In the end, decided against the core drill as I got my old man up to help and we had plenty of time. Got half way through the job and started wishing we had got the core drill but things soon came right and we now have a white knight 382 with a vent out the back all working very nicely (at the...

I'm planning to put a hole through kitchen wall for a vent for a tumble dryer. The hole will be between 4" and 6" diameter and I've got some time so is there any drawback with using a standard masonry bit and drilling round the diameter then chiselling out rest or am I going to be much better...

Thanks for the advice. I think I am going to go for the White Knight 382WV compact dryer as it has a rear vent and is well priced. One last question, is putting a rear vent through an external wall a job I could undertake myself or is it recommended to get someone in? I don't suppose there...

Thanks for that, pretty much what I thought. I've got Drayton TV4s (?) on a couple of the radiators, if I turn these to 0 will that be good enough to cut the flow from that end or is there another way?

Plumber recently suggested my CH seating needs flushing to get rid of the black sludge building up in a radiator he bled. Said it would be around £400. I bled all radiators and only the ones on middle floor had black water coming out, all others were clear and water in boiler was clear (he...

Sorry to be sour, I guess I'm a bit gutted because my policy on not insuring the boiler has come back to haunt me. Do most people pay 100 quid a year for a service contract or think (like me) that these things are sufficiently reliable to trust not to break down too often and that when they...

I realise that Boilers shouldn't be fixed by those who do not know what they are doing, so when water started leaking out of the combi unit (potterton puma 100) i called potterton and they sent one of their guys round. The only thing wrong with the boiler was a nut that needed tightening, no...
