Hi Wondering if any is able to advise me on this please?

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?

Also would this adhesive be OK to use?

Hi I'm in the process of deciding Wetherby to tile or lino my bathroom floor and need some help in deciding. Currently I have 22mm tongue and groove floor boards screwdriver into the joist. Each board is about 100mm wide I think. Do I still need to ply board the area and if so what size...

Yes that's what I meant sorry. OK I'll pop in the shop and ask them. Hopefully they do

Hi What lengths do the flexible compression pipes come in. I need to connect a toilet to the feed and the flexible pipe I have is 300mm which is a bit long. Can I get anything smaller? I had a look on screwfix site but couldn't find anything...

Yes I totally get that and apply plenty caution when attempting anything new especially electrics. I'm definitely willing to learn...

Just want to say a massive thank you to all of you. I will hopefully be reading through this tonight but will maybe attempt to fit over the weekend or maybe next. I'm fairly competent and can normally turn my hand to many things but just need some guidance along the way when attempting...

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm open to consideration. It's probably best to have it connected with the light as this would prevent it being left on unnecessarily when some one forgot to turn it off. I definitely have a black a red at the light. Why would there be no neutral anyway?

Thanks Newboy, Re configured the pipes yesterday which was a bit of a pain but hopefully it'll be worth it. I stuck a collar joint with pre built boss connections on the vertical soil ( which is connected to the toilet) and replaced the horizontal with a new bit of pipe to get rid of the...

Thanks Newboy, I really appreciate your advice here. I'm stumped now not sure best way foward. I definitely don't want leaks and wouldn't want any blockages either which you say the flexi may cause. Given the illustration above what would you say is the best way forward? Please bare in mind...

Hi Are flexible waste pipes any good. To overcome the problem I face I'm thinking of using one of these extending off the boss using a flexi waste pipe and then the plastic tube extended off that to the bath and sink. The boss connection for some reason became loose and developed a leak and...

Thanks Newboy, Other option I have I suppose is to put a T on the horizontal and connect a vertical length of soil pipe and connect this boss to that. Of course would cap the top off. How's that sound?

Hi, has anyone used this type of connection, instead of the strap boss. Would this be a better option?

This is one I have fitting. It's come away from the pipe. When I get to it tomorrow I'll take a pic

Hi I've attached a picture and hope you guys can help me. I have a bath waste pipe that's going through the floor board (ground floor) and connects into the soil pipe using a boss strap. Unfortunatley the connection has failed at the boss strap. Not sure what the best way would be to...

Hi Woody, Of course I would have access to the garden but only through the house where as at the moment I have a side access at the front that I can use.
