Hi All, have put 1700 grade lining paper up in my living room, dining room, landing and stair way, and now need to paint. What's the best way to cut in against the ceiling, skirting and edges? I'm going to roller the main part and didn't want to have a noticeable change in pattern from a...

I am unsure after reading a fair bit, what temperature to set the heating to on my boiler. At the moment the temperature is between 50 and 60. It has taken roughly 1.5 hours to raise the temperature in the house about 3c. If the water is 70c or above it takes about an hour to raise the temp 3c...
