yes thats a good idea .When i said nails i meant those cable clips, but a staple gun probably makes more sense

I dont mind that odd bit of surface damage but wondered what to use .Would small nails do the job?

rather thicker than bell wire but nowhere near as thick as Choseal .Its available from Wickes http://www.wickes.co.uk/Speaker-Flex-13-0-2-mm2-x-7-5m/p/710455

i want to run pair of speaker cable either side of some patio doors and then onto a solid wall and was wondering how best to do that,I thought of using self adhesive D line trunking but was led to believe that it can come unstuck. Would that be right ?

ok i'll have a look although i am not entirely sure why you mean by crest and finials .yes the installer did you use expanding foam when complied about the dripping.Ill have to look at the booklet that came with it because i am not all, sure what you mean by "all box gutter" or "the bars on the...

one of my neighbours had that done to his house . My house is aligned differently to his in as much at the gables are facing sideways on rather than front and backwards in relation to the street.It looks very effective giving the house a New England look but i expect it was very expensive

that would be my last option if what has been suggested to me doesn't work,either that or cladding as Architexeter suggested sorry to take so long to reply

had a builder call round , who checked guttering and roof and found nothing wrong there .No water pipes running in the vecinity either.He thinks the problem I have is caused by driving rain going through the painted brickwork via defective pointing which need to be replaced .He also thinks the...

the pics I took are on this link but they don't really say much except there is tray more or less where the leak comes from but looking from the outside it does not appear to be full of water.That suggests to me the fitter was right when he said the drips were caused by condensation.We have had...

I am thinking of having a render system such as this on that one wall.Its not in an immediately visible side of the house so it wouldn't matter so much if it was at odds with the rest,I understand some renders can provide a "painted brick" finish anyway...

well yes its sitting on top of what is in effect the brick soldier lintel

yes it does face the prevailing wind /rain, but when we bought the house and there was no insulation the problem was evident then because we had water coming in and the plaster in the top part of the recess was literally hanging off.It was then that we decided to replace the trays

the tray and weep holes should cope with any water than falls on the trays but from what i can make out that doesn't seem to be happening , in which case the insulation beads could well have slumped and become saturated. The plaster in the window recess at the top and to the immediate right...

yes but the odd thing is that the worst affected window has no metal lintel over it ,rather an oak one and on the top right of it the paint seems to be peeling somewhat and its very damp .I guess the bridging could be caused by the insulation we had installed , something that we were required...
