I have attached the main view now

The overflow is not being reached, but water ends up covering the float ‍♂️

The question says it all really. I have just put in a new toilet. Everything seems fine, but it does have a constant trickle into the bowl. It's hardly noticible... but I noticed and now can't unsee it. Is there a simple fix for this? Is it something to do with the float? Everything is brand new.

I will clarify a little more. The sink is rather large, but will be stood on a pedestal. The wall attachment will be to make sure its held closely to the wall. The wall is timber and plasterboard.

Hello. I purchased a new sink online and plan to fit it tomorrow. It will be put on a plasterboard wall, but the fittings it arrived with look wrong. I have attached an image of what it came with, but there were zero instructions included. Is this type of fitting for a masonary wall? If it...

Hello, I have a Hive thermostat but it keeps changing the current time by 10 minutes. I change the time setting and save it with the current time, which works. Later in the day I go back, and the clock has gone back by exactly 10 minutes- every single time I do this. What's going on?

Hello. I have used dot and dab to put some plasterboard onto a brick wall so I can tile it. Is it possible to tile onto the board without screwing the board into the wall? Does dot and dab hold some decent weight? I'm only putting subway tiles on

Yes! That's them! .... I am also buying this for a door ☺

I have had to draw this because I dont know the name of it to google it. It's basically a flat ended screw, but it screws into a tidy cap end. The screw can be tightened into the cap end, or the cap end can be tightened into the screw as it also has a screwable head I'm just looking for...

I'm trying not to turn the heating on this year - haha

The top corner of my kitchen wall started to crumble a bit. I used a paper scraper to remove it. There is a radiator/water pipe behind this section of wall. The pipes have turned green but are not wet. In fact, nothing there appears to be wet, but that corner of wall is almost dust now. I have...

Thanks. Do you think gaps would be noticable if I use this method? Also, will it be ok to varnish after? I dont want oily marks in the wood where i apply it etc.

I have put a small amount of parquet flooring down for the first time. It looks really nice, but annoyingly has a few small gaps around where the border and other pieces meet. What is the best way to fill these gaps so it is not noticable? I am reading that mixing sawdust with PVA is a big...

I actually reposted with more images. I couldn't delete this old thread. https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/please-identify-the-pipe-coming-up-from-my-hallway-flooring-image-included.596243/

Well, this is an old house, and I think all earthlings is connected to the gas meter, which is in another room‍♂️

No. I still have no clue and I'm really frustrated now. Nobody seems to know

I've tried cleaning it up a bit more. It looks like the thing on top of the pipe has been bashed in to block/plug it. I could be wrong though. You can see on one of the pics that the pipe coming out of the floor is thinner than the thing in the top.

The wire has now fallen off. But somebody had already cut it off before I was doing anything with it. It is something plaster stuck in the top from when I had this space plastered. It's just a hole that only goes down so far

Believe it or not. That is the cleaned up version It is a copper pipe. It has a little turn on it that has a totally fallen off now. It had wire wrapped around it. You can see on the pics what was attached before.

Hello. Please can someone identify what this pipe is in my hallway? I am wanting to put wood flooring down today, so wondered if it was an old gas pipe that I cut just saw off? Thanks in advance.
