A couple of questions for the wise if I may. My daughter is buying her first house and I went round to cast my critical eye on it today. I noticed the boiler flue was very much out of sorts and it started ringing alarm bells. As you can see from the pictures it looks like the...

Blimey, I bet that stuff ain't cheap. The roof is 25mm 5 wall polycarbonite. I have also fitted Polycool solar inserts which made a huge difference in the summer (when the sun was out)by lowering the temperature by at least 15 - 20degC . I am looking at this company to do something with...

I have my boiler condensate pipe pipe running down the side of my house into the drain. It crosses a 40mm waste pipe at 45Degrees. This 40mm pipe comes from the kitchen sink and it all looks unsightly and a bit heath robinson. My question is can I connect it into the 40mm kitchen sink waste...
