour? Do I need any primer or just several layers of lacquer?

    How to finish wooden floor?

    This is a daft question, but please bear with me: I am a beginner. I've got a (very) old wooden floor. It is a soft wood, with a dark finish on top. I intend to replace some broken/loose/missing boards and then sand the floor. So far so good. Now, what do I do afterwards? I am a confused...

    Cheapest chain store selling electrics

    well, I will probably need lots of cable for a new ring, quite a few sockets, a new consumer unit, fuses, junction boxes, downlights, a heat alarm ... and who knows what else, so I think it will be a big shop so if one store is cheaper I could save a few bobs. I've heard that Screwfix would be...

    Cheapest chain store selling electrics

    I've done a deal with my electrician to do the work on a fixed fee and I supply all the materials. Now I am wondering what is the cheapest mainstream electrical store? I am asking about chain stores because that should cover a larger audience but if anyone knows a better local choice near...
