    Mixer tap (Frontline Espada) spout snapped from body

    Thanks for the prompt response! I think the bit left in the main tap screws out (though I haven't been able to get a good grip on it!). And yes, the bit left in the spot is held by a couple of small allen screws - I've taken out as you can see in pic below. Just feels like the brass bit has...

    Mixer tap (Frontline Espada) spout snapped from body

    Hi all, I have a Frontline Espada bath/shower mixer tap (2yrs old). The spout has snapped off ("it just snapped" said my son!) and I can't immediately see how to fix it - everything is still in good nick and I'm hoping there's just some sort of spare part I can use to reconnect the spout to the...

    Timer plug for Vaillant Turbomax 824E

    Hi all, I have a Vaillant Turbomax 824E combi boiler (with one of those simple Honeywell single dial room thermostats). At the moment, we don't have any 'timer' facility. I realise that getting a purpose built timer fitted would probably be the first recommendation, but as money is very tight...

    Where online can I buy a single capacitor?!

    Does anybody know where I can buy a single capacitor online/delivered? (16V, 1300uF) - I've managed to find a few suppliers, but all minimum orders are around £20 or so! I'm happy to pay a few quid postage for convenience, even though the capacitor should only set me back around 50p. Any...

    GU10 goes off after 20 secs

    Thanks all - I think you're right - it's definitely heavy enough to be a transformer and my bulbs are the ones with 'pins' rather than 'mushrooms'. Cheers

    GU10 goes off after 20 secs

    Thanks for the response dynomo. Yeah, have tried new bulbs and aslo just swapping bulbs around the three lights - and it's still the same location that goes off, the others work fine Checked for loose connections as well, but they all seemed pretty sound. Could it be something to do...

    GU10 goes off after 20 secs

    Hi, In my hallway I have 3 GU10's in the ceiling. They all come on when I flick the switch, but after about 20 seconds or so, a particular one of them goes out (it's always the same one). In the ceiling, each light has its own little black junction box and a heavy grey cylindrical object...

    Elusive Tile Trim!

    Does anybody know where I can get hold of a couple of white tile trim external corner pieces?! I've tried loads of DIY shops and had quite a good search on the net, but with no success! Everywhere seems to sell straight lengths (it's the simple white plastic curved bevel stuff that I'm...

    No power to heated towel rail

    Thanks for the quick help ColJack. Couldn't find anything wrong with any of the other sockets/cables so ended up closing off the cable and taking a spur from a kitchen socket. Have now got heat in bathroom!

    No power to heated towel rail

    Hi, My heated towel rail has never worked. I've opened the fused connection unit and there's no power at all coming from the mains supply cable. This is running up inside a stud wall between my bathroom and kitchen and I haven't been able to identify exactly where the cable leads to...
