Cheers everyone, ended up with a Duravit resin tray. Seems well made but fitting it is going to be a challenge.

I'm sorry, didn't mean to exclude any input. I'll check out the model of tray, thanks.

I don't have TV anymore, or even web ads, but for the many years I did, I often found that the brands who need to advertise are those that can't generate enough business by word of mouth. There are quality brands and there are poor quality brands, some are mixed, but generally not in my opinion...

Hello gents, Shower trays seem to be one of those items that aren't discussed too often. Without talking billionaires row or trays made from meteorites/diamonds, in a money no object scenario, what brand would you be looking at for a super premium shower tray that will last? So far Ive seen...

Afternoon, I'm hoping someone can offer some guidance. We have stripped out the bathroom in preparation for making it into a wet room, but the subfloor needs removing to access the pipework properly. We have also seen water damage to a partition wall bottom plate and the flooring itself, so...

It's not really to heat the room, just to keep the tiles warm/dry them out as its going to be a wet room. It also has intelligent controls so links with the rest of the smart home devices we have apparently, allowing pre-heating and so on. It does seem to have sensors in the floor. It's a...

Hello all, Looking at putting in underfloor heating in the en-suite. Electric heating is compatible with the uncoupling membrane, or at least is an option. It requires it's own circuit which means that unless I can repurpose an existing circuit, I'll need to get qualified person in to do it...

Can I just clarify, for the OP really, you're talking about when your main ply sheet (stock side) is down to 200mm width or so, that track saw use becomes difficult because of the need to have the rail fully supported, correct? If so, I agree, it needs to be planned around in the cut list or a...

Not a plumber or heating engineer but I do have a Nest and have fixed a few issues with my system over the past few years. What type of heating system do you have? It does sound like a zone valve. My system is S plan so I have two zone values, one for heating and one for hot water. My...

As Tigercubrider said, a track saw and a bench would make this relatively simple. At the top end, you have Festool and Mafell, circa £500-600. Below that there are a range of options from Makita and Bosch Blue and then brands like Scheppach and Erbauer. Blade wise, more teeth equals a finer...

120 is pretty aggressive and on an orbital could remove lots of material very quickly. It may not be necessary to re-treat but it depends on how much sanding was done. If it was sanded back from rough sawn, then I would re-treat, personally. If he does treat it again with the Silka stuff the...

Just an update to this. As the extraction ducting is all internal and sandwiched between two of our upper floors rather than in the loft, I decided to try and restrict presence of cold air by fitting a shuttered cowling externally. It seems to have done the trick when combined with allowing...

It replaced a Greenwood AXS100TR, which I think was just a bog standard unit.

Thanks John. I've got it set to 20 minute overrun and it does dry out it seems, so there is that at least. Theres only about 5cm of space above the top of the extractor fan exhaust so very little to play with. The option of replacing the ducting I think would be extremely invasive as the...

Hello chaps, Our old bathroom fan of 72m3/hr died a few days ago so I've replaced it with a Vent-Axia Silhouette 100T, which has an extraction rate marginally higher at 108m3/hr. The bathroom is in the middle of the house with no windows and no external walls. Unfortunately, the builders used...

I've got one or two tools made by CK, mainly for light electrical work. Always thought they were decent quality, if not the absolute best. Just picked up a pair of automatic wire strippers, model 95001. They feel rather cheap and it was a bit of a surprise. Slippery/shiny plastic grips, a...

Well I found it in the cupboard today and was going to recycle it, but what with lockdown and everything, I'm sure they are needed by someone, somewhere. I might pop a post under general if thats allowed.

Nothing, I have a propane regulator for patio gas which I cant use anymore, so wondered if someone wanted it. It's brand new in a box. Was bought as a spare a year ago or so.

I haven't seen a for sale section on the forum so I'm presuming this isn't allowed. Are we allowed to give items away if a person only pays for sensible postage and packing? Thanks

I went through a similar conundrum a couple of years ago. Depending on the terms of your policy, you may be required to notify your insurer if there is any damage to your property from specific sources, such as water, theft or fire, regardless of whether you wish to make a claim or not. It's...
