Hi :) thanks for your reply. I have just uploaded a few pics to my profile, can you see them? Sorry for that bad quality, they were taken in a rush on my mobile. Oh, and ignore my make up brushes drying on the window sill :$

Hi guys, Hope you can help a clueless person out! :oops: The bathroom window in my partners house opens inwards but doesn't have a catch/latch fitted, so it is a pain trying to keep it open, because we need to stick something on the window sill to keep it slightly open, but not too much...

Hello, I really hope someone can offer some advice/suggestions here... I have a British Gas boiler fitted, it was installed a few months prior to us buying the house (it says so on the casing - 2004) but no manual was left for us. Anyway, we have never had any problems with it (besides the...

Yes I know....but I also have someone from our local authority's approved tradesman list coming round on Friday to quote, so I guess I can compare the two then? :D

Hi, Just a quick question - has anyone used the Myhammer website? I put an ad on there and have been quoted £80 for the job, do you think that this is reasonable? Many thanks.

Thank you for your very detailed reply! I would not actually be doing this myself, I will be looking for someone who can do the whole piece of work! :D

Hello, Hope this is the correct place for posting! Our bathroom has absolutely no ventilation (we have a window but it opens inwards and neighbours can see inside when we have it open) and as a result is full of mould all over the walls. We tried cleaning and wiping everywhere over with...

I bought this...

Lol what is so bad about Wickes? I just bought some flexible ceiling paint. Is it going to be rubbish? Okay re the gloss but I can get the trade Dulux or Crown from B & Q surely? Thanks for your reply :)

Hello, I have recently given my skirting and window frames a coat of Dulux Trade Undercoat in brilliant white and now need to gloss them, can anyone recommend which brand to use? I was hoping I could get away with something *whisper it*...cheaper now that I have used the good undercoat? Any...

So...I went to Screwfix on my home last night and bought these: http://www.screwfix.com/search.do;jsessionid=U3YH4G4DF1WZCCSTHZOCFFA?_dyncharset=UTF-8&fh_search=touch%20latch&searchbutton.x=0&searchbutton.y=0&searchbutton=submit&source=aw&cm_mmc=AffiliateWindow-_-DeepLink-_-Na-_-Na...

So I don't need new snappy hinges for these Screwfix ones to work?? :? They do swing freely, just sometimes they're a bit stiff to close where they stick a bit but like we said earlier, I can just plane a bit off in the problem area can't I? Thanks :D

Thank you, and thanks to everyone else who posted. I found these at Screwfix, £8.99 for a pack of 10!!! http://www.screwfix.com/search.do;jsessionid=U3YH4G4DF1WZCCSTHZOCFFA?_dyncharset=UTF-8&fh_search=touch+latch&searchbutton.x=0&searchbutton.y=0&searchbutton=submit Will they do the...

Are you referring to these? If so, will these work on big cupboards (not little kitchen cabinets)? http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/70134242

Thanks. Do you know if the Ikea ones will solve this problem? I.e. so I can take the handles off and they will press to open?

Sorry I thought they were called push catches, hence the topic title.

Okay thanks. And will the cupboards open when you push on the door? Oh and d'oh! I just assumed they were a web based retailer, turns out there is one a mile from my house :roll: :D

And £5 for delivery?? :shock:

Thank you, and thanks for the item number too. :D Sorry for being dumb but what do you mean by mount externally? They go on the inside, right? :?

Hello, Hope someone can help (as me = clueless :roll: ) Anyway, I have been advised to get some push catches for some hideous built in cupboards in my bedroom to minimise the fact that they are cupboards (as they are asymmetrical) but I don't really know which ones to choose, or how to...
