yes I only have problems with the 2 outside lights. But a the rate bulbs are blowing its going to cost a fortune to keep replacing them.

We had the whole house rewired a few months ago including new fuse boxes. The electrician installed 2 outside lights with dusk till dawn sensors. Since installed we have gone through 5 bulbs, I keep finding that one of the bulbs has gone which has also tripped the switch in the fuse box. It...

I think I'll just turn down the valves then, by the time hotpoint come out and fix it I might aswell of bought a new one. Cheers Marvin

Its about 6 to 7 years old. Marvin

Hi, Since having my whole house replumbed the washing machine has started to leak, the whole water pressure has increased but that may be a red herring. As soon as I switch the machine on it starts to fill then after about 30 seconds water starts pouring out of the drawer. I've taken a...

thanks guys ! Marvin.

Where can I get hold of a new junction box ? Can they be picked up from somewhere like homebase or wickes ? Cheers Marvin.

Hi, I've moved into a house where everything is very very old, so i'm upgrading everything. I had it completely re-wired. Now the BT wire comes from outside into an old black junction box, I've managed to locate the exact same on on a telephones information site. Apparently the box is a...

Hi, I'm in the middle of redecorating the entire house and would like some ideas of what can be done with the stairs. Currently its an old fashioned white panelled wood all the way up. Underneath the stairs are white pannels and a cupboard. Basically I will replace the part above the...

I've just moved into my new house, an old lady lived there before and all hot taps are on the right, I was very confused at first as brushing your teeth with hot water is not too nice :) I'm having the bathroom replaced and the kitchen too so I'll get that sorted out soon. Marvin.

Hi, Thanks for the info, one of these tanks and a combi is going to take quite a bit of space unless I'm not understanding correctly. I think I'll have to go for the Vokera Linea Max in this case. Cheers. Marvin.

Hi, Do Vaillant do a similar model to the Vokera Linea Max ? It was suggested earlier in the post to have a combi and an UV cylinder tank, would this give the same performance ? Can't seem to find any info about these sort of combinations. Cheers. Marvin.

Hi, Thanks for the post diymaniac but I think i'm definitely looking at one with a large store. DP, I've been looking through previous posts and one in particular compared Vokera and Valliant as like comparing Fiat to a Ferrari. I dont know much about boilers but this comment does worry...

hi, Both solutions sound good, is there anywhere I can have a look at these things on the web ? I'd like to get an idea which of these will take most space and also to compare. Thanks again. Marvin

Hi, Thanks for the advice, I very much like the idea of the Vokera Linea Max. You mention the other boilers with a UV hot water cylinder, what exactly is this. Is the cylinder part of the boiler or is it in addition to it ? Thanks. Marvin.

Hi, We are in the process of some building work and I'm looking at replacing the really old boiler system to a new gas combi. The main reason is to save space. There are so many to choose from so I'd be grateful if you could recommend some to me or good makes at least, I want to get a good...

Hi, I'm having some work done, extension for a utility room and swapping my old conventional boiler for a combi. I've been reading through posts and understand that combi's can't do more than 1 thing at a time. To improve this would it not be possible to have 2 combi's installed, 1...
