Wow. Firstly, when did I complain? I thought I was being quite polite and being understanding to the advice given. I was simply talking the cost difference between renewing the decking and porch rather than pulling the whole thing down and building a new (at which time, no mention of not using...

yes, totally get that and I did think it. but guessing the cost of timber to replace entire decking, base frame and couple of posts would roughly be £100-£200 as decking area is actually quite small. Cost to get someone to demolish the entire shed would be few to several hundreds? (if not over...

I know it looks bad but is it not rescuable? I am looking to replace all decking, middle two posts and probably beef up or replace where needed the base frame. I just didnt know best way to jack up the roof.

sorry to bump, but was hoping to get materials this week and get it done for the weekend. could you expand on how to set up and fix the inverted L support please? would seem unstable if not fixed to base and roof?

Yes, it's sagging as the centre-right post is completely rotted and doesn't actually bear weight!!

Just to be clear, is that two timbers (c16 ok?) joined by a bracket. And the screwed to the underside of the roof? Should I screw the bottom to the base frame to be safe?

Thanks, do you mean something like this?

Hi all, Looking to replace rotten decking and posts which support a porch roof of my shed. I was wondering what the best approach in doing so and if it's possible to decking whilst temporarily supporting the roof. Please note the posts in the middle are not that supportive and one provides...

Thanks. By profile you mean cutting a small angled section off the wall profile? I would need to do that to the screen profile(metal hinge section) as well I presume. Just seems a little risky to do that. Yeah, I gathered the smaller screw is for the attach the hinge to the channel and my...

It's this one: https://nuie.co.uk/baths/l-shaped-abstract-bath-screen-with-fixed-return/ (Step 5 of manual)

Thank you. ONe I dismantled before had 3 screws. But this one's only got two which is a little worrying especially the screws is like 10mm long. The manual says not to drill the face of the screen profile. Does that mean I should just drill the wall profile and then screw through the screen...

Also, might now be a while before I can install it. Manual says drill a hole in the wall profile approx 100mm from the top and bottom. However, just noticed the wall profiles already got holes drilled but at about 34mm from the top and bottom. Have contacted seller and manufacturer. Also, the...

Sorry, just reread my post and grammar was horrendous. I meant if I was to cut a notch. Then silicone around the notch whilst I put the profile in. Some of it will naturally seal the inside of the screen at that part. I guess I just be careful and try my best to wipe away silicone so it...

Thanks I'm hoping thats the case too. The only other is is. Manual says not to silicone inside of the screen. But having the nitch and resiliconing up to would mean I am? I understand not siliconing the inside is so water can escape when water inevitably gets inside the profile. So should I...

Hi all, I've siliconed the bath tiles and bath edge already. Decided to go with a shower screen now and to install the wall profile bracket so it can be flush to the wall, is it best to: A) cut the silicone at the point where screen will go and remove all(as much of) the silicone and...

Sorry guys. Still can time it so when it happens, I got enough time to get into the loft to check the ballcock. But I did work out that it is this pipe which vibrates. Does this help indicate anything further or still try and get into to loft and check the ballcock first?

Sorry guys, noise hasn't happened for me yet. Annoyingly happened for my partner but wasn't around to test. Just to double check, ballcock we are talking about is this one (photo) which feeds the cylinder? Forgot to mention, this was actually replaced so it's brand new as the old one had a...

bathroom basin and kitchen. both monobloc mixers. bath filler is quarter turn but seperate feeds (not mono). you mean slow filling of the cylinder I presume? only way to tell is listening? the ballcock valve from header tank to cylinder seems to work fine in terms of isolating

how do i tell if it needs replacing?

hi all, (this doesnt happen every time so cannot reproduce it but does happen about few times a week but must be a reason I can't work out) 'Sometimes', after turning the shower on and after about 10 seconds, the pipes make a loud foghorn type sound and the cold water pipes around the house...
