    • fixing a toilet that is leaking after being flushed
    Plumbers - 10 answers

    There is water leaking out my toilet. It seems to be dripping out shortly after being flushed. How can I find out what exactly the issue is? And what can I do to fix it? Will I need to hire a plumber or is this the sort of work that can be done DIY?

    Builder not adhered to Building Regulations
    Builders - 10 answers

    I am wanting to know where I stand when a builder does not adhere to Building regulations? I have had a garage conversion done and the builder has not followed the architectural plans so now my conversion has not passed building regs and is unwilling to come and put the failures to rights. He is demanding the final payment for completion when the job has not been completed.

    Using cooker socket for a different appliance
    Electricians - 14 answers

    I’ve just bought a portable induction hob from Ikea as a temporary replacement for my freestanding cooker, but am wondering if it is okay to plug this into the cooker socket with the red switch, or should I just plug it into a normal socket? Just want to check before I plug it in.

    How difficult is it to change to a mixer tap?
    Bathroom Specialists - 5 answers

    I have two sets of taps in my bathroom (sink & bathtub) and would like to replace both of them with new mixer taps – for easier use and due to the taps’ age and wearing. I would to prefer to install these myself if possible, as I’ve had some experience with tap installation in the past. Are there any major changes that I will need to take into account beyond the piping of the hot and cold water to the single tap? Anyone with any experiences of installing mixer taps would be appreciated.

    How do I remove and replace a toilet seat?
    Handymen - 12 answers

    Hello I have a damaged bathroom toilet seat which I need to remove to be replaced. I remember from previous houses’ toilets that there are usually screws fixing it into the toilet unit itself, but I don’t know how to reach this section to unscrew the seat. Is there any method that will apply to toilet seats? And am I right to assume that the new seat can just be screwed into the same sections of the toilet unit too? Or is there any additional steps to include?

    Cost of cleaning a flat at the end of tenancy?
    Cleaners - 11 answers

    Hi all, I am a landlord to several flats and I am interested in hiring cleaning services for the flats when tenants have left the flat. How much does it typically cost for a single flat to be cleaned at the end of a tenancy? Could there be any discounts for multiple flats that need cleaning? If rates are reasonable, I would consider having a more regular cleaning service to keep flats in good order.

    Do I need lead flashing on my roof?
    Roofers - 12 answers

    Hello, I have no lead flashing on my artificial slate roof, but have been told there are lead soakers. My local roofer says lead flashing isn’t a requirement for this roof type. Does anyone know if I should have lead flashing on my roof? I have some concern that some leaks on a ceiling-adjacent wall could be related to this, or perhaps the soakers aren’t effective enough. Any info would be appreciated – thanks Gordon

    Are paint pads better than using a normal paint roller for walls and ceilings?
    Painters & Decorators - 10 answers

    Hello I am undergoing some redecoration of a bedroom at the moment. Recently we have replastered the walls and applied a first coat to the walls. Afterwards, we will be applying a second coat to the walls, then some minor repainting work on the ceiling afterwards. I have been told that using paint pads can provide a more even finish and are less messy to use, than normal paint rollers. Has anyone had any past experience of using both to compare? An even coat is my main priority with this, so if I can manage this with less mess using the paint pads, I’ll be keen to try them out.
