Morning. I have just had Hive installed by British Gas, and I must say, I love it. Easy to use and actually useful. I have invested in a few light bulbs and a plug socket. I am wondering though, does Hive have any solid plans for future products other than light bulbs and sensors? It is very...

Dont worry, i am not going to get started on best removal and application methods etc. Basically, i am too impatient, and rubbish at the task from start to finish, and so i am going to get someone else to do it, better than i ever could. I have been quoted £50 for a tiled shower enclosure with...

My central heating system has a separate hot water cylinder to store hot water, along with a red expansion vessel above it, typically around 1 bar. I only noticed the other day, but when using hot water, via a tap etc, the pressure can drop on the dial by around 0.2bar. Then when the heating is...

In our house we have a loft access with a plastic hinged door that drops down when opened. I have been looking at loft ladders from wickes, around the £70 mark. Does anyone have any experience of them and are they easy to fit? Do they screw onto the wooden frame?

I have had a wood burning stove fitted into my opened out fire place. This has been cement rendered, and i now want to paint the inner of the fire place hole cream. The stove stands about an inch off the back wall (cement rendered) and about 45/50cm away from the sides of the cement rendered...

Firstly, hi. I have a 28CDI combi boiler, i tested the heating for winter the other day and it was fine, nice hot radiators etc. Today i switched it on (heating) and to all intense and purposes, it works fine apart from it is not heating the radiators to a hot temp, just luke warm. The...
