I don't know if this is the right place but seeing as it's near the garden I thought it best to post here. Anyway, there is a pipe coming out of ground outside my house and I was told by one of the neighbours that the previous owners used to connect a garden hose to this and water the garden...

I just checked our user manual and it's a Worcester Greenstar 24i/28i Junior All the other rads are hot apart from the top one but now it's hot at the bottom and cold at the top. I've bled it and gas comes out but once that's finished, no water sprays out.

I had central heating put in January 2012 and I've noticed that one of the radiators is luke warm, not cold but definitely not as hot as the others. It started with 2 radiators (1 on the landing hall and the other in the loft conversion bedroom). I bled the landing radiator and smelly gas...

turned it off at the power mains. No water continued to run after the power had been turned off but once turning the power back on, water started to run again. I've looked at the fault finding in the manual and it suggest the PRD needed to be replaced and the on/off switch.

I have a Triton Jade 3 electric shower which is about 2.5 years old. This week i noticed cold water dripping out of the bottom of the unit while the shower was running but today while the shower was running, i couldn't turn it off.....pressing the on/off button did nothing. I had to turn the...

I am looking to insulate my 2nd bedroom which is a loft conversion. The house was originally built around 1850. I found that it should be a problem insulating between the ceiling and the roof but have since found out that there is no felt between the ceiling the roof and all there is tiles...

I live in an old house which the top bedroom is a loft conversion. I want to insulate for the winter and noticed that the insulation between the roof and the ceiling in rubbish. The ceiling is all cracked and looks horrible so i thought about ripping the old ceiling down, insulating and...

No I turned it off and opened the door, that's when loads of white smoke poured out with the smell of burning. I turned it on this morning and it all seems to work ok but i haven't put it on a cycle in case it'll do more damage than what's possibly done already

My missus has just been doing a spin cycle in our Neff washing machine and about 10 minutes in there was a loud bang. I ran out to the kitchen turned it off and looked inside the window. Couldn't see a thing becuase of the smoke. When i could i opened up the door and white smoke was...

I have tongue and groove panelling to form a cupboard under the stairs. I've just stripped off all the gloss to give me a natural wood finish but i still have white gloss in the grooves. What is the best way to get these annoying grooves rid of the gloss? Would it be best yo use a...

I've been looking online for replacements but need some advice wat to get so I can get an electrician to sort it out. I would feel safer knowing this was sorted as obviously buying our first house we don't go looking at things like this. I found this RCB. Would this be what I need to...

What do i need to replace and can you please tell me what i need to buy to replace it. Do i need to replace both fuse boxes and with what and what about the black box, what do i replace that with

What colour would the earth be becuase I can have a look inside in case the person who put the old switch tucked it up inside. The dimmer switch i replaced was a brass one which was old and the people we bought the house off lived here for 3 years. We're not using the light switch at the...

The brown wires went to the same as on the old switch. The blue one went to one and from from that went to the other so it is how the old switch was. And there were no earth wires when i changed the switch. We've only been in this house for a couple of months.

The fuse box in the top left is for the off-peak

Here is a photo of the bottom of the E7 power supply. If the 3 smaller wires are for each storage heater would it be possible to connect to the useless one to the mains power

Here are 2 images of the light switch and the ceiling light wiring. Is there something wrong with the wiring in the switch or is it the ceiling wiring (don't think it would be that but i haven't got a clue) The blue wire gets split into 2 and goes to the bit with the arrow and wavy line...
