Thanks for that. I'm coming to the conclusion that perhaps its best leaving things as they are, so much could go wrong. By the way, I've just had a telephone 'estimate' which would be subject to a site survey. £11,500 approx. That covers the use of Tobermore 100x200x60 blocks. Bullnose edging...

Thanks so much for your detailed contribution. It will provide greater insight when I get subsequent quotes. Pity I didn't know this prior to the two previous contractor visits.

Thanks for that. Any idea of approx. cost per M2.

Coventry.

Obviously going to have to get more quotes. Out of interest, I found the contractor for the lower quote on trusted traders. They had over 200 positive reviews, I must say I tend to treat some with suspicion. The provider of the higher quote is a small local business (deals only in brick...

This appears to be an absolute minefield, the deeper you look into it.

Clearly I’m going to have to legislate for a higher spend. The guy providing the lower quote has to be cutting corners.

Wow, that seems like a lot.

This is the Midlands, therefore, quote 1 is in the correct ballpark. The guy said he would excavate to the correct level for all the prescribed infill.

Just had two quotes to upgrade my driveway (98m2) and to the untrained eye they both appear to be similar except for the price. My question; is one too high or one too low, and what would the typical price per m2 for this type of work? Quote 1; Groundworks Dig out area. Test for soft areas...

Prior resolving this myself I had mailed them twice without success, the only response was; ‘We're currently experiencing a high volume of calls and emails, and are working our way through each enquiry as quickly as possible.’

A few suggestion offered, but the one that resolved the issue was a 'Reset of the TV's power output'.

Yes. But Richer Sounds are very slow responding. Issue now sorted thanks to input from a contributor on ‘AVForums’

I purchased a Sony-KD55XH9505 in November 2020. From day one it has been connected to a Yamaha YAS 101 sound bar and has performed perfectly. Last week the audio output suddenly failed, something I attributed to an Optical Cable malfunction as my DVD player still functioned via an Audio Digital...

While waiting for delivery of an enclosure to try and save the dada, I've had another look at this today and the only thing to report is that when a CD/DVD is inserted into the drive it endeavours to read it? Don't know if that’s encouraging or not.

Thanks for your input. I’ve given that a go, using HDMI interface, but with no success. The On/Off button continues to flash ‘white display’, also, the Cap Lock and Num Lock keys also flash intermittently.

Water has recently got on my laptop (Toshiba Satellite L50). While most of it appeared superficial there is now no screen display or fan noise when its switched on. The ON/OFF button light works and the front power light is constant ‘ON’ while the ‘Wireless Comms indicator flashing red. I’ve...

Just submitted an enquiry. Thanks for the lead.

I need to sort out a faulty bathroom tap cartridge, (movement is tight and it occasionally leaks). It looks pretty old and I can’t see how the generally available replacements would suit. Anyone point me towards a possible replacement. (Attached images of tap and cartridge top.) Regards.

To the relief of those that have responded to and tolerated my numerous question I believe I can finally see an end in sight. Many thanks to all the contributors especially 'jelliottelectrical', who, following a visit provided initial guidance and now a very competitive quote to carry out the...
