    What is the best paint to stop rust on metal gates and railings?
    Metalworkers - 6 answers

    Hello all I have metal gates at the end of my driveway and metal fences and railings around the perimeter of my garden. I have noticed the paint work is beginning to wear and I am concerned about the damage of leaving them exposed to the elements for too long. Is there any paints which can prevent the risks of rust and other wearing on metal like this?

    How can you tell how much weight a wall can hold?
    Handymen - 10 answers

    I wonder if there is a way to tell what a wall can hold without just hanging something and hoping for the best. I’ve inherited a TV bracket to mount the TV on the wall but I’m a bit worried its going to be too heavy. How can I check?

    Does a gas hob need to be fitted by a Gas Safe registered engineer?
    Heating Engineers - 15 answers

    Hello all I am in the process of kitchen renovations at the moment and will need a new gas hob to be installed. I had thought his would be a task only a Gas Safe registered engineer would be able to do legally, however the builder involved in my renovation work tells me that it is a simple change of disconnecting the old hob and reconnecting to the new, so it would be too minor to need a specialist and that he could do it himself. Is this the case, or am I having the wool pulled over my eyes? I’d like to hear from the horse’s mouth on this, from actual engineers.

    When my heating is on the pressure in my Valiant boiler rises to just over 2 Bar from just over 1. Is this normal? The boiler also occasionally cuts out when the heating is on. Is this normal or a simple repair or will it need new parts? Thanks.

    Why have my paving slabs become uneven?
    Gardeners - 10 answers

    In my garden I have some paving slabs, laid a few years ago, which have become increasingly uneven since then. The paving itself seems fine apart from some wearing around the edges. Does anyone know why this happens or how it could be fixed easily? Or even, if anyone knows how I can prevent this happening again in future? I have been told that adding ‘sharp sand’ beneath the slabs to fill beneath can help even it – or would it be best to re-lay the slabs with some new sand underneath? Thanks, Mo
