I've acquired this jig and router. I'm only interested in how to cut the recesses under the worktop to insert bolts to join the corners - can they be done with that cross shape on the left? Also, I think my router is missing a guide bush. It's a Silverline 675059. Can I get a guide bush for...

I decided to cut our laminate worktop with a circular saw, since it's an end that will just butt up against a corner. It was long enough to allow me a few practice cuts, but on the third one it came to an abrubt halt as the blade became blunt and overheated. So I went to Screwfix to get another...

I have a laminate kitchen worktop I need to fit, so I've obtained a Silverline half inch router 675059 and a jig. However, I seem to be missing a guide bush. Does anyone know of it's possible to get a guide bush to fit this thing? I also have no instructions with the jig!

I need to replace MCBs in my consumer unit (one is overrated and another is underrated) with 32A MCBs. Consumer unit is MK, but Screwfix and Toolstation (and every other shop!) seem to be out of stock of MK MCBs. Are there any other brands that are compatible with MK? The MK ones I'm looking for...

Doing a kitchen refit and we were planning to fit a gas hob. We are temporarily without any fitted hob as I throw out the old knackered cooker and installed a built-in (eye-level) oven. In the meantime, I got single-ring plug-in induction hob from Lidl and I'm so impressed with it that I am now...

See photo. We're installing this eye-level oven in a tower unit. Unfortunately the switch has been installed behind the tower, above the oven - the original thinking was to have the switch in the cupboard above the oven, but I understand that's not a good idea, so we need to move it. I was...

See attached image. This socket is for a gas hob that will be in the kitchen unit (with drawers) that goes in front of here. The switch next to it is an isolator for a spur off the ring circuit, the cable for which runs up the wall for an extractor hood. The switch and socket could remain here...

I've removed a radiator and eventually going to replace it with a different type of radiator, but I need to remove the previous radiator valves from the pipes and cap off the pipes with isolation valves. I've thought of a squeeze-off tool but don't want to damage the pipe. I've also thought of...

I've removed a radiator from our central heating system by closing the rad valves and emptying it. I now need to remove the valves and cap off the pipes, so can I safely clamp the pipes for long enough to do this? I would rather avoid draining the whole system.

We're getting a new kitchen - the house has traditional floorboards. We're going to lay vinyl on it, so will need to lay board on top of the floorboards to level it. Would plywood be the right material for this? What thickness is recommened?

I need to possibly replace an elbow joint under the floor as it is leaking quite badly. This is due to a cowboy heating engineer install less than a year ago - I'd reported the elbow as dripping previously but it had later stopped - not sure if the engineer just tightened it, but I need to...

Just had our CH replaced (Boiler, rads, pipes - the works) in our house which has a suspended timber floor. After this was done, we had insulation installed underfloor - Knauf wool between the joists with plastic netting stapled to the joists. The CH engineer was supposed to lag the pipes under...
