Has anyone ever fitted a two panel hinge screen like this type?

Thanks for the detailed reply. It was fitted after the reveals were boarded. How much bigger would the V need to cut? I will try this method. Although I’ll still probably hash it up anyway.

Anyone any experience with the Kudos 2 panel folding bath screen? Are they prone to leaking. Saw this video on YouTube and putting me off buying it. It would be a problem solver for me if I works the way it supposed to.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of cutting it flush with the reveal like you have suggested. I wonder would it be difficult to get out the remaining sections that the plasterboard are sitting on without too much damage

Hi guys, I’ve a plastic window board I’d like to replace with a mdf board. Is it possible to replace it without damaging the reveals? How would I go about it? Ideally I’d like as little damage as possible as it walls were recently painted.

My radiator was leaking for 24 hours on my new laminate floor and seeped under mdf skirting boards. would a dehumidifier dry out the water under the laminate and skirting boards? I really don't want to lift the floor and skirting boards, but i worry about mould forming behind skirting and underneath floor.

I don’t have a long enough level to check it. Is it possible that a new door frame is bowed? Would it be caused by poor fitting? thanks

Hey folks I had a Upvc door replaced as it was “bowed” and wasn’t compressing against the frame enough to seal it. I’ve just noticed my new door has exactly the same issue as the old door. I’m wondering now is it a fitting issue instead of a faulty door. It’s tight at the top and bottom but not in the middle. I’ve cam rollers adjusted fully tight but the new door still isint compressing tight enough. I find it odd that the new door has an identical problem to the old one. Anyone know if this is an easy fix? p

Hi Marvin, thanks for taking the time to reply was very helpful information. You’re right about the instructions I think id struggle installing that to be honest. What screens do you recommend? My shower is very high pressure and the problem I have is, a normal 800 wide screen will not keep water in the bath. I can’t use a wider one as the toilet is at the end of the bath and this could be a hazard climbing out of the bath due to so little space. Here’s a photo of another bathroom to give you an idea. I’ve less space than this. Thanks for your help

Anyone ever fitted one of these? Do you know if there any good? I’ve been told bath screens are famous for leaking?

Hi folks I have had a new door fitted and the guys that did it weren’t the best. The house is owned by a housing assoocation and they don’t care too much about there houses to be honest. I’ve attached pics of the way it was fitted. it’s a Upvc door set and they fitted flush to the vertical battons no problem there. Then they propped up the bottom of the door which has a low threshold attached to it with a Batton. They didn’t use a sill. told me didn’t need one and batton will do the job. Is this done correctly? As it’s a bit draughty I’d love to improve it to be more airtight.

Is it ok to seal around multilayer pipe with silicone sealant? I read on uponor's website that you should not use silicone sealant on there multilayer pipes as it can damage the pipe. I've sealed loads of pipe penetrations in my house with silicone and never knew this.

Good afternoon lads, I'm preparing to install some outdoor Poe Cameras. I've some spare conduit/ducting going through my wall, its inside a box on the side of my house and ends up under my stairs were my ethernet cables terminate. could i use this ducting for my camera cables? would save me from drilling a hole through the house, im planning on having the nvr in there anyway. I'm wondering how i would get the cables inside the outdoor box though without it looking like crap?
