Hi guys, Tiled my bathroom back last Novemer (2007) and notiuced today that the grout is going a green colour, the sort of green that copper goes. I use Bal epoxy grout as the tiles were about 4" square. The green grount is only appearing around the bar that holds the shower but runs the...

Hi guys, Looking to insulate my loft but there are a few downlight spotlights on my landing and in the bathroom. Obviously these lights give off quite alot of heat so I was concerned about laying loft insulation directly over the top of them. 1) Is it safe to lay the insulation over them...

Hi, I would not recommend streaming large video files over wireless, you will notice a large amout jerkyness and stuttering in the playback on your TV. Depending on what your current AV system supports I would suggest you use a Cat5 cable and maybe gigabit network cards / switch for vidoe...

Why is that?

Hi, Recently fitted a new bathroom and have removed my old electric shower in favor of the valve type so I now have a spare power cable sat up in the loft. Would it be Ok for me to extend this cable over to a bedroom and fit a double plug socket on the end? And also maybe use it to power an...

What do you hate the most? Having almost finished my bathroom and used both of the above I have to say, I HATE SILICONE - Give me Epoxy grout any day!

I had a similar problem when I moved into my new house. We got 12 (GU10) downlighters and they kept turning off after a few minutes. Our problem was that the dimmer switch was only rated at 600w (I think) and I had to replace it with a 1000w. This fixed my problem.

Hi, Thanks for getting back to me. The cables I can see (6 in total, two pairs of each) are coming through the bathroom celing and into the pull cord light switch. We have two downlighters in the bathroom celin, I looked in the loft and the two lights are connected together and and a...

I think you are right!!!

Coming out of the celing I have two cores of three cables. Both have G/Y - B - R and one of the Blacks does have a Red sleeving on it. So, the three wires which include the Black WITHOUT the Red sleeve needs to be changed, is that correct?
