  • Installing a Chimney Cooker Hood

    Do I need to have a socket above the cooker on the wall for the the wires? The cooker hood does not come with a plug. I have two sockets on both sides of the cooker on the wall. Would like to avoid seeing any wires or leads. What sort of work would be required to get this fitted and how much would this cost.

    Roof and lining problem and air brick.

    Hi, Having water ingress to upstairs box room via an air brick / vent from the roof. Looks like the roof lining material above the air brick is rotten or broken away and water is coming in around or through the tiles onto what seems to be just a tile on top of the air brick cavity hole. It is then soaking into the wall and entering the box room. There are also a couple of small punctures in the roof lining in that are but further back into the loft a little which also leak. It's almost like the tiles are having no effect. The air vent is troubling as it just has a tile as the top of the cavity ( is that normal?). Would we have to take all the tiles off and reline everything on that side of the roof or can just the bottom tiles and lining be replaced?
