Nice one cheers. So no issues with 2 being joint into 1

Foolishly I only installed 1 "outlet" tile on the roof for a bathroom extract vent. I am not sure why i did this as i have 2 bathrooms! I have now come to install inline extract fans and am scratching my head. I cant seem to find an adaptor that will allow 2 flexies to connect to the 1 extract...

Hi, I am on with laying the chipboard sub floor for the UFH. The house front to back is approximately 16m which is broken by a blockwork wall approximately 8m from the back of the house. Is it ok to run the chipboard all the way through at the 1 door threshold (Giving a total run of 16m) or...

That is what I originally thought but got very co fused as to how the UFH controller links to the main wiring center

Ok so i will have 2 control systems 1) An S-Plan control center connected to the boiler and thermostat/programmer and 2 valves which calls for heat and controls the valves for the hot water and the upstairs radiators 2) UFH control center which is connected to the boiler and 1 valve. This...

So the two wont be connected to each other?

Please can someone help me out with this one. I have a boiler, cylinder, 3nr 2 port valves a thermostat/programmer and UFH downstairs'. I understand the basics of the S- Plan heating controls as below; Boiler, 2 port valves and thermostat/programmer (nest) are all connected to the wiring...

For the utility I had to block up the old garage side door, install new window, run M&E and line. Its turned out a nice size and we are currently using it as a temporary kitchen until the rest is finished.

Doors finally arrived. These have held up a lot of the build as they were soo delayed. We were close to changing the design as it was causing issues due to the weight of the glass but they eventually turned up as we wanted them and we are so glad we were able to stick with the original plans...

Roof has been finished and the roof light installed. We are very pleased with this. We used a firm called Cornich. You order on line to your dimensions and it is delivered a few weeks later flat packed ready for you to install. They came recommended and were far cheaper than other systems so win...

Now that we are moved back in I turned my attention to getting the electrics sorted. I have pulled all of the old wiring out as I have been going and rewired the house so that everything is new. basic lighting and power were temporarily connected to the old system but i was keen to get the new...

Bathrooms have been tiled and nearly finished. They are useable but still need vanity units to be installed 2nd toilet and shower screen but at least i can have a shower and it means we were able to move back in after 11 months (that was supposed to be 8 weeks).

Perfect thanks. A different question but on the same topic. What sort of gap should be left to the perimeter 5mm? 10mm?

These are the forgefast. Clear top and self drilling. Are 4's ok or 5's better?

Is there a preferred manufacturer of data cabinets or are they all the same and just get the best priced. I assume i will need a 6U or 9U. Got al the cables pulled through now so need to get a cabinet ordered to terminate them in.

Thanks for all the recommendations. Glad I went with Aico. Have only heard good things about them. Also the test switch is a great idea. All fired up last weekend and working fine.

Thanks everyone. If there is no reason to use specialist screws to fix the deck then i will just stick with the forgefast screws from toolstation. I have used these throughout the build and found them to be a happy medium of being better than the cheap multipacks but still cheap enough. They do...

I am due to start laying the deck on my ground floor joists. It's 22mm chipboard to be glued and screwed to the joists. Am I correct in thinking 60mm long screws are correct for this? If so are these the best <LINK> screws for the job? If not what are the best - I will need a couple of...

Got everything wired over the weekend. All heads wired and linked. Will be using the combine co heads rather than stand alone ones for the extra cost I thought sticking with the same brand heads everywhere was best especially. Got the identifier switch installed as suggested so hopefully it...
