Hi, I want to fit some more power points in my garage and was wondering if they need to be anything special. I currently have one point and cabling is housed in pvc pipework and the point itself seems to be heavy duty rather than similar to internal items. Does a higher spec need to be used...

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated.

Hi, I've had a new patio laid, which is only 3 months old and when O hosed it off the other day some of the pointing has crumbled and come away. Not impressed! Anyway, I wanted to know what the best mix of sand (sharp or soft) and cement would be to replace it? Pavers are Indian limestone...

Hi, I have a Honeywell radial dial thermostat inside my front door for the heating and wanted to replace it with one with a digital display. It has 4 wires running to it, earth, live, neutral and one extra, which I'm not sure of. I bought a DT200 from Screwfix to replace it but it only has a...

Hi, I have installed a set of LED lights in my upstairs hall (5) to replace the single light. They work great on a narrow area like that. The lights are on a two-way switch and they glow slightly when the switches are orientated with downstairs on and upstairs off. When I switch upstairs on...

Further to the problems I was having: I've checked and the system isn't losing any water. The boiler is still shutting itself off every day while I'm at work. It was fine all summer without the heating being used. On investigation when the pump starts up the slave radiator in the lounge...

I'm a little confused over what is a chipboard floor. Do you mean the course compressed wood fibre flooring or the greenish waterproof stuff that looks a bit like cork?

The tank in the loft is full. Engineer left cover and insulation off though. I'll take advice and drain some water from the system and see if it refills correctly. I have since re-bled all radiators and some still had a bit of air in them. I'll continue to do this and see if it helps. The...

Hi, I just joined this forum and have searched for other posts that may help but I'm still not sure what exactly is the problem. Firstly I noticed the boiler wasn't on (no hot water). I got an engineer to come out and take a look at it. He serviced it (I service it once a year) and found that...
