    Replacement rodding eye covers/point

    I've got these two broken rodding eye points in our garden that I ought to get fixed. I was hoping to just buy new covers for both but it doesn't appear that you can just buy the covers and end up with the whole assembly...

    French doors leaking

    We bought our 1996 townhouse a few years back and occasionally have issues with the french doors on the 1st floor Juliet balcony. I suspect they're the original doors from when it was built and we do need to replace them as they're not the most airtight in winter but I was hoping to put that off...

    Routing ethernet cable safely through wall to doorbell

    I've had a Ring video doorbell for a few years now and I'm finally looking to get away from their subscription based cloud model.

    Soil pipe cross flow between sink and shower

    Attached is a ground floor picture of the soil pipe in our home. There was originally a toilet which has now been permanently capped off and you can also see a sink waste pipe attached. My plan is to drill out one of the 50mm sockets directly opposite the current sink waste for a new 40mm...
