Hi, I wonder if someone could help me please? I have no experience at this sort of thing but willing to do what I can to fix it. Washing machine stopped working and tripped the breaker. Wife swears blind that she didn't overfill it, but I have my doubts. :? Anyway, the door security...

Hi, Thanks for your replies. I only want to bring the floor up about 75mm so should I just be thinking about screeding with some mesh ? The floor that's there isn't all that bad, just cracked a little and rather uneven.

Hello, I'm struggling a bit here. I have a knackered out concrete floor and want to lay a nice thick layer of concrete on top of it as a new floor. The area however is 7 by 7m and there is no way, even in a dream I'll stand a chance of getting it level (and not even too sure about how...

Before I start ... yes I have read the 'BLOWN RENDER' post (well some/most of it anyway) but to be honest that just made me more confused. I am speaking about an internal wall that has had a touch of damp in the past (not to mention some movement). I'm planning to clean down the walls...

What happens to the waste when it's flushed ? I think not. They are definatley overflow pipes though yes ? When I changed mine there was still a smell after the new one was fitted. It was VERY old and I found that the smell was actually from the really old plumbers mate that I had...

Does anyone know of a brick adhesive that mixes from dual tubes in an oversized mastic gun? Apparently it ideal for sorting out cracked/seperated brickwork and I need some, but have no idea what it's called. All the building suppliers I have been to know of it, but do not know the name...

That'll do nicely ... thanks for the info.

A 25 foot tree has been the cause in the past and I imagine it's moved the base that the garage sits on. It's on council land however and I think people might get a bit annoyed if I get the chain saw on it. :) As it's a garage it doesn't have to be great and that's why I'm having a crack...

I have an old garage wall that has shown signs of movement (cracks in brickwork) over the past 20 or so years. I don't want to knock it down and rebuild, but I was wondering how I could strength it ? Is some sort of steel reinforcemnt available ? Kind Regards,

The valve seems fully open. Anyone got any other ideas ... or should I just stop grumbling and start running the bath now, for Sunday. :?

Shut the valve first right ? Hmmm .... didn't see any crap at all, but no filter to speak of either.

Hmmm ..... http://www.pagebloke.com/redorblue.jpg

Yep .... once it's on it's pretty much at full flow. :( I can open it up as much as I want after that .... makes no difference tho. Small washing up bowl (no std bucket sorry) in 5 mins 1ltr in 35 seconds So i'm getting less than 2ltr a min ... surely this can't be right ?

I've only been in my house about 4 months and it's been like it from the start (my first house and I foolishly didn't check). Cold water to the taps is at rocket speed, but to fill a std bucket from the hot, i'd say about 5 mins ... maybe more. I will confirm later.

Hi, I have an Ideal Isar combi (think it's a m30100), except it isn't all that ideal. The hot water runs very slowly and can take almost an hour to fill the bath. I understand that I cannot have any sort of pump attached?. What could it be/what can I do ? Cheers

The tank in the loft definatley is not in use and I have an Ideal Isar combi. Checking the emersion also, it appears empty/dead.

Agreed !

I just don’t have a clue. I've not been long in my first house and I'm finding things out as I go along, so please be gentle. I have a water tank in my loft, but it's completely empty of water, so I guess that I am being fed from the mains. Is this a good idea ? Should/could I...
