    New Computer not loading Microsoft websites

    If the above doesn't work, you can also try resetting IE to 'factory defaults' by going to Tools > Options > Advanced > Reset Button. If this doesn't make a difference try pinging www.microsoft.com to see what happens. You will not get a ping response, but I got: Pinging...

    Hi All, We want to create wet room for our downstairs cloak room. We have already semi-prepared the room as you will see in the photos below. The screed has been taken up to reveal the concrete pad. There was a ceramic ‘Inlet Hopper’ like the one below where the waste from the basin and...

    Costs

    This is an all-in job (supply and fit) on the ground floor and easy access throughout. eh? Everyone seems to be suggesting that a Composite door is stronger than a standard UPVC door and also wood. It is low maintenance with a GRP 'outer' - will not need sanding/and coating in 2yrs. I would...

    Composite Doors

    yeah - the reason why I am asking is due to the cost of them. It seems that the uPVC composite doors are much cheaper than the GRP type. We had a local company quote about £1600 for a GRP white front door with a style glass in it and a standard uPVC backdoor (not composite) on the back...

    Just checked out the leveling of uneven floors wiki on here. I assume the other option is the fibre-reinforced screed. Checking the details of Uzin 175 product (as mentioned in the wiki), it states it can be used on wood-floor rather than just Ply as the F-Ball does...

    Fiberboard Underlay

    Hi, We have a friend that is willing to give us a surplus of fiberboard underlay that was from B&Q - the 6mm green stuff. We are just about to fit our engineer flooring and was wondering if this would be OK to use on a chipboard subfloor. If you do not recommend this, could you please...

    Bamboo Suppliers

    I have read a few guides on different types on bamboo which would result in in being less hard that advertised or the fact it has been cut too early and not matured - therefore still 'green' Have been refering to this guide...
