    some floor sockets have no power, others in the room are, mains board all fuses are on

    I havent tbh, but made the assumption that as the others were working then it couldn't have been the MCB. The only reason i noticed was we have some phillips hue lights in these sockets and they have been off for a week, i assumed that the lights just needed connecting to the app again

    morning all, ive attached a really basic drawing of what i'm trying to explain. we had a extension done about 10 years ago, last night i realised that some of the floor sockets have no power, i checked the main fuse board and no fuses have tripped. There are still some sockets which...

    amtico flooring has lifted slightly. Can you DIY fix

    hi all, we have a few amtico tiles on the floor that have lifted, the floor has been down for about 12years , i havent messed with it yet but i get the feeling they will pop out at some stage, is it something i could do myself, buy some amitco glue lift and stick them down or replace...

    Shower mixer, the flow dial only turns a little bit.

    evening last time i posted about the wall hung toilet i got so many useful advice and actually fixed it. so we have this (AXOR) shower mixer, the top dial which is the flow only now turns about a quarter of a turn, so water isnt that strong. there is a grub screw underneath which i didnt want...

    Wall hanging toilet not secure, can i fix this myself

    yeah used long reach and the angle is such it can just about get on the nut but even a movement to the left or right. I've ordered a Short stubby ratchet spanner and also re ordered the fischer fittings to see if they help. im now starting to think that the lower wall where the bottom of...

    Wall hanging toilet not secure, can i fix this myself

    I dont mind trying a few things to see if that work, my main issue is getting to the nut underneath undoing it and tightening up. Ive ordered the one off amazon i can always send that back to them as they are pretty good for things like that. I have the sleeve and the metal washer ...

    Wall hanging toilet not secure, can i fix this myself

    great, the idea of the allen key screw is much better idea than these bolts where there is next to no room to get a tool in there. probably a silly question but how do i know that bolts in my frame are the same size for that fitting

    Wall hanging toilet not secure, can i fix this myself

    other than that plastic cover over the rubber sleeve there isnt anything else to protect the toilet from cracking but that mustbe enough. I wonder if what you have in that picture would work as the hole in the toilet which the bolt passes through is quite a bit bigger than the bolt

    Wall hanging toilet not secure, can i fix this myself

    sadly we dont know the maker of the frame, its generic we believe. I will have a look at larger washers.. Do you think if it went for a large nylon type washer for where the nut meets the toilet porcelain would be OK?

    Wall hanging toilet not secure, can i fix this myself

    well I got the toilet off, thanks to everyone so far. Ended up using this type of tool but on its own no bar or anything as there wasnt the room. So its off, ive taken some pictures of the washers, what are these things called to search for, we dont know the make/brand of toilet to check.
