Hi, Can I have some advice please guys? We are having a new kitchen fitted with a built under electric oven and gas hob, sited against one of the kitchen walls. At the moment there is no cooker switch as we have a gas cooker. We have just had an electrician to look at the job and he asked if...

Sparkyspike, no idea why he has a preference for fire regulation downlighters. TBH I didn’t know about the ones with fire stopping rings and I’v eno idea which ones he intends to use. We have only approached him to see if he is free to do the job at the moment, we haven’t got around to actually...

Might give it a go taking them up then, but if they are really stuck fast will have to resign myself to leaving them put. Thanks guys for your help and opinions much appreciated :D

Can I please have your opinions on which manufacturer you prefer for condensing combis please? We have to replace an aged Baxi back boiler, we live in a bungalow and we have been recommended either a Worcester or Vailant boiler. Plumber says that Vailant have a new condensing combi which is...

Thanks everyone, you have helped a lot. I can see that even for those 'in the know' this is a dilemma and it makes me feel a lot better. Think that we will go for the two pipe system, like you say, there's no point investing in a new boiler and compromising this with old pipework. Obviously...
