Hello, we have an existing overgrown rock garden at the front of our property. It's a small steep sloped garden with some large rocks in and weeds coming through everywhere between the rocks and evergreen bushes. Our thoughts were to: - uproot the weeds and anything else we didn't want - cut...

Thanks v much for the responses. Why seal the walls with acrylic primer? Is ghats to.make it waterproof or so the panels better adhere to it? What if they're not acrylic panels? I'm off tiles just cos I've seen too much mould in student bathrooms and me and the missus are the lazy types who...

There's 3 ponds. V overgrown I know. Largest one is approx 2.5m x 1.8m but as you might be able to make out, they're all set into the ground on one side but with a built up wall on the other (it's a multi-level garden). And they're strange shapes. I'd rather avoid a fence because of the multi...

The other half got into a bit of a frenzy and decided to tear off all the existing bathroom tiles which has fast-tracked this room somewhat. We're thinking of lining it all with waterproof wall panelling. This sort of thing...

Hello, Wasn't sure where to ask this but figured electricians probably use threaded rods as much as anyone to support cable trays etc. I can find tensile strength of the different threaded rods online but can't find any info with regard to their strength on the side (ie if someone was to stand...

Thanks for all your suggestions. Unfortunately there's not enough worktop in front of the 'garage' to sit the tray clear of the opening and as someone has said, the steam would rise up to hit the side of the open door. Its a bit drastic but I think the only solution is to have a small extract...

Thanks v much for comments. It seems you've given reasonable reviews of ryobi although sounds like they're not quite the bargain they once were. Nobody making a real case for erbauer though. Makita/dewalt/milwaukee are undoubtedly superb options but just a bit out my price bracket and maybe a...

Hello, home DIYer here. About to purchase impact driver but am keen to start down the route of a 'range' with multiple tools with shared batteries for diy tools, cleaning tools & garden tools etc. The two ranges that seem to hit my budget are ryobi one+ and erbauer ext. Ryobi looks great but my...
