Beading - Non flat edge

Hiya, I need to nail some beading to the corners of an opening (used to be the external door until the extenstion was added) but the edges are not straight. Basically there are a few small arcs down the edge which means the beading would be floating in those sections. The top and bottom bits are OK ...

MK Grid System

Hiya, Looking to use this in the kitchen for all the under worktop appliances, but looking at the installation instructions i'm unsure how it goes in. I'm thinking it was something along the lines of fused spurs... you have the ring main into and out of the switch, then another t&e cable to an o...

RSJ

Hiya, We're planning on doing the kitchen/dining room in the next few weeks and part of that is opening out the archway between the 2. I've just taken a few chunks of plaster off to see how far the existing one goes and it's not enough (it's a bit of timber at the moment anyway). So, I reckon I need...

Bury Junction Box

Nuisance Tripping

Hiya, Over the last couple of days I have been having my RCD trip out, which in turn disables my breakers for the cooker, shower, upstairs ring and downstairs ring. It first happened on Friday evening and wouldn't come back on. I unplugged everything from ALL sockets and left over night. Woke up in ...

Evening Courses

Hiya,

Are there any evening courses available in the South East area that anyone knows of - I have looked everywhere but can only find intensive week long courses.

Also what is the best one to do..?

Thanks/...

Re-painting Outside

Hi, What is the best way to re-paint the outside of a pebble-dashed house. We are planning on changing the colour to most probably magnolia (it's current a very badly painted, faded green). I'm undecided between using a big brush or a sprayer, but will any sprayers accept weatherproof masonry paint ...

Adding external extensions/lighting

Hi, I have added extension sockets/light siwtches and fixings to a ring main (and properly as well!) on internal wiring, but not done external wiring. Basically I want to put a weather-proof shed in the back garden for an extra fridge, freezer and tumble dryer, as well as a double weather-proof sock...
