Well yes, but the skip is already overflowing now and just wondering if I could leave it to dry for a bit so I don't have to

Ok, so is waiting for it to dry a viable option or does it 100% need to come up?

Afternoon All, I've just dug up part of the grass area in our garden to extend the paving that I laid a few years back. I had pools of water lying which I have directed into a ditch which drained away relatively quickly, but im still left with some tiny wet spots and quite sloppy and wet...

Thanks Woody. So you think they will dry out and be unnoticeable eventually? Any idea behind why they appear to be constantly wet looking when the outer edges of the slab and all other existing slabs seem to dry quite quickly on a dry day?

Hi all, Ive had some concrete paving slabs delivered ready for laying next month but im not sure if they are knackered....can slabs even be faulty? They have been on a pallet for however long and I took them all off last week to get them round into the garden, but I have noticed that they all...

Don't worry, sorted it!

Hi All, At the moment, our bathroom door is just like all the other doors with a single barrel latch. I want to put a locking one on and was just wondering if there are any tips when it comes to installing to make sure the existing holes can be reused and extended downwards to fit the new piece?

Hi All, I've got something similar to this in my kitchen to cover some pipes https://www.diy.com/departments/plumbsure-upvc-double-pipe-clip-t682v3-dia-15mm/184675_BQ.prd?rrec=true As im sure is a common issue, the cover has warped slightly with the heat of the pipes and it isnt staying on the...

Morning All, Just a quick one, I have noticed that the ridge area at the top of the conservatory is allowing a breeze through. Is this normal? I'm thinking about sealing it up in the hope that it makes it less cold in the winter. I have had a look into whether a conservatory should be...

Excellent, thank you!

Hi all, Our current landing banister has 3 thick horizontal lengths and im looking to change it to some spindles. The posts at each end are offset and noticed when looking at some images that this is quite common. Ive added a picture below, is the handrail with the 90 degree angle to meet the...

We have a 5m x 4m conservatory, glass roof, glazed across front and down 1 side, the other side is brick. Not been quoted yet but for something this size im guessing you wont get much change from 7k-8k to convert to a tiled roof with a couple of windows in, so just trying to work out if its...

Thanks for the response. In that case I think ill give it a miss until they ever need replacing :)

Hi all, Im in the process of cleaning up and re-sealing around our window frames internally and I want to change our window gaskets too as they have discoloured over the years and want some fresh white ones going in. Only problem is they are proving difficult to budge so im a bit worried that...

Power the camera from alarm panel wiring, it only needs to be 8-24v

Morning all, im looking to fit one of these camera doorbells and although they can be battery powered, id prefer to wire it up if possible. Right behind the wall where the doorbell would go is a little cloakroom cupboard and inside there is my alarm panel (Veritas Excel). I was wondering if...

At least if they drop it and it smashes the conservatory below, they are the right men to have around!

Ok, so you think they'll have to fit from outside on this one? The window is above the conservatory so will be an interesting one for them!

Ok great, ill leave the work to the pro's, just wanted to see if it was possible without having to knock all the tiles off first
