Hi, We had run out of oil. Noticed in a few hours and turned boiler off. After oil delivery, water heats up but heating rads do not. Previously had similar problem and a photo cell was not detecting oil. It was a 10 min job by our plumber and cost £60. Could it be the same this time? We have...

Lol, having done a previous new house thought it would be no prob! But theres pipes everywhere here, its an old house 1850 with a new bit added on. We were about to do when found out bath taps not coming from where we thought. Think we giving up today now and calling plumber out. Many thanks for...

Sorry Rob just to check, we need to close blue valve on tank as just closing mains will still drain tank? And if red valve doesnt turn off fully what then? I think we will need a plumber as although we are nearly there with this, just found the corner bath has two pipes - hot and cold coming 6...

Yes hot and cold. Have no isolation valves but will be putting them in. Wasnt sure if pipes needed to be a certain temp, its only 4 deg here max today. Also thinking of boiler as well. If tank is drained would need to turn heating off? No heating not a problem whilst doing but would it create...

Thanks. To take out bath toilet and sink.

Hi, We are looking to change our ensuite asap, however its very cold outside at moment. As system needs draining can it be done now or do we need to wait till its warmer? What is lowest temp this can be done? Many thanks

Hi, it was water based Zinnser. I've now used shellac formula. That has covered thank goodness, but although I've put another coat of floor paint, I've now got darker patches from where it's covered stains, and lighter ,spatchier on rest of concrete. Hmm! Do I now cover whole of floor with...

I don't know, would that stop it? Thought they were same formula, just different clean up methods. Is there anything else? Thank you
