    Constant slow trickle of water coming from outflow pipe

    Hi, I have a potterton boiler, about 4 years old. It has an outflow pipe (hopefully the right name) that goes from the boiler to outside. It's always leaking a small amount of water - a constant slow stream of water. I am not sure if this is normal, or what I could do to reduce it. The...

    Skirting board heating

    Hi, Not sure if this is the right board, but I wanted to ask the combined and always helpful brains of this group a bit of advice on how effective the Skirting Board style heating is. We have been looking at discrete heat, but I know there are a few options (climaboard) but we are not...

    Design, planning, legals.... etc

    Hi, I am about to start on a renovation and extension of my little flat in West London. I was hoping for some advice as to who I need involved, and how much it is likely to cost. First, here is something very close to my floorplan (this is a house down the road)...

    Uneven flooring

    Hi, I have a small flat with wooden floors with carpet over the top. The floorboards underneath are terribly uneven - you can't even really lie on the carpet without an extra thick rug on top to even it out. The 'waves' are actually visible in a number of places - plus there is a nice...

    British Gas Homecare 200

    Hi, I just wondered if there were any good/bad opinions on the Homecare service offered by BG. I have signed up for it, in the hope to avoid too much stress/worry in the future, but they have not been in touch for the original checkup. I called and they have given me a date of 21 Feb for...

    Ideal Response Boiler pressure too low

    Hi, My Ideal Response Combi boiler's pilot light seems to have gone out. I can't see how I can relight it. The pressure is low, (about point 8) and I can see the orange light that people talk about is on. The system sounds like it is operating ok - it seems to turn on the fan, and...
