    Bathroom Ceiling Paint Not Sticking

    You will need to remove all the flaking paint, mist coat & repaint, I dont think you will find another way. Although ias you are only after a bodge, you might get away using a brush, hope they dont look up, distract them, drop something.

    Gas pipe touching electric oven

    As long as they are below the permitted temperature they have passed the test. If the cooker is at the upper end, then the opp should ensure if touching the gas it will be safe. We need a GAS person to tell us what is & isnt allowed.

    Gas pipe touching electric oven

    That is not true: The oven side & back will get hot. I dont know what the regs are re the gas pipe etc. BUT THE EXTERIOR WILL GET HOT, There is a limit on the outside temperature, but it was a long, long time ago I was in the domestic appliance development business.

    If you haven't already bought your new one, might be worth looking here. I did buy mine on line, no problems. Try a google search on 'towel rail with thermostat'.

    electric towel rail

    Its such low wattage it should be fine. Question: why do you not get one that includes a thermostat. I have 3 in my property. The one in the main bathroom is on most of the year, when the central heating comes on (which is a towel rail type radiator) the electric one will automatically turn off...

    New towel radiator

    I have 3 of these always on the low setting, very good. There are different types of t/stats I have 1 that is infinitely variable , the other 2 are pre-set with 4 options, I prefer these as there is an LED showing the level that is set.

    Damp on wall

    Builder delays - who is at fault?

    Im not a builder. Your builder is the "expert", he should know & advised you. But the issue is getting the job done, I doubt if you will get another builder before the original one can restart.
