    Strange skirting board

    Which side are you referring to? The side in the bottom photo has quite a different consistency to the top two. Even on that side there are some differences In some areas it has quite a stoney dark consistency and then that stops and there's more of a pink plastery stuff underneath

    Strange skirting board

    Not sure if this is the right category but I'm redecorating a room where there is some kind of "skirting" which isn't actual skirting board. On one wall it's a kind of plastery consistency attached to lath... On one wall it looks almost as if the "skirting" is just part of the wall. What is...

    Crumbling plaster behind banister

    I want to fix this bit of wall but it's going to be hard to get behind the banister. The banister is pretty horrible and will probably be getting replaced eventually but the wall is more of a priority. Is there a neat way to temporarily dismantle the banister to work on the wall or would it be...

    Get frame off one paint roller onto another

    I'll see what my friends at SF can do. So what purpose do those handles with just the rod part serve if all sleeves need a frame to slide onto?

    Get frame off one paint roller onto another

    The problem is the handle shown is a specific size and has a hole that the extension clips into to hold the handle in place.

    Get frame off one paint roller onto another

    The roller on the right attaches to an extendable pole to reach further, but it doesn't have a frame for the sleeves to go on. I tried getting the frame off the one on the left but it's held on by something. Is there a way to get these things off and secure them onto another roller handle? If...

    Cutting kitchen carcase to accommodate corner sink

    The worktop has been delivered with a pre-cut piece which goes around the corner, so the sink won't be resting over any joins

    Cutting kitchen carcase to accommodate corner sink

    They said If the base rail needs to be adjusted, it is advised to do so. You are able to install support battens to support the unit should you wish but the unit does need modification to install the sink. The unit we have planned is designed to house this sink, and based on the information...

    Cutting kitchen carcase to accommodate corner sink

    I am fitting it myself, not Wren. Saying "Wren, nuff said" is not at all constructive. Name any major kitchen company and someone will have an anecdotal quip about them.

    Cutting kitchen carcase to accommodate corner sink

    Wren have confirmed this is the correct unit and they expect the fitter to cut through the base rail to accommodate the sink

    Cutting kitchen carcase to accommodate corner sink

    I have been provided with a corner sink which needs to fit onto a corner unit carcase which has a long beam in the middle. It looks like I will have to cut across the entire width of the right hand rail panel. It seems like this would be likely to affect the structural strength of the carcase...
