    Integrated Fridge Freezer Cabinet Height

    We need a new fridge freezer and the one we like is slightly taller than the space where the current FF is (I think most are these days). Above the FF there is space but there is a template piece of timber on top of a flat piece, but I don't know how it's attached! How can I get that off...

    Hi, I have a Potterton Powermax HE boiler and the pressure is regularly dropping since putting the heat on again just recently. I top up the pressure by opening up the filling loop, but I've noticed a leak in the loop itself. See the picture I've added. The valve at the bottom leaks/drips...

    Painting in a (fairly) new build

    Hi, We've been in our house now for a couple of years. All the walls are magnolia (I think) and the paint work is awful. It's such a thin coat and in places it looks like you can see through it. Rubbing it with a damp cloth takes the paint off. We now want to paint a room (well, one for...
