I would if I had a centre punch. I will add this to my list of wants. Thanks. Locksmith coming out tomorrow.

I've been looking into the reviews on these tools - they don't seem to have particularly good results. I'm going to bit the bullet and get a locksmith out. Many thanks.

Knowing my luck I will break the door whilst trying to snap the lock. I have two locks to change - this one where it's stuck and won't come out. The other one - I've worn the head on the retainer screw and despite trying the rubber band method very carefully, I can't get it out. I think I'm...

Hi I have tried using a rubber band and the drill on a slow setting (reverse) but I still cant get the screw out. Just wondering if there is anything else I can try before calling in the pro's? Many thanks

Yes, it does do that.

Still no joy :-(

OK, I will have another go. Is it OK that I have removed the handle? Also can I use either key end of the barrel to try lining it up, or does it have to be a particular end, ie - the outside?

Hi I've watched the videos but I cant get the lock out. I have gone further than the video and actually removed the handle but the lock still wont come out. Should I put the handle back on and call a locksmith?

Yes, cushioned sheet vinyl. Ordering online but will use a professional fitter. Many thanks.

Excellent video - thank you.

Hi Looking to buy vinyl flooring for kitchen. Kitchen floor is all nice and level/smooth. I want to put down a vinyl that will hopefully last 7 years. How do I know which is a good product to put down? Have been looking at Onlinecarpets. The backing of these vinyl's is foam. Their cheaper...

No, but I will give it another try. Thanks.

Hi I was trying to change a eurocel cylinder in my pvc front door. I used my little impact driver to undo and redo. Something was going wrong in that I couldn't get the cylinder out. I tried undoing another screw but think I have over done it so I have worn the head. Seen the trick to have...

All sorted. I would never have worked out the front panel comes off. Thanks everyone, all sorted now.

Hi Really interested in how this pans out. I thought my situation was identical but my tiles weren't marley after all. The tiles were a PVC type, circa 1970. I was told the adhesive for these tiles was bitumen. I took technical advise from F Ball, but in the end I just didn't have the time...

Hi I need to fix my toilet. It has started flushing by itself and also a small constant trickle of water is flowing into the pan. The toilet is about 4 years old. I managed to get a panel off but don't know how to get greater access to the parts. Have attached pictures and grateful for any...

Thanks. The plasterer was fine with the amount of adhesive left behind.

Hi, I am fitting a new kitchen I have taken all the cupboards off the walls and removed all the tiles. The tiles were from work top to under the wall units. When I retire, I am only going 2 tiles high, or I may go for an upstand. I have removed about 95% of the old tile adhesive and the...

Hi, sorry to hijack the post. I have the very same, exact situation - kitchen, original old marley tiles underneath (prob 1970s) and staining coming through lino which has been laid over the top. Have looked at the F-Ball Adhesive Isolator Membrane but it is very expensive - about £180 for 7...
