    New Electric Oven

    Hi all, My old oven packed up over Christmas so I ordered a new one. The old oven was simply plugged into a socket on the wall. The new oven is 4030W and the existing hob 4050W, the existing hob is wired into the mains, both oven and existing hob are on the same CU circuit. I have been quoted £350 for a new cable 10mm cable into the CU (around 5m from the oven), installation of new switch and connecting the oven up. Does this sound about accurate? Thanks in advance!

    Can you apply new silicone sealant over old bathroom sealant without removing it first?

    The old silicone sealant was an absolute pain to remove before we put in new stuff last time. Can I skip that step and just apply a new layer over the old so it looks a bit fresher? Or do I really need to rip out the old stuff first?
