Ive tried drying it out, so it looks as though the element has failed... Thanks for the replies, advice and help...

Hello, since my wife cleaned our free standing kenwood cooker (gas hob, electric fan oven). Every time we turn the oven on, it trips the house electrics. The fan is still working, as is the smaller oven to the side of the main oven. Its just when we try and turn the temperature knob to use...

The finances would allow it, its the principle and the cost of the tiles in the first place. I know what you mean about when you walk straight in and it just doesnt look right. I spent 10 years in the Grenadier Guards, so you can imagine how much it winds me up every time i look :x Right...

I think its looking that way :cry: The more i look, the more i keep picking up points. What a waste of cash! The silicone sealant is shocking around the bath, no access to underneath, floor tiles not fixed or grouted correctly, some of the cuts around the ceiling are :shock: Im starting...

Thanks for pointing the skirting tiles out, i hadn,t noticed. Thats an easy job to rectify. The radiators coming off anyway for a new one and the tiles put over the pipes rather than cut at the back. Im thinking theres 2 ways around it. 1. would be to remove the whole wall of tiles and start...

Apologies for the delay:

Like i said im no pro-tiler. but i cant understand this? Unless the tiles are handmade to the size of the wall i.e fit perfectly from 1 corner to the other, (havent seen them available as yet) surely taking the measurement from the centre to to both sides would always be the best option...

Unfortunately he has been paid for job. Im an idiot and paid him half before i went away and on his call transferred the rest :oops: Im hoping that the slither is that thin i may get away with a bath to ceiling (the tiles go all the way to the ceiling) corner glass shelf. I just cant think...

Thanks for the reply. Im no tiling guru (far from it). it is a window wall and ive measured the tiles. He would have achieved even cuts on both ends had he of started from the middle. It would have also looked more aesthetically pleasing, as its the wall you first look at from the bathroom...

Hi, Ive just had my bathroom tiled by a "supposedly" good tiler. As i work away in Afghanistan i wasnt there to oversee the work. Anyway to cut a long story short, ive got back and found he,s left a thin (maybe 1 inch) sliver of tile in a corner as soon as you walk in, so it sticks out like a...

Apologies, my internets not playing ball tonight, it went off after id pressed submit and subsequently pressed submit again. :oops:

It basically means to roughen the surface (rather than it being smooth) it gives the coating something to cling to.

By the way, im in Northern Ireland....

I have recently been granted planning permission to build a double garage and would welcome any input on what kind of quotes i should be expecting. Firstly i have read the rules regarding quotes, but im just looking for a ball park figure from the more experienced, so im not totally blind...

Ian Plumber, Many thanks for the quick reply mate, found just what i needed :D

Wow, that was a quick reply..... Thank you for the advice i,ll get in touch with the solicitors who i dealt with at the time...As the builder has disappeared of the face of the earth....

Sorry if this question is in the wrong forum: My house is now 2 years old, embarrassingly i have only just vetured into the loft (looking to fit downights in the bathroom). The question is this though, i noticed whilst up there, that the extractor fans from the en-suite and bathroom arent...

Hello, Could someone please advise me if its possible to buy just the flush. Ive recently removed and broken the 2 plastic strips from my own (see attached photos). If it is possible could someone point me in the right direction. http://www.imango.co.uk/files/79/plumbing%20005.JPG...
