Thanks for that suggestion - I'll get some ordered! There's so many different products available I wouldn't have found that one myself. Cheers.

Hi all, I've been trying to make the most of being home all the time this last month (so sad the pubs are closed) and am giving my bathroom a bit of a tidy, replacing worn silicone and grout - things like that. There's an external corner, where the tiles have been mitred, the gap having...

Hi all, I've just had a gas safety certificate done on a buy-to-let and one of the advisory things is that the gas pipe should be earthed as it enters the property. I've had this property for a number of years, and this has never come up in previous inspections, so wondered if the regulations...

Hi Vinn, I'm 99% sure it's waxed. It's not a polyurethane finish, and it's worn off in a few places leaving bare wood, so I know it had some treatment. That said, I might just do a super-dry very, very weak vinegar solution on a patch to test it out. Provided it's not too acidic, it shouldn't...

We had a new boiler installed about six years ago in what we call our "loft". We call it a loft because it's under the eaves, only has a chipboard floor and is where we put our Xmas decorations and whatnot. Unlike a normal loft, it's access through a door, from a bedroom, so there's no hatch or...

Actually, just knowing the make and/or model would be a good start...

Hey guys, I'm looking for some advice as I'm very novice when it comes to plumbing - especially showers. I had a bathroom fitted, the shower having a concealed valve with separate on/off and temperature handles. I've no idea of the brand or anything, though, as we pretty much chose everything...
