Our wallpaper has 2 'match' symbols, a free match and a vertical match. I understand free match, not as certain on vertical match, and not sure how we can have both? https://flic.kr/p/2hQJuNz

I'm sure this has been asked thousands of times before, and I know it could be considered a 'bodge'. However we've just redecorated our kitchen and want to re-tile the splashbacks. Cant risk stripping the tiles as they are drylined and in danger of taking the plasterboard off. Can we tile over...

I have a Potterton Suprima 40 boiler controlled by a programmer which I can set HW and CH separately. Heating is also controlled by a Honeywell CM907 stat. Hot water and heating has been working fine for the last few weeks and even first thing this morning, but now heating has stopped working...

I'm trying to glue back on a glass crystal feature to a metal bed post. As both surfaces are non porous it severely limits my choices of grab adhesives, and the only one I can find is Gripfill Max but i'm struggling to find anywhere which sells it? Can anyone recommend anything which would do...

Hi. I have a relatively new bar mix type shower in our en-suite. Don't know the exact type (although should be able to find out) but I got it half price from Screwfix. I think around £60. It's been installed around a year and a half. This morning at round 6:10/6:15 I heard the shower start to...

Just laid some vinyl flooring and the people in the shop said two things: - make us you don't get water under it as it will blow - don't apply sealant to the edges as it traps moisture Surely dealing the edges will stop moisture entering? Also, there's one edge that I messed up...

Some of you may remember I had an issue with this last year. I got it working and it went the whole of last winter without any problems. Obviously during the summer I turned the termperature down low. Now, however, when the set temperature is above the room temp it calls for heat. However the...

Some of you may remeber but I recently replaced my Danfoss Randall RMT230 thermsotat with a Honeywell CM907 programmeable thermostat. I wired it up correctly (so i thought) but the other morning i noticed the radiators were hot, when only the hot water was on, the thermostat was only set at 5...

I just posted a question in another section but may be applicable in this section as well as an expert opinion on roofing would be very much appreciated. Thanks //www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=1825106#1825106

Our house has a is a typical two storey house, with a 'porch' on the front containing the entrance lobby and downstairs WC. These two rooms get VERY cold and i suspect the roof void is very badly insulated if at all. However there is no access hatch where i can check. I had planned on...

For those of you that recommended the Honeywell CM907 programmeable thermostat - THANKYOU VERY MUCH! What a decent bit of kit. Unlike my old one (the Timeguard), its accurate to half a degree and actually turns off when the air temperature falls below. However i do have a couple of questions...

Hi, i'm in need of some help with my room thermostat. I've recently posted on here about a Timeguard TRT035 programmeable thermostat. 'Picasso' helped me loads getting it set up properly but unfortunately I had to return it for a refund as it was so innacurate it wasn't turning on until at...

Hi, I havn't really posted on here much before but I use I reguarly use it for solutions, however i'm now struggling on specific information about my new Programmable Thermostat. We've got a Potterton Suprema 40 boiler (i think thats the name) with a Danfoss CP725 programmer, and up until...

About 6 months ago i fitted a new radiator in our lounge and took the supply from the radiator in the room above using 15mm copper pipes with and a 'T' junction. This worked fine. In a more recent project i had to slightly reposition the radiator above which involved a series of right angle...
