Dan - I just google pressure reducing valve and yes, that's the one. Is it urgent? Is it likely to cause issues over the weekend? Thank you

Hi guys, I've had a very embarrassing afternoon after actually creating a mountain from a molehill in my new build property! Basically my wife said she'd noticed water dribbling out of a 'black 2 inch bit of plastic' found just under the pressure guage, under the kitchen sink. So I took took...

Thanks for the reply. To be honest the option of not using the same tile as the roof was simply down to the fact I wasn't overly confident using heavier tiles and I thought cutting them might be a bit of a pain, that was all really. I want to do this myself but only if I can do a decent job if it.

Hi all, My first post here so be gentle! I've fitted dimmers before no problem but ive just moved into a new build and bought a dimmer from B and Q. When i took a look, the connections have confused me. There appears to be too many wires in the box? The dimmer is for a room which has 2...
