    Looking for some advice here

    Hello I recently bought a property that had a number of roof issues. Only minor. They were: the gable end tiles coming loose over time so not straight. I think this was due to the tiles not having hooks in where the original roofer failed to line up tiles or the way in which they started. There...

    Integrated cistern?

    Hello I’m trying to source the same or similar cistern to the one shown below. Any suggestions? Apparently the buttons are typically smaller than what I have. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0668SfiwiTRUbMP__duuu2aew https://share.icloud.com/photos/0fbStCWA1RA6vZrrrBZWAp7Xg...

    Decking

    Hi I’ve contacted a builder in to fit a 3x4m deck area for my hot tub. He’s making progress but he said he ran out of brackets for one of the panels (the one next to the render) so stuck it down. Tonight I stood on it with a bit of pressure and it seems to be moving. Presumably it can be pulled...

    Should I cover the exposed krend?

    Here’s the latest on the decking and the k rend. The deck panel next to the wall was “no nailsed “ in and it seems a bit wobbly. Have asked the boulder to get brackets. https://share.icloud.com/photos/067mW_wPsEu5TEbSAzaB8nlQQ

    Toilet handle fitments

    Hi I’ve ordered a new similar handle to replace a broken handle and unfortunately the thickness of the new is wider. See below the universal chrome handle the replacement one and the original. The original is 17-18mm thick. Anyone know where I can source? Cheers...

    Should I cover the exposed krend?

    I believe the dpc goes below the render from what I can see. So there was grass here before and there was paving slabs between the grass and render before the builder removed and dug down for the concrete base he’s put in. It’s all outdoors. There’s no internal walls behind. I believe he has...

    Should I cover the exposed krend?

    I think the marks are mud. But need to wash it down. My concern is the exposed tender at the bottom (weak?) and the gaps, and what could happen to it damage, weathering etc over time? So once the feeling is down you’d stuck gravel in the gaps?

    Got it. I think he said there will be a gap between the render and the decking and possibly filled with gravel..

    Cracks in brand new laid concrete

    Hi I’ve just had some 100mm concrete base laid for a hot tub (decking to go on top next week) and see there’s a few cracks showing. Not sure if top only, or all the way through. It was a hot day Friday c22-25deg and there wasn’t any cracks showing late last night. I see he used a membrane...

    Should I cover the exposed krend?

    Hello I’m having a concrete base and decking installed next to some existing krend on a wall. Just wondered if it should be covered up somehow? Cheers https://share.icloud.com/photos/022SZWJZVd4e-bFIAYFNBagww https://share.icloud.com/photos/0780iwqOPcHvq3vLI1m8BmgcQ

    Replancing Aube Thermostats with Smart ones?

    Hi I have around 4x Aube thermostats (formerly thermonet 132-f), of which two are faulty, we think. One fails to click when the temp goes up, and the other goes faint, then loses power. I've found something of similar size, see here...

    Toilet flush not working reliably

    So should this kit fit this toilet, specifically the siphon, as the underside of the cistern doesn’t appear to have space for the washers and nuts… https://share.icloud.com/photos/0e22Xb5XmfsfwDYVUJhpepIWg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09aaZQHnLRNusdaoQb2YqdGMg...
