No it actually works normally once the programme has begun but it's when I try to select a program after turning it on at the mains it flickers between one program and the next. I've noticed that if I switch the machine on at the on off button select the program but then leave it 5 minutes wait...

I have googled online at prices for the programme selector switchthat lives behind the propgramme dial. I have seen prices around £10 - 15, do you think it is worth maybe replacing this first before a new board?

Hi thanks I've tried doing this but it remains exactly same. Its started over the past few months. It's ok when I press start and the program begins yet sometimes the program has changed by itself before I managed to press start and I need to cancel as it's doing the wrong program etc

I have a 5 year old beko washer WMB71422. A few months ago the display has been playing up whenever I select the "daily quick" wash and now even other wash programmes. The screen starts going "bananas" flipping To the next and previous wash programs. Is it worth fixing or could it be a...

Thanks to everyone thst replied. I never use the dryer unattended and always clean the filter after every load so looks like to dryer is staying put.

I have owened a hotpoint dryer (TVM570P) for 8 years without any problems which i use occassionally. I have moved house a few times so did not get the news about it being a potential fire hazzard untill recently when a friend came to visit and said it looks like the same dryer they had and...

I am looking to fit a new stair carpet fully fitted wall to wall, I have fitted other carpets in standard rooms quite well so want to have a go. My stairs are plain just straight down nothing fancy. I just want to know- do professional carpet fitters make a template of the stair carpet first...

Yeah i think this would be the biggest problem, alternatvely could I just buy one of the repair spurs, and pour concrete into and around the post to reinforce it?

My fence in the back garden has completely rotten. I want to completely renew myself but that is not the problem. The posts have completely broke off flush with the concrete bases, which are in solid. There is no room to relocate the posts in concrete elsewhere due to next door neighbours patio...

I have seen toolstation selling waste pipe clips for solvent weld 40mm plastic waste pipes for clipping to a wall Would these also work on push fit pipe? i already know that the actual fittings are not interchangeable but these clips seem quite expensive to buy online.

I am decorating the hallway and stripped off the anaglypta on the side of the staircase (in a 1930s semi, stairs with one of those little under cupboard door access to gas lecky meter etc) the side of the stairs has plaster underneath but in poor condition. Rather than get a reskim I want to use...

That may be a bit tricky as the loft hatch is one of those flimsy plastic type from wickes with a plastic arhitrave already moulded to it but I can see where your coming from I was also thinking of a wallpaper border or type of plastic trim that yiou see on window boards/wallcladding to cover it

I have a wallpapered ceiling on my landing and had a new loft hatch cover installed which was moved slightly to the right by 3 inches to site a new ladder. This has left a small gap to the side of the hatch which has been plastred but not to the level of the wallpaper. I am decorating the...

I installed bathroom tiles approximently 1 year ago and wondered why i was forever cleaning the bath edges of grout. My bathroom is only tiled around the top of the bath approx 1 mutitude of little mosaic tiles high. When I looked closely I noticed that all of the grout has been washed out and...

I know it has been quite a while but the installer has come back and said straight away that the fan needs replacing as the bearings are shot, As soon as he took the cover off you could hear a loud vibrating noise which I always thought was the norm for this boiler it did this from day one, I...

it is getting serviced next week as it is just gone one year old but I can bet the noise wont be there when the plumber checks it! its kind of intermittant, I have tried turning the boiler thermostat down but no difference, any clues as to what it could be, do you think sentinel silencer would...

I have had this Main 30 eco combi boiler for over a year now and its has always been reliable, untill recently when I have been using the radiators more often, I noticed this strange noise like a flute or squeaky brakes on a lorry being amplified through the pipes/radiators. At first i...

I want to order a deep pile saxony capet for my through lounge which faces a busy concrete road. I dont want the cheap could 9 foam underlay, as i prefer the rubber waffle stuff as been around a long time and helps to reduce noise. What is the best weight undelay to use for this type of...

hi incidently I have just used them adfter a lot of debate, I have put the radaitor under the bay and it does fit as I used a piece of old carpet for the template. I think most companies would have a disclaimer for incorrectly measured templates?. luckily for me the driver helped carry it in...

I have just moved a radaitor into the bay window to save space but when I have lifted the floorboards to feed in the pipes I have noticed that there is a large joist running around the perimitor of the bay window floor and stops 25cm outside the bay. I am using 10mm microbore and dont want...
