A merchant reccommended that I as it was my first time to lay a garden path (laying sandstone), I should consider geo-fix for the pointing (apparently this takes minutes rather than hours to lay). Does anyone have a feel for the downside of using geo-fix? Does it last? Does it weather well...

This morning there was a puddle of water near the sink, and splattering in the area around the sink. There was no sign of leakage from the roof, the taps where off, but there was a few drips coming from the under the counter top. On drying the floor, no more water has appeared, and on running...

Thanks again, I shall mention this and get it corrected.

Thanks for the two positive responses and good spot on the large gauge on the narrow verge. I didn't notice it, and now I can't stop noticing it.

Guys, We're almost complete on replacing the tiles on our roof but I'm a little concerned about the work done. In the areas where the pitch roof meets the flat roof, the tile line ends at least 15 cm above the flat section and in some places up to 20 cm. Best case, for me it's a little...

Hi, Is there anything I can add to a PVA/water mix (50/50) to make it harder once dry. I've seen powders that can be added to cement. Would these do?

The matts are 160W per meter square, and I have a number matts underneath (2 x 10m2 and 1 X 6m2 and 1 X 2m2). All of it's buried under approx 10mm of screed ( this is a max and it varies).

Another good idea. Though there is about 10mm of screed above the cable, and I wonder if this would spread the heat out uniformly by the time the heat had permeated that far. Will try this. Big cheers

Nice idea. But so I'm clear. I need to run a direct current through the cables for this to work and not the AC from the mains. I had thought about scattering some iron filings (to detect a small magnetic field around the lines, but I hadn't considered the AC/DC aspect. Cheers.

I need to knock a few holes through the screed that is covering the under floor heating cables. Anyone have any idea how I successfully locate the cables so I can avoid damaging them? Cheers.

Hi, I need to have the power cables run to a studio at the bottom of my garden (about 50 meters) and I wanted to know whether the cables could be legally run above ground along the fence. Cheers,

I want to use it at various points to take the level of a large floor.

Anyone got any opinions on either AutoCross Laser 2 v3 or DRAPER EXPERT CLASS 2 SELF-LEVEL CROSS LINE LASER LEVEL KIT

Hi, I'd like to get hold of a decent self levelling laser level and was wondering if anyone has any recommedations? One of those gadgets that draw horizontal and vertical lines. Cheers.

Nice tip. Will try that tonight.

Yes, they are the primary (and only) heat source for the kitchen and dinning area. That's 28 square meters of 160w electric matts.
