Hi, I am unable to reach my top most gutters on my house and was considering buying a Telescopic Gutter Cleaning Lance my Karcher pressure washer. Have seen plenty on EBay but have been warned some are not compatible with Karcher connector. Can anyone recommend some products. Telescopic rod...

Got a hotpoint gas cooker which is 9 months old. Recently found that the main hob won't stay lit. As under warranty got their engineer round who said it was the thermocouple and replaced it. Worked for a few days, then got the same problem. Same engineer came a second time and replaced...

One of the led lights in my bathroom has now finally stopped working and I need to change the bulb. Have pulled the unit out and can see it's a JC94472. It has a large green connector block at the back made by lennel. It looks like it should just pull away from this green connector but it's...

My less than 1 year old gas cooker now has intermittent problems lighting a gas hob. Namely, it goes out shortly after starting and is getting worse. It's still under warranty, so have an engineer coming round. Assuming it's the thermocouple, was just wondering whether he'll need to switch off...

I have an old Baxi Bermuda boiler in my 3 bedroom house rental property which is working great but I'm aware that at some it'll need replacing, so just contemplating what my options are when the time comes. I'm aware that the whole job will involve quite an overhaul due to needing to have a new...

Have found on cold mornings (- temps) the gear stick won't move left and right but only up and down. Once things warm up, it's ok. Have sprayed wd40 around the accessible gear rod areas that are accessible in the engine bay but makes no difference. Think the issue is closer to where the...

Was told by the garage that the locking wheel nut key for my 2014 Zafira needs replacing as not working too well. Any ecommendations for where I can get a cheap replacement? Also, considering whether I should just replace the locking nuts with standard ones. Is the theft of alloy wheels...

Need to change the ignition key barrel on my 2007 fiesta. Just wondered how difficult the job is and if there's anything in particular I need to be aware. Also any recommendations on where to buy the parts. Finally, if too tricky a job, what i can expect to pay a garage for the job. Many thanks...

My 2007 petrol fiesta intermittently starts. Dashboard lights come on but silence when turning the key. No clicking sound or anything. After a few attempts it usually starts. Battery appears to be fine. Got same issue with jump leads connecting it to my other car. I'm guessing the starter...

Are these attachments to pressure washer as shown in linkd below any good? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pressure-Extension-Cleaning-Connect-Accessories/dp/B0BSGF99RW/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_sspa?keywords=gutter+cleaner&qid=1699222925&sr=8-2-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfYXRm&psc=1...

Need some artificial grass to put down In an area of my front garden. Any good value recommendations?

Our over 10 year old Whirlpool has stopped working. Basically, one of the 4 hobs doesn't start up. Interested to know what are the usual reasons are for this and if possible to fix. Failing that, looks like replacing the whole unit doesn't look too tricky as just lifts out. Thanks

Should the AO gas cooker installer (gas safe) restart my boiler pilot light? Just asking as am having this cooker delivered on Monday and I know relighting the pilot light on the boiler can be troublesome. As part of the gas cooker installation, the AO gas safe engineer will need to test for...

Just a quick question, without going in to the long boring story behind it. I have had two gas safe registered engineers measure the gas pressure drop after a gas cooker is installed. 1: Engineer 1 came round and measured a 2 mbar drop when the cooker was installed, so disconnected the cooker...

Am finding that every year I get the service my gas safe engineer, he did finds it tricky to get the pilot light lit. It's a Baxi Bermuda which I know is old but actually runs well, so reluctant to change just yet. Have been told that the thermocouple or some other part might need changing...

Have been getting a slight smell of gas from around a Beko gas cooker which I only bought 10 months ago. Initially we thought it was coming from a poor horizontal bayonet fitting which I had fully replaced with a new vertical fitting. But when the gas safe engineer did the measurements...

I have a horizontal bayonet fitting for my gas cooker. Was told that these things are supposed to be vertical. Is that correct? Considering having the piping changed to make it vertical. Thanks

In the bottom of the freezer section, keep finding a puddle of frozen water. I scrape it out, only to find another puddle there the next day. Been going on for a couple of weeks now. Any ideas what th issue could be? Thanks

Need to change the lino flooring in my rental property kitchen but there is a gas cooker there. I suspect the gas cooker will need disconnecting and moving so the flooring can be laid underneath. Not sure what sort of gas connection is there. Do I need to get a gas safe engineer to do the...
