Update: Wet again this morning! I'm wondering if it's condensation. The wood and the plasterwork around the window are so cold to touch on a morning on some parts I can't work out if they are cold or damp. Also, I don't think it rained last night so I reckon it might be condensation..... bugger

Cheers, pal. Appreciate your time.

Hi, So here are the photos from this morning, plus what I have found. The circles indicate where the woodwork was wet. The ticks where it was dry. I was unable to work out whether it was condensation on the wood or water was leaking in? There was considerable condensation on the window this...

Hi, Noticed some damp patches at the bottom of one of the corners of the velux window. See photos. Looking ouside from the Velux, nothing apppears to have shifted and everything looks in place, althoutgh I can only see a limited view (bottom and up the sides). Managed to take photos of the...

Will these zinsser bullseye work as a primer over sanded/keyed varnish?

Thanks Mate. Do I need two coats of primer, then undercoat and gloss?

Yes to the outside. I was trying to not have to sand down the varnish and cut corners. I'd read how the Zinsser can prime anything. Didn't (annoyingly) pick on the 'spot external'. So the external front door and frame have been painted in it. It went on great and dried quick but I now gather...

Hello, I'm an idiot. Didn't read the tin properly. I've coated my varnished front door and frame in Zinseer Bin trying to save having to rub down. Realised before I did the window frames. Have I got any options or is it just sand down and start again? Shoot me now thanks

You know, I've had a look on my hands and knees and the marks look like patches where the sealer hasn't adhered. Possibly because the slab had moisture in? Interestingly, the two areas where this has happened are in the more shaded areas. The main area, that gets more sun, does not have this...

Hello, I'd appreciate some advice. I recently sealed my patio with Thompson's one coat patio sealer. Jet washed it clean. Left it to dry in the sun for 4 hours (this might be my error) and then sealed. It looked great - see before and after. before by samtastic73 posted 17 Apr 2020 at 2:39...

Secureiam I've just seen replacement lenses on E-bay that are not the pet version. Can I just replace them with them? https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/21007544904 And yes - the alarm is 9 years old now. Thinking about upgrading and adding a couple of external cameras. You have any preferred...

Thanks for all your replies. Much appreciated. If I replaced the sensors, would I need to delete the old ones are pair the new ones using the installer manual - they wouldn't just sync would they????

Update. So I set the alarm. Sat outside for 5 mins and then walked in through the conservatory door. That sensor picked me up two steps in and the alarm set off. I then re-set and hid around the corner in the kitchen for 5 mins just out of sight of the sensor. I walked around the corner and...
