Yeah, I am thinking I will need to replace the cover and frame. I don't think there is any chance I am going to source a second hand one that will fit. The current one is 50 years old. Thanks for your help.

Thanks very much for this Ian. I am considering putting one of these in instead. Thanks.

Thanks a lot. I'll try the same. Thanks.

Thanks. Just how much smaller did you go?

Hi I have this drain cover that is cracked and I need to replace. It's in the garage and probably has been there since the house was built in the 1960s. Size of it is 650mm x 500mm. So I thought I would just replace it, but I see no equivalent replacement in the shops, new ones are straight...

Thanks everyone, removed the old pipe, connected underneath the sink and all is well. Thanks for your help.

Hi, I was hoping I could have some advice. Replacing my integrated dishwasher. Original cold water feeder pipe is this... www.demos2.co.uk/2018/OCT/22_10_2018/existing_pipe.jpg On my new dishwasher, rather than have the usual flush cold water connector at the back like my old dishwasher, I...

Hi, Thanks for any thoughts. Garden is on a slope. I'm having my front garden taken out and blockpaved so two cars can park instead of one. If you look at the below link, (A) shows the boundary between my driveway (i live on left), and to the right is my neighbour's drive and (B) shows where...

Thanks guys. I think it is going to have to be two new taps I think.

Hi, I have a strange problem with my immersion heater water tank overflowing. It overflows right over the top of the tank. It does this when the bath mixer tap is running BOTH hot and cold water, but not either one on their own. Strange. Why would this be? I will explain the story below with...

Thanks so much to everyone :) It was number 3!

Hi, A while ago I had disabled this doorbell (photo below from weblink) due to a nuisance person pressing it. I did this by deattaching one wire (the one with grey tape round the end). I never noted which screw I de-attached the wire from. Now I want to wire it back and have a choice of bottom...

Thanks for eveyone's comments. I agreed with the window company to just pay for the replacement glass - £78. So they are letting me off the labour cost. I think it is a fair compromise. I mean cracks are not covered under warranty, but they know as well as I do, (without openly admitting it)...

Hi, To my horror this weekend my double-glazed window cracked with no apparent reason. Image link below. The crack is on the inside glass, not the outside. I am the only person occupying my flat, so I know it has not been hit from the inside. When you look at it, you can see that the crack...
