I mixed up some mortar yesterday and tried my best to make a base for a window board. Found out the middle of the wall has a low spot, so need to get that level later. I think it came out ok, once i bond and skim the walk hopefully it will be all come together.

Thanks, will give that a shot.

I've seen this product, do you think this would work. Could the pipes come up from the bottom and into cavity then out of this connector?

Thanks for the advice, I thought a new tap would be needed. I agree poor design when paired with this sink vanity unit.

Got this installed along with new bathroom last year. The tap is a nightmare, if the flow is slow it runs back on itself, soaking the vanity unit. Is it just this type if tap or can i adjust the angle to stop it flowing back?

I removed the window trim and sill during decorating, we had a major draft coming through. All around the window was just gaps, no proper insulation. So a lot of wall and sill just crumbled away. What is best method to fix? I expanded foam around the window with low expansion foam. Was...

We are replacing our radiator, we want the pipes to come out the wall and not floor. Can you run flexible pipe up into partition and have it come out behind the radiator for a clean pipe free look?

That was my plan but couldn't find my blade, OH probably tidied it away lol

I used a multi tool with square edge saw. It was a bit dull so that didn't help.

Multi meter continuity test.

I couldn't find it at first was ready to install the blank lol. But eventually found it to the left of the hole I had cut and plenty cable to play with. Just a wee tidy up round the edges and the OH with be happy. Cheers for all the advice.

Found the ring main. All is good.

Ok. So I've drawn a diagram of how I think/hope it's wired . I'm going to cut the hole for the socket half way between the switches in the kitchen on opposite wall at the bottom. Hopefully I will find the ring circuit and enough free cable to fit a new socket. If it doesn't work out at...

Living room light switch.

Thanks for all the information and help. Yeah I did wonder about that socket. The house was flooded 3 years ago and the full bottom floor got replaced. So I would have thought the whole place would have been fitted new but as I go to different areas I find shortcuts . Again thanks.

All downstairs socket are on same circuit breaker. It's a B32. So when you daisy chain from washing machine socket, you mean from the socket under cabinets that the WM is plugged into? Meaning the isolation switch would have to be on whenever we wanting to use the floor lamp.

Ok so had a look and the kitchen sockets are connected and also have their own feed. I checked below and can see cable feeding into the switch for washing machine that is connected to the isolation switch. There is also insulation in the cavity wall.

Thanks for info. Today I'm going check behind the socket in kitchen and see if I can drop a cable down through the cavity. I will also have a look at the bottom of wall as I would think the cable feeding the kitchen socket will feed in from the floor.

Hi. So the OH just bought a new floor lamp and has decided the best place for it is where there is no socket. Nearest socket is through the wall in kitchen. I was hoping I could possibly drop a cable down gap in stud wall for new socket. But I'm sure there is a noggin in the way.

.. Thanks but I have already installed the floor, I just need a suitable door bar to bridge the gap.
