Tile first, then install units on the tiles.

You've not told us the dimensions on this area but reading between the lines I'd say it's absolutely fine to do as planned. If in doubt though - speak to your local planning dept and they'll advise you. Be sure to give them the dimensions though. :hehe:

The house is an extended bungalow and the original chimney pot is visible in the loft still. I want to fit a wood burner - how could I use the existing chimney? Would it have to be extended to roof level or just have the flue poking out and exiting the roof? Any thoughts?

A heating engineer told me that some systems are like this for years. The biggest worry is the build up of scale from all the fresh water being continually added if there's no obvious damp anywhere.

Sadly I can't fit a straight down or 'inside the tray' one as there's a slight protrusion, I guess a curved fascia would do this, if they're made.

Did that first thing :D Waiting to hear from them.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks for that - i'll see if they can help.

Anyone know of somewhere - I'm pretty sure i need a new valve in my shower and ideally I'd like one today, Thanks

Hi Having severe problems with a mixer shower - the valve seems to be allowing cold mains into the hot water circuit even when the combi is isolated. So far it's cost me 1500 quid to discover this as the heating engineer is currently in my kitchen fitting a brand new boiler that we now know...
