    Decent HDMI cable.

    Don't know how I'd check those. All I know is the TV picture is fine when the HDMI cable isn't alongside them

    Decent HDMI cable.

    TV is on the wall. TV power cable, internet cable and hdmi cable are run in 50 mm D-line trunking for approx 3 foot. TV picture pixellates.

    MDF Plinth question

    Thanks for the quick replies. @Wayners. I've seen the plastic floor trim you mention. Could still see moisture getting inside that stuff. Might do both methods as a belt and braces approach. Thanks again.

    MDF Plinth question

    Just removed the plinths from a recently fitted kitchen. Under the shiny plastic exterior, they're MDF construction. They've been cut on one edge to suit the uneven floor. What's the best way of treating them to prevent damage from moisture ingress? TIA

    Should I be worried? "Sockitz" plastic guards.

    Aye, they're the reusable type. Fitted them when I removed all the tiles. Thought I'd be doing the plasterer a favour. Seems like I wasted my time. Not to worry. Everybody has a different way of doing things. As said above, maybe it's a solution looking for a problem.

    Should I be worried? "Sockitz" plastic guards.

    B&M Laminate

    Anyone have any experience with the laminate flooring sold in B&M? Is it any good, or is it best avoided. Not needing a lot as it's for a conservatory. Willing to pay a bit extra for decent brand if necessary. TIA

    Quick question

    Yeah, painting it white. I had a 10 litre tub of matt white the other day. It's now mysteriously gone missing. I'm just wanting to get one coat on it all as a bit protection cos I'm going to be busy for the next few weeks and didn't fancy leaving it bare. Cheers for your reply.

    Can I use Leyland Trade Super Leytex High Opacity Matt emulsion as a first coat on lining paper or is it just suitable for new and bare plaster? TIA

    Armstead Quick Dry Satin

    So, I decided to go with Dulux Trade Quick Dry Satinwood. Bad idea. Should have paid the extra and stuck with the Armstead. Ah well. Every day is a school day.

    Armstead Quick Dry Satin

    Screwfix have stopped selling it and Dulux Decorator centre wants stupid money for a 2.5 ltr tin. Can anyone suggest a similar, decent replacement that won't require a bank loan to purchase? TIA.

    Advice needed.

    Yeah. I'll duct tape paint brushes to their phones. Found an old post on here that advised sanding prior to applying Bin 123. Knew I wouldn't have sanded if I didn't have to.

    Advice needed.

    Hi johnny2007 That was the plan due to the presence of kids. Have to give them notice to vacate their rooms when planning any work but usually end up turning a hosepipe on them. I'm replacing hinges as well so doors need to come off.
