    Uplight Shelving

    Second thoughts do you think this light will be powerful enough to give the same effect in the photo's as its only 1.5w?

    Uplight Shelving

    Will pop in tomorrow and see what lights they are using, I just though that perhaps that lights LED wouldn't give the spot effect like in the photos as maybe not powerful enough. I didn't want the whole shelf lit up so didn't think LED strips would give the desired effect. That said def worth...

    Matt Black Exterior Finish : Shop Front

    We recently re painted our shop front matt black (changed from gloss black) using 'Sandtex Ultra Smooth Masonry Paint Black'. We thought this would be the best paint for the job as it states on the tin it is waterproof and dirt resistant. Now only a few weeks after painting there are lots of...

    Uplight Shelving

    We have a nice brick wall and we wanted to have a lighting effect like in the attached. The easiest option for lighting is LED strips but the effect will be different to the attached. Does anyone have a recommendation of how we create the same effect as in the attached and know what lights to...

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    Thanks, I was thinking that a cheaper option and quicker resolution would be just to complely block/seal this pipe at the end until such a time as I need to use it. Blocking/sealing this pipe wont cause any problems will it? Thanks again for all your replies, theyv'e been really helpful.

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    I currently have tenants in the flat, I was going to take a picture last night but stupidly forgot, so no picture I'm afraid. The flat is a new build so I'm the first owner and the pipe is a bit lower down to the one connected to the sink but other than that it is exactly the same. This is...

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    There is only one sink in my kitchen. I've just realised, could this pipe have just been added just in case I wanted to add a second sink? or maybe the builders/plumbers were originally going to add a second sink but didn't bother in the end for some reason so just left the pipe there.

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    Thanks BigBurner. Right I think, I’ve got to the bottom on the mystery smell. It wasn’t the coming from the waste pipe attached to the sink as I thought as the U-bend seemed to have water in it, sufficient enough to stop any stench. But on looking under the sink I noticed there was...

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    Great so it replaces the U bend totally, I see. I also bought a McAlpine U-bend that has a small anti-syphon part (cap) on it. Do you reccomend going with the HepVO or the U-bend? Which is most likely to be the most affective?

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    Thanks a lot for your reply guys. I've just bought a HepVO anti siphon as suggested. Please could someone advice me as to exactly where I should fit it to? i.e. does it go in between the sink and the U bend or is it fitted after the U bend? Any advice would be much appreciated as I...

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    Thanks for your reply Plummerman. The plumber I spoke to was not the guy who fitted the sink, it is a new build and I only have a washing machine connected to the waste run. I will check to see if anything is in the U bend and check there is water present in the U bend when the smell next...

    Anti-Syphon Trap

    Hello, I have had a problem with my kitchen sink whereby at random times a stench seems to appear, it becomes so bad sometimes we actually have to leave the room. Its weird as the smell just seems to appear from nowhere then it goes after a few hours. It is a newly built flat on the 8th...
