How can I go about testing whether my toilet is leaking? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Hello I've just had a new driveway put in my 1930's semi and in areas it slopes towards the house. We went with a reputable company and apart from the slope towards the house in places they've done a really good job. As it's 1930's its suspended timber floors so I don't want water flooding underneath it and giving us damp and root in the house. The gradient isn't massive, but it's enough to mean water runs the wrong way towards the house in places We are where we are, clearly lots of issues above. I guess what I need to know what are my options now to rectify this? Couple of suggestions below: 1. Get the company/someone else to angle grind the drive up and retro fit some drainage channels that take the water away (can this be done? how neat can it be done retrospectively)? 2. Fit some sort of thin tile/sloped tile on top of the edging and seal it all like mad so it creates a runaway channel towards the flower bed on the left of some photos TIA BH
Hi, we recently moved into our current house. The bathroom has now an awful sewer smell. On inspection we found it to be coming from the shower drain (walk in shower - tiled floor). I lifted the grill and saw no water seal - no sitting pool of water - and it looks like the shower trap has been removed. Water flows directly down and so it looks like the smell is coming directly from the sewer. My newborn sleeps close by and so my wife is very worried now! However, I have no idea how to get this fixed/replaced as I can't find the brand name on any of the bathroom fixtures. Any help/advice hugely appreciated....
The cost for a new timber stable type door and frame to replace existing door and frame
Hi there, I bought a Hob and Cooker package from Argos: https://www.argos.co.uk/product/9343366?clickPR=plp:1:3 On the website, it stated that the cooker is hardwired. When I received this, it came with a standard plug, however the hob itself has a hardwire connection to it. My connection for this, is meant to be hardwired in - with a 6mm, 32amp connection for it. I am based in South London. My question is: 1) Can the hob (6400W) and the oven (2100-2500w) be connected to the same outlet? 2) Is there anyway to remove the plug from the oven and have this hard wired? 3) How much would this likely cost? Thank you
How much would it cost to have a sliding door fitted in my bathroom? Still needs to be able to lock in some way.
There are so many brands and I have no idea what actually matters. Think I'm maybe even more confused than when I started! Just after something reliable that isn't cheap and breaks in a year. Any recommendations?
Hi We would like to have my garden fenced. We worked out that we would need 4 fences on the right Side , 7 fences at the back , 5 fences on the left side and 3 at the front plus a gate ( 6ft fences ). Plus wooden post. We are trying to work out the budget to have it done or to do it ourselves. Thanks
