Hello. I think I have figured it out. It is working as it should now for over a week. I am posting here in case someone else has the same problem. I reset the dip switch on the transmitter and receiver to defualt (on-off-off-off) and push the little reset button on the transmitter. I had to put...

I want to stop any creepy crawlies coming in from this area. Maybe the photo is hard to see but the gap around the pipe is quite large and cannot be resolved with just paint.

Hi. Thanks for your reply. The loft is part boarded but empty. I touched a bit of the insulation and it did not feel damp but it may well have been further below.

They did but I want a bigger housing to take more than just what was installed. I read online that installers are only required to put closest entry point and will not do any more unless they feel like it. I guess because more cabling = more cost (material and time). You are right centre of...

Hi all. Which type of sealant is best to use on the wall where radiator pipes come out of please? Thanks.

Thanks for the push in the right direction. I'm happy to take it from here. Love you guys.

Thanks for that term. So I assume this is what I do: Take out old back plate, put screw an architrave switch back plate in the left half of the hole, wire it up, pack the right side with expanding foam/cardboard, plaster over, then paint over. Is this right? Thanks, this seems easier. I've...

The router block won't fit into that. I need a bigger one

Hello. I have this abomination in the corner of my living room. Is there some sort of white VHS box sized container that I can attach to the wall to shove all this into and not take up too much floor real estate? Thanks.

Hi guys. I'm going out of my mind. The door is letting wind in from the top right corner (looking from the outside) and I assume the hinge needs to be adjusted but for the life of me I can't adjust it correctly! I believe then that this hinge can only adjust in one direction and I need to...

Hi guys. I wanted to give an update. I bought a used billy from facebook marketplace for £20 and bought another for £20 for extra shelves (extra shelves from Ikea are an extortionate price). Anyway, I have a new problem now as per the photo below lol. I have posted my issue here...

Hi all. I repurposed an Ikea cabinet but obviously did not take into account walls being uneven and now I have reached the below scenario. I wanted to replace the switch with a flat chrome plate but the switch is wider than the original pictured below so I will have a problem. Do offset...

Hi all. I heard dripping on the ceiling of the first floor when it was raining outside so I went into the loft the next day to take a look and I think I may have a leak somewhere. Do the pictires indicate a requirement to repair from inside the loft or from outside the roof? Also, is that a...

Hi all. I have a greenstar 30i with a Boss TPSRF51 thermostat. I have set up the thermostat according to the instructions. When the fire image (heat indicator) pops up on the thermostat, the blue boiler light turns on and fires up the CH. All good here. When the fire image disappears...

Thanks for the tips guys. I will go for the Billy bookcase for the downstairs and I will go to Selco for the smaller non-standard space I have upstairs. Thanks so much!

Hello. I hope you're all keeping safe and well. I'm looking to build a floor to ceiling set of shelves to store shoes near my front door, and will want to cover it with curtains or something as cheap. I'm looking to keep costs low. I was thinking of getting some white edged chipboard cut...

Thanks guys. £1 scraper knife did the trick

Thanks, do you have a link please? I did a search for "xpert flat scraper" but I don't get any direct results

Hi all. I'm following this guide: but I can't find "moon knife" at the usual suspects. Do I have to go to a specialist store or amazon? Or is it just named something else? Thanks all!

Would this be good enough please? http://www.screwfix.com/p/no-nonsense-expanding-sticky-foam-hand-held-750ml/4108h
