we agreed on the price of the work that needed doing, which obviously included the much needed wiring for the extractor fan. he said it was an oversight on his end. ok cool, i asked to ensure that it is done and even though it would take longer now for that part of the kitchen its all good, all...

Not me lol will either be the sparky that i find or will just post up the job locally on trade/fb website. I have an sds which will be able to do the job but just dont have the core drilling bit, but even if i did i dont think i'd attempt it anyways as it seems very laborous to get through at...

ahhhhhhhh ok gotcha, i did think that the top route might have been the easiest but once it reaches past the cupboards there is going to be quite a distance till it reaches the hood which i think might be around 20cm as the hood itself is 90cm but the vent part is obviously alot slimmer than the...

unfortunately brick wall leading to exterior

its a Chimney style extractor. its this one : https://www.samsung.com/uk/cooking-appliances/hoods/wall-mount-hood-nk36m5070cs-ur/ thanks

ahh good point, i guess i can try find the route easier if i tap the plasterboard and should be able to tell where the hollow spots are and do as suggested. and no doesnt matter if the PB has holes in it as it will be tiled over. seems to also be mixed feedback regarding the issue of tiling...

right i think i get you now, so basically take top cupboards off. take faceplate off the socket on the wall, and then go up from the inside of there upwards because obviously it must have a clear section where that cables coming from, fish the cable from wherever we decide to pop out above the...

ah ok i didnt think about this way, the only problem is that directly above is the bathroom which is already fully tiled so wouldnt be able to get underneath the bathroom. Unless im guessing if you mean to go via the route of the spotlights. and sorry if i sound stupid but would it not then go...

yes planning to tile the entire area afterwards

its dot n dab, which im guessing is the least desirable in this situation? lol

Long story short, sparky 'forgot' to put in the wiring for the extractor hood/fan which sits above the hob and will be next to the cupboard shown, the walls already been boarded and plastered now aswell (happened to be away during this time otherwise i'd have noticed it straight away)...

My main pan-draw has 2 slide-out draws at the top, I am looking to get this Samsung induction hob - NZ84C6058FK Link to the hob It is a slim fit induction hob which i assume will then allow me to keep my 2 draws at the top because I believe in some normal worktop (mainly gas) hobs the top draw...

We are thinking about having around 55m2 of porcelain paving laid outside. the area that it will be laid upon is around 50% flagged and 50% turfed currently. I have managed to source the porcelain tiles myself for around £1,750 to cover 60m2 (just incase of any breakages). I just wanted to...

I think that in theory this would cost at least 3x as much because the difference in price between the door sizes is only £5-10 here n there. I would still have to get door trimmed regardless because the sizes they have wouldn't be the same size as the frame, maybe widthwise but not heightwise...

Ahhhhh so it is possible. Thank you very much for descriptive advice. I already have a big tub of Danish oil, do you think a couple layers of that would be good? So if I'll be chopping past the lipping anyways. Shall I just take 90mm off either the top or bottom (if so which side is best to...

Guessing this isn't possible as it seems like way too much to take off either the top or bottom of the door? Missus wants to match all the doors in the house (LPD Carini), and we have a door which is like a 1½ sized door (widthwise) due to the house previously being altered for a wheelchair...

Haha yes its the 7 panel one. I got the pre-finished so it was abit annoying to have to cut but i took it to my local timer merchant and they charged £12 to do the side cuts and to cut the bottom. Saved me alot of effort to be honest. just varnishing the sides now and then hopefully after 2 more...

Ah thanks I don't have a track saw but I think I'm taking it to a timber merchant who said they can cut it for me. Do you mind if I asked what did you do once cut? Did you varnish/oil the newly cut sides for protection? Thanks

The current door that I have is an LPD Carini 762mm x 2040mm My existing doorframe is 762mm at the top and 755mm at the bottom so its about 7mm out. I also need to leave a 2-3mm gap inbetween which means I will have to roughly shave off about 10mm total. I was thinking that the best way to do...

Have a couple of hairline cracks in my SLC which has been laid for about a good 2 weeks now, i think it may have been due to foot traffic since the LVT has been delayed in being layed (scheduling issues with my flooring guy) room spans around 6m x 5m and its not tons of cracks just a few going...
