its just the stuff that you brush inbetween the slabs and it solidifies - especially for patio slabs. it's really the tools to clean between the slabs that i was after really.

[/url] Thank you. I will take a look at this. I'm not looking for anything flash, just clean lines that don't collect dust LOL. The bath and sink have ridges and are a dust haven... what with all the dust from DIY flying around it is constantly filthy and I haven't even started the...

Hi all, Sorry I am completely new to anything garden related so apologies in advance. I have a small patio area in the garden which is looking a little unloved. Today I gave it a preliminary scrub using washing powder and water and it hasn't come out too bad. At some stage I need to...

It is bugging me because the taps are about a hundred years old and the shower unit is leaking and covered in black mould. How much do you reckon I would be looking at for just replacing the small fixtures...

Moved here a couple of months ago and have a pile of DIY to do, so slowly going through trying to make my mark. Had my new boiler fitted and next on my ideal list was a new bathroom. Unfortunately due to the neverending list of things to do and things to buy, finances are now starting to...

Hmm sounds like I am going to have to be creative making something that can be removed yet looks like it can't lol

OK, just had my combi installed, woo hoo!! Basically now I have a cupboard and piece of work surface to fit where the old boiler was below. The boiler obviously has a lot of visible copper pipes and I was just wondering what people actually do with them? Do you box them in or leave...

Yes that's what I was hoping to avoid. I was under the impression that none of the pipes in there would be working so I could create a more permanent fixture :shock:

I was under the impression that the cupboard would be cleared as much as possible for the purpose of making it into a cupboard. Any ideas on how about to convert it without disrupting pipework?

This is the cupboard so far. They are back tomorrow so not sure if this is the end product or if more pipes will be removed...

Sorry for boring everyone with my questions tonight. i'm replacing my water tank boiler with a combi. I was speaking with my dad and he doesn't think they have removed as many pipes as they can. Basically the water tank is in the bedroom and although the bottom tank has gone (still yet...

Thank you. Had a look at what has been done it is ok. I envisaged mass drilling but it doesn't look too bad!

My hoses are fine. It's a relatively new machine. I moved here only 2 months ago so this would have been visible with the move.

Nope nothing mentioned! This is completely unexpected.

Oh my I didn't even think about the washing machine! What can they do to stop this happening ?

I'm in the process of having a boiler changed from water tank to combi. They have finished for today and will install new boiler tomorrow BUT apparently the toilet is now flushing from the mains and it like it has a turbo boost. The flush is so powerful it sounds like it will take off...

Sorry let me explain a little better. I live in a flat. The current boiler is by kitchen back door on floor area. Water tank is in bedroom. I am having the water tank cupboard cleared and combi fitted. As a result I need to remove top kitchen cupboard so boiler can be mounted on wall. Also it's...

They are gas safe thank goodness. It was just the initial drilling. They've measured it and it is border line. Basically the flats like mine all practically have combi but it's right in the legal requirements I believe. Also just found out kitchen waste pipe runs through boiler cupboard in...

Hello all. I'm having a new boiler fitted. I currently have a water tank and having this removed and replaced with a combi-boiler. I just heard one of the boiler men say to the other that they have just clipped the window lintel - they are fitting an anti flume or whatever it is called...

Unfortunately I have the old pop corn ceilings where I am. Yesterday I painted it with a one coat matt ceiling and crack poly cell paint and today I have looked at the finish and the ceiling is literally shining. I have no experience in painting so I have no idea if this s normal or if I am...
