Hi I have a flat roof currently on a small rear extention which now needs replacing. We are thinking to go with a pitched tiled roof because there's plenty height available for it. Question is should leave the existing felt and ply board on there and will this this be ok or should we rip it...

Hi I'm hanging a garage up amd over door up, and it's pretty damn heavy. What's the right bolts I should be using for to secure it in to the wall please? And length It's going into a brick wall I have the ones in the picture attached, will these suffice and do I need any plugs to go with...

Hi Woody, I'm not sure yet, just asking if it's viable at this stage

Thanks Freddie. Is this normal practice would you say or will it cause me any restrictions by using this method? I already have internal stairs going onto the loft and was planning to tackle the project like this, 1, install the rsj at the front and strength the rafters by bolting the...

Hi For a loft conversion with a dormer I'm contemplating to start soon, wondering if the following would be possible. I will need to install two RSJ'S, one in the front just above the existing joist and one rear and one at the ridge. They span approximately 6.5 meters in the length and will...

Hi Soemthing really wired is happening and I'm not sure what. I have 2 pipes going to the bath hot and cold. Both have isolation valve. The cold has a T going taking a pipe up the wall for the electric shower. Now the shower is not yet connected up and has a bit of pipe projecting out of...

Thanks once again guys. This is a great site an a excellent bunch of VERY helpful people. Many thanks. Really really appreciated!

I'll be sticking to tiles porcelain glazed. I would have put a couple holes through and screwed them the baton in, but it's very difficult to drill through

Hi Instead of screwing a baton (porcelain tiles) will silicon be strong enough? Making a bath panel frame and the bottom baton will prove a bit difficult. The two on the side will be screw in and the top one will be screwed into the side ones. Will that be strong enough?

Hi, I guess if I could use to connectors one (vertical) from the soil to up and the another horizontal from the pan to the connector horizontal I may just be ok hopefully. Do you know if the way I mentioned in my previous post is correct way of joining the two connectors?

Hi Can I use this to connecting the vertical flexi pan connecter coming through the floor? Is it as simple as connecting this to the pan horizontally then pushing it to the flexi or do I need some 110mm pipe connected to the end of this connector and then pushed into flexible pan connecter...

Thanks again Frank. My toilet cistern sits on the pan. So when cistern is right against the wall the pan needs to be too. I'm not sure if that could be altered? The problem I found with the rigid pan connecter was that I couldn't push the toilet tight back because because of the joist you see...

Hi Thanks all. I've attached some pictures. I think I may be ok. Thinking of pushing the flexi right back against the wall and tiling around as close as possible. And then try silicone to try and get a good seal. I doubt I would be able to pull the flexi to extend out to the pan outlet. So...

Hi new boy What is ffl is there any pic I can see online?

Hi Need some advise with fitting a toilet in. The soil pipe is coming up from the floor joist and was at a slight angle (leaning back). Therfore i introduced a flexi pipe which gives help to get a straight angle to plumb into the toilet. This allows me to push the toilet right up against...

OK great thanks you so much Vinn.

Sorry I don't have another picture at present. If you see the picture uploaded there's a bit of plywood showing. That's right by the door.

Hi Vinn Thanks for your reply. Yes I do hope to fit a threshold between the hallway and bathroom door. And can confirm the tiles are now fitted but am slightly unsure if the small piece right by the door (which I have not yet fitting) will be a issue in terms of staying secure. This is...

Hi I'm setting out the tiles and have a question regarding a small pieces just by the door. Will it be ok to tile this in with a narrow cut just by the door entry or should I pull all the tiles in and make a cut in a full piece and cut the others along the wall down too?
