Hi I skimmed a wall after a repair job and then put wallrock lining paper on. I then bought a 2.5l tin of Laura Ashley pale linen paint. Fine. Then the mrs said the lining paper looked so good why dont we put it on the other walls?. I agreed. However now I have relaised that I don't now think...

Thanks Bob - no we didnt sweep the flue. There was a gas fire there previously. I'll check out your posts. Thanks again

Thanks for these replies. I see where I have gone wrong. My faceplate is fitted into a backbox NTE5a which i bought at the same time as the ADSL faceplate. It was this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006V1P39A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have been running the...
