Thanks again John, I've made a hole and the ceiling is dripping wet around a half meter square, got a plumber coming this afternoon. Just one more question, will the ceiling need to be re boarded and skimmed or will it dry? Mark

Thanks for your reply John, yes I have an extractor fan at the other side of the kitchen window, just had a full new kitchen install hence the walls being skimmed. No sign of any damp in the bathroom as it's all tiled. I can't get under the boards in the bathroom as they are all tiled so...

Hi, Just had my kitchen skimmed, waited for the skim tto dry then applied the mist coat. Few days later I have noticed that the top of the wall looks like it has a stain, this has continued to get worse, the plaster is soaking. It's on a external cavity wall, any ideas what could be causing...

hi all, Looking to buy a 1930's semi, had a look in the loft and discovered the underside of the tiles have been covered in spray foam! Just after a bit of advice as to whether to walk away or not to worry about it. I've looked on the Internet etc and read differing opinions. Roof tiles...

Thanks Tony, Im not looking at fixing it myself, was just looking for some advice on what may be wrong & if its going to cost me a fortune to fix? or is it time for a new boiler. Cheers Mark

Hi Yes the flue had a plastic inner, it was exactly the same as the one the plummer replaced, it was original biasi part, the flue goes straight out of the wall from top of the boiler so I would say end of flue is approx meter from boiler ( same place as the one he replaced) Thanks Mark

hi All Well we have had a boiler repair man out and to be honest we are no further forward, he has replaced the flue with a new one, tried firing up the boiler, wouldnt fire, he said he could get the boiler to fire up with the front panel off? but as soon as he put it on again it turned...

HI I have just tried the boiler again ( sorry bengasman it was before i read your post) the boiler did exactly the same, fired up ( flame looks blue through the window) stayed on for 10 mins then went off again, i have switched it off at the wall, and will call someone. ( just been on the...
