I've asked a company called "Kitchen Magic" (www.kitchen-magic.com) to come out to see me on Tuesday. They do refurbs but have a minimum order of £2k as they have to measure up and get specific items made. It may be a rip off, or it may be decent, not sure until they come I guess. I...

Not specifically. I did find the two I mentioned and they were cordless but I didn't have any preference.

I have the receipt so can still take it back. I bought it at the time thinking that "I will try it, see what it's like then maybe exchange". No big deal, could just refund or change. EDIT: however, it seems very fair according to a quick google search. I did this in store and all the...

Yea why?

Thanks for your advice, sounds very very useful! I think I will post a picture (probably tomorrow). The work top has NOTHING underneath, so nothing to fit. So I think I need to (in order): 1) get all the flooring up 2) get the work top cut down to size 3) get new flooring fitted...

Thanks Alan, I've measured my fridge and there is room if I got a 1000mm unit. I'm getting a quote from a kitchen refurb company just to see if that's worth it. I need to do loads in kitchen: Remove tiling using a heat gun as it's stuck down Get side cut down a bit Get new cupboard...

In the end I got this: http://www.wickes.co.uk/DeWalt-DWD024K-Percussion-Drill-Variable-Speed-650W-240V/p/114133 Used it and it's so much more powerful than my old drill - which really isn't a proper drill at all as it's terrible.

I'm probably one of the worlds worst DIYers. I can barely hang a curtain rail! My kitchen has a base unit missing, so basically I just have 1500mm space under the work top. I wanted to buy this: http://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Memphis-Base-Unit-1000mm/p/160838 I was then hoping to...

Bit of a lie as I already have a drill, however I think it's pretty rubbish. It barely goes through the wall, like the other day I wanted to just drill a bit into wall to add a wallplug and then a hook thing to hang things up. However, as it wasn't powerful enough it ended up taking a big...

What I think is ... It's tough luck. Charges are set by OFWAT I think so it's pay up... NO other option. The flat cost £133k. So incredibly cheap for the south East.

Me and GF live in 2 bedroom flat, all pretty standard. We had high water bills initially, so got a meter. After receiving a REALLY BIG bill, and having an 8 week dispute, it turned out the meter was on a SHARED pipe! So, now the water company have removed it, checked the property and...

ISSUE SOLVED Sorry for delay... 25th February: I confirm that neighbours water turns off as well as mine when I close outside stop cock 26th February: Called water company to tell them I thought meter was installed on the shared pipe. I took half day off work for this. 6th March...

Never bought one before, but really want recommendations on where to shop. I want something that'll last, so don't mind paying about £1000-£1500 or more, especially if there's interest free credit to take the strain off. Not sure what I want, i.e. 3 seats, and 2x1 seaters, so will look...

Thank you Bunnyman. I will definitely update the thread with what happens with the water engineer, the refund and hopefully the complaint. This is in order to potentially help others, but also because of everyone's time I've taken up. It's a huge help and without anyone on here, I...

Rang water company, they are sending an engineer out next Thursday. They tried giving me an appointment in 3 weeks time, but I complained about that as I've been waiting weeks as it is and just want it sorted.

The last reading I did was 24th Feb which was: 224.972 Sorry, but I'm not sure how to really convert that into anything useful though. In terms of the higher usage... At the time of the first meter I lived with a female housemate who would often go away for a week or days at a time, so it...
