Hi All, We have an octagonal concrete base around 4.5m in diameter left over from an above ground pool which I've recently taken down and it's not in the prettiest condition so we're looking for ideas that don't involve digging it up and getting rid of it, instead, covering it. We're thinking...

Hi All, Bought and just put up a Keter Darwin 4 x 4 plastic shed bought from Homebase as they had a deal on it. Installed on top of my block paved patio which is fairly level but the shed door isn't and I can't seem to understand how to shim it so it'll close smoothly. Can anyone offer some...

Thanks guys. I'll get those parts tomorrow. Shame Screwfix don't sell the valve though!

Yes. Can't see it!

Thanks but what goes on the copper pipe once I've cut it?

Hi All, I want to attach a flexible 1/2 inch hose to my 15mm copper pipe that feeds our toilet as the pipe needs to be cut down as it's too high. I've never used JG Speedfit fittings before and nor have I cut a pipe but cutting the pipe I can handle but I don't know what JG part I need as it...

I think, from doing a little research, that I'd need to fit a Cat Risk 5 backflow valve which isn't going to happen. I should also contact Amazon and all the other UK sellers of them in case they aren't aware. That includes B&Q who sell them too and make no mention of it on their website.

Thanks Chris for your input. Your advice is very much appreciated.

Oh...

Hi All, We've bought a bidet toilet seat which needs plumbing into the toilet cistern water supply. Currently this is all copper going to the right hand side of the toilet cistern (closed coupled toilet by the way). The water inlet to the seat is on the left side (it would be wouldn't it!!)...

No as there's too much of a slope on the blocks as some have also sunk a little too much.

Hi All, I need to create a 2.4m x 2.4m perimeter inside my block paved patio for a concrete slab to be poured to support a hot tub. I'll be removing the patio blocks along with the sand and using 600mm x 150mm x 50mm concrete edging around the perimeter and getting these level in readiness for...

Yes. We have a Dunelm not far from us. Didn't think of them. Thanks!

That looks great but I was hoping to pick up something tomorrow from Ikea or somewhere so I can fit them this weekend. Bloody freezing in our living room!

Yes, the frames are wooden and am perfectly happy to screw tracks to the top of them.

Hi All, We have a bay window with a door leading out to our garden. I want to install some curtains which I can get pre-made from Ikea but am unsure what track things I need. Could anyone advise please? I've attached a picif that helps. Many thanks Darren

Hi All, We have a small (2m x 1m) hallway porch which has some old carpet on top of floorboards (no underlay) and I want to lay some new carpet on top of this. Basically using the old carpet as an underlay. There's no carpet grippers apart from at the end of the run as it meets the inner...
