wavetrain hope i'm not the 1st troll ???? lol

look at pavingexpert.com it's a fantastic web site and tells you all about soakaways and lots of other things. good luck

I don't think i would waste money on seeding and feeding stuff. Because it's such a small area i would returf it. But don't buy turf from a diy store cause it's rubbish, you can get good turf for £3 per meter so it won't cost you much if you pick it up in the car and will look nice for longer...

Dear mr Donk please see my new post New gravel drive, does the loose gravel problem worry you? Any comments very welcome Thanks

My drive is 55m2 and has been dug out ready for sub base. I have a very limited budget so gravel is my choice. My question is i can't decide wether it's worth spending an extra £700 on the plastic rienforcement that holds the gravel together and stops it moving this is layed on 30mm sand and...

cheers John i was hoping you would say that cause i already used it !!! thanks again

Sorted got a new one for £36 from naylor myers builders supplies. Fitted ok just put some cement around joint hopefully cement will dry then i can put the drain pipe back. It looks lovely !!!!!! thanks to you all ................. :P

Quick question can i use the opened bag of cement which has been in my garage for 18 months, it's still totally dry and has been in a plastic bag and the few lumps in it crumble to powder when i squish them. Just asking cheers :roll:

thanks to everybody now ordered, don't know why i couldn't find it must of been using the wrong word !!! :oops: thanks again

I want to move my sky+ box to the other side of the room 10m but it will have to go above the floor around the skirting board cause i can't get under the floor. I need the twin coax cable ( sky +) extension cable, i know i can run two separate cables but it won't look nice, where can i get the...

i would drill a hole maybe 8mm all the way through the slab and use those big screws with a bolt head you can get them in different lengths. I used them to make a raised bed with sleepers they work very well and are much stronger than sealant, you don't want the slab falling off. good luck

Yes i got the gully out and it's only joined with a bit of sand and cement. It's a bit strange though cause it just sits on top of the pipe instead of inside it. Surely it would be better if it sat inside the drain to prevent it leaking. Anyway got it off and got a secondhand one but fitting it...

Thanks for all the replies it could be the lack of clips but as was said difficult to get to most pipe work think i might need a PRV. Thanks again i have a few things to think about now. cheers

I think Howdens have brochures for the public to look at there range of kitchens, but they should also have showrooms for people to look at. If they had showrooms i bet they would sell a hell of a lot more kitchens :lol:

My problem is the banging noise when something switches the water off immediately such as the washing machine. i know a pressure reducer might work but will then effect the lovely shower we have. Its hard to explain but someone told me that you can get like an inline rubber boot / spring valve...

i got my new kitchen from BQ and fitted it with a joiner friend, quite cheap and very happy with it, only a couple of damaged items which were replaced immediately :lol: good luck

sorry yes i thought you didn't want wood, my mistake :oops:

completely agree it MUST be relaid on a full morter bed. Don't let them repair it again it's a waste of time. Cowboys cut corners proffessionals do it right the first time :lol: good luck

i love how he just gets up and runs back as if nothing has happened and his mates laughing is classic :lol: :lol: :lol:
