    It was commonly used in wallpaper pre 1980s I think.

    Asbestos wallpaper or not?

    I moved into my home 12 years ago and on the walls it had some textured wallpaper which I left for 12 years...till now. I scraped some off and I noticed dust particles in the air from it. Could anyone tell me if the attached pic would potentially have asbestos in it?

    Do you think its possible to cut the glass on an induction hob?

    Hear me out... I have 2 identical induction hobs. One thats cracked on a hob (so its dangerous to use that one). The other has the corner snapped/cracked off at some stage of its life. Do you think its possible to cut the corner off the cracked induction hob and glue it to the corner of the...

    Looking for advise on a custom fit portable aircon window..

    Saw that before I went down the DIY route. This wouldn't be as secure enough for me. Besides, my sheet of perspex will work upstairs and downstairs as and when I need it.

    Looking for advise on a custom fit portable aircon window..

    Right guys, I have a portable aircon unit and have bought some perspex thats cut perfectly for my window. I've cut a hole out so that the aircon hose fits into the perspex sheet. I need some ideas on how I can attach the sheet to the window securely. I have a house cat, so she cannot get out...

    Fence quote

    I've done pictures and sent to them. But its regular postcrete 3ft in a regular concrete fence post hole. Nothing out of the ordinary.

    Fence quote

    I've had quotes and Im asking what people think the general price should be. Not sure why you're telling me to crack on. Nobody has answered my question yet only tried to pick a fight of some sort or make it sound like a mission impossible job. I've done the job before its not EASY but neither...

    Fence quote

    Would prefer to hear quotes or I may offend :D Its definitely not half a days work. I removed the old council small posts (the ones where you usually find green mesh fence attached) and it took me 45 mins. And that is concreted in to last. My neighbour also said it would take 20 mins or so and...

    I need a decent hinge for a old toy box...

    It already has a long thin piano hinge. Over the years its ruined the wood where it attaches too. I need something like the pic I uploaded, so it also screws to the inside of the box giving much more support...

    I need a decent hinge for a old toy box...

    I have a old toy box but the old hinge to it is absolutely rubbish. I've fitted some lifting shocks to it but the hinge only lasted a few days before it ripped out. I need new hinges for it. Something strong and flush. I saw this and wondered what the name of it is or where I can get them...

    Fence quote

    Hi guys, about 7 years ago I erected a fence in my garden. About 14 lap panels and 9ft concrete posts (3ft in the ground). It took me 2 days solid. Recently one post snapped at the base leaving the 3ft of concrete in the ground. Im getting extortionate quotes to get at least 2ft of this...

    Cracked induction hob

    Its not possible, that is only for edges. Mine goes straight over the ring, cannot use any solution to glue that, well, you can but, you still can't use it afterwards.
