Beezer. We are in discussions with the CPO as out local police force as they do a scheme were if you have a forced entry then they come and upgrade your door/window security for free. For me this will mean 8 sets of the new stronger door handles, 8 snap-off security locks, 12 sash jammers for...

Wow, didn't think a simple question could result in such comments! Just to clarify I would not expect a neighbour to go around but they could contact the police and raise the alarm. When you say the police would not be interested I would beg to differ on that point. The police we have...

Hi I want it to email as I work at a PC during the day and have a mobile pc with email. We have had 2 attempted break-ins recently which would have triggered the cameras, sent an email at which point I can login in to see if it is a false alarm and then do something about it if not, ring...

Hi I am looking at installing a CCTV system at home. I am looking at a 4ch DVR DVR Link bu am getting differing information depending who I talk to. A couple of suppliers say it can email you if motion is detected, other say not. The tech sheet says it can but another supplier this is not...

Thanks for you help. So is it a central heating engineer I need to do the work? Simond - you say on a pumped system, do you mean pumped hot water? I thought on the megaflo the hot water if pressurised using the mains cold water feed. The controller we have has toggle switch on the...

Hi Our current central heating controller allows us to have either water or water/heating but not independant of each other. I want to change this to one that allows water and heating to be controlled independently of each other. Our current system has a Danfos controller, a Megaflow...

Thanks for the response. So is it a new valve to sort out? Is there anyway of testing that this is the cause before buying a new valve? Cheers

Hi We have recently moved into a new house that has a large Heat Store hot water tank. Whilst we love it with the mains pressure hot water we have an annoying problem I hope someone can help me with. The system all works fine and is approx 3 years old. When the tank is full of hot water...

Hi I did a similar thing in the last house. Can i ask where you got the touch screen from, what make is it? Cheers Robert

Thanks for the info. Emailed Formica and they say it comes in different lengths but only in 1.2m widths. I want it for a retro style dining table which is 1.8m diameter so no good as a join would look terrible. Back to the drawing board me thinks! Dux

We had a conservatory fitted to our last house in 2004 and had the doors removed between it and the house. We asked the local BCO and they basically said don't tell us and if it's an issue when you come to sell the house then put doors on. We moved 4 months ago and even though the buyers...

Cheers for that, formica is the stuff I was thinking of... Typical, no prices on their website. Any idea of prices and sizes Formica is available in? Cheers

Hi I have seen on New Yankee Workshop 'Norm' using a material which is like veneer but comes in large plastic sheets which is glued to the surface of say a table to give a smooth joint free surface. I guess it is like a thicker version of whats on kitchen cabinets. Anyone know what it's...

Thanks for that. The window is to match in with the rest of the house and I was lucky enough to get it off E-bay as a brand new miss-measure for less than £40, this included glass and it still has all the protective plastic on it. Cheers

Hi I am going to fit a UPVC window in a single skin garage wall. Do I need to place a damp proof course either below or above the window opening? Cheers Rob

Don't know much about them but we had a glass roofed conservatory in oak colour fitted 4 years ago and it has never made a noise, regardless of heat, since fitting. Rob

Hi all I looking at installing a window in the side of our garage and have been trying to find a supplier of UPVC Windows in the West Yorkshrie area. I have tried loads of companies but they all want to fit the thing aswell. Anyone know of a reliable supplier either in the W Yorks area or...

Thanks for your help. Looks like a trip to the local builders yard at the weekend!! Cheers Robert

Hi Thanks for the reply. The only thing i am worried about with a conrete lintel is that it will show on the outside due to being a single skin. The garage is made of buff marshalite stone so a grey lintel will look out of place. I was hoping to use one of the angled metal versions so it...
