    New mains or not

    Thanks for taking the time to reply. Honestly, I don't have a question on the initial quote, and am quite happy to pay. I appreciate the time and effort taken to visit me and scope everything out. My main point of contention, and thus the result of my question was the additional £1000 to supply...

    New mains or not

    So, small update. Had a heating engineer round. He's quoted for a Gledhill unvented cylinder, 180L and a Worcester Greenstar 24i System Boiler. His quote came in at £4300. Got him round again the other day, as he'd forgotten the rads! We only need 4 rads (hallway and each bedroom) but he's...

    Thanks for the reply. I'll get in touch with the supplier, though looking at their website it seems they guarantee 7m Static head. Would being on a water meter affect their ability to measure the pressure at the stopcock?

    Greetings and Salutations. Looking for some advice really, I've had a look around the forum for some ideas but would appreciate your help. We need to replace our boiler and gravity fed hot water system. Now, I'd like to go for an unvented system but we don't have enough flow rate or pressure...

    painting MDF shelves

    I've just painted some MDF shelves. 1- NO PVA. I used Zinsser 123 Primer. Not cheap at £15L but does a really good job. 2- Personally, I used 320 and the surface was like glass 3- Get a sanding block. You don't need to sand the hell out of it, just take the rough bits off. 4-...
