Hi Stem, A big thank you! You were correct it was a faulty zone valve. I replaced it and now the system is running fine! All the best!

Thanks again Stem for your help. I thought I would post an update! I gave the two valves a wiggle. They both seemed half loose and half with tension as if I was opening a valve. This was when the thermostat was sending a signal to the boiler... As a follow on with the same issue...

Thanks so much Stem, that is incredibly helpful! I will have a look at those valves in relation to the communication with the thermostat. I will let you know what I find shortly!

Hi All, Thanks. so much in advance for any and all help and advice on this. I have booked a boiler engineer but thought I would see if anyone had some thoughts on this. Our heating system has two zones. Underfloor heating on the ground floor and radiators on the first floor. These zones...

Well, the heating engineer found the problem! Wire had been chewed by...something... He replaced the wires and the hot water is back on. Now we need to figure out how a...something...(probably a mouse?) got into the boiler! The house is very sealed. New windows and doors. The only way in...

Thanks everyone. I dug a little deeper on the LPA page for our application...looked under images...the last of which was a photocopy of the letter which should have been sent to us. I don't want to try everyone's patience but could you confirm that when they say 'host' property they are...

Thanks everyone for your responses. The letter could very well have been lost in the post. Which is why I will give them a ring. The Planning Portal is very clear about coorespondance in regards to a refusal: 'If the authority refuses permission or imposes conditions, it must give written...

Hello Everyone, What a great forum and thanks for any and all help! A couple quick questions... The LPA reached a decision regarding our plans in April but we never received a letter! We didn't even know it was refused until today when I checked the website. What should I do? Give them a...

Thanks IT8480, Yes, I think I will try and speak with the planning officer myself. All we want is some feedback and the chance to make changes, if needed, prior to a decision being made.

Hi Woody, Thanks much for your input. The determination date passed in early March. So we are well passed that. How do you know that changes are required without the LPA telling you? ... Exactly my point. Thank you. The language of the Planning Portal is very transparent to me so when the LPA...

Hello and thanks for any advice!! We had our planning application validated early January. LPA deadline was mid-March. Our architect tried to contact the planning officer to discuss the application before they made the decision and was told to pay another fee to talk about the application. On...

We are looking to install two new windows. The two windows are next to each other externally but separated by a wall internally. There is no brickwork between the two windows rather a panel which matches the window frames. What do you call this panel in between the two windows? Or is the...

Thanks for any and all help. I am replacing the glass on several sash windows. I've removed the windows the glass and gotten them very clean of the old putty and paint. I've painted the rebate with PVA and allowed it to dry over night. I am ready with the new linseed putty and brands but I...
