    Suggestions for a covering for deck

    Willing to pay up to £3-4k for the right solution. To be honest, the suggestion "just stay indoors" isn't really helpful, as if I hadn't considered that. I actually love sitting outdoors when it's raining - I just don't want to get wet while it's happening. Equally, I'd like some protection...

    Advice for drilling through a door jamb

    Brilliant, thanks guys. The aim is for the cable to not be visible and just feed through the hole that will be covered by the mounted doorbell. As for protection from water, the doorway is set back under cover, so that shouldn't be an issue. I will be getting a cordless drill for this - any...

    Advice for drilling through a door jamb

    Novice here and would appreciate any advice, please. I need to drill a hole for a mains adapter for a video doorbell and would ideally like to make the hole within the red square on the jamb in the pic. I would really appreciate advice on whether this is a sensible idea and what kind of drill...
