  1. Wisely I installed one of these so I can drain the outlet pipe from macerator . Had a few times where I need to drain it . Problem is this cap leaks - it’s just a screw cap with a washer . I’ve tightened with grips but can’t really go any further . Are all end caps equal ? . Nothing I can smear round the thread that will make a water tight seal but won’t glue the cap on !!? . I did think of plumbers tape - but it’s too awkward to get to …
  2. Ffs . These are the ‘professionals’ yes . (expletive deleted) me … 😵‍💫
  3. Replace . Is op planning to tile this floor ? I.e no chance of ‘easily’ fixing later if a leak …
  4. I’d crane that in . Have before . Otherwise it’s a heavy mofo situation
  5. Acro props . Cheap to buy - with some wedges so they don’t drift . I had to do this for a large concrete ceiling . Rather than hire 50 of them I bought them . Left them in situ for 3 months - SE said 1 month was enough . But you know ….
  6. Looks like someone dropped their nuts through the floor twice .

  7. @nod this type of thing ?
  8. So clean any grit etc off then just spray the entire track ? ( not just the wheel runners ) .
  9. Sliding doors at the rear have become very difficult to open. I assume grit etc. is causing the issue. How should I clean this to get a smooth action again?; just tip water over track to flush out grit?; wd 40? Cheers
  10. Could possibly be worth renting something - having all the bills there in wife’s/ husbands name . If the VAT outweighs the rental costs . What a tangled web we weave when we first deceive.
  11. Far too neat for my liking
  12. Can’t husband wife build the houses “ individually “ and claim self build each ? . Or be in the action of “ splitting up “ - did this many years ago to get a better mortgage deal …
  13. Just a thermostatic mixer off the UVC. Plenty of power ; no issues ( with shower or uvc/ashp for that matter ).
  14. Build it live ? more like build it (expletive deleted)ed This why they have a picture of a cock ?
  15. (expletive deleted) that ! . That’s mental ! Talk about accident potentially about to happen ! . Jesus !
  16. Flexi’s can fail for no obvious reason . Agree some must be better than others . Now ( after experience ) I only use flexi where I have too - do a visual inspection every 12 months for any sign of decay / leak . My new kitchen I installed copper rod fittings . I feel happier about that .

    Dimmer issues

    Checked it just now and it’s off ! Turned it on off a few times and was fine …
  18. Yeah - a pita . changed all IP’s instead .Messed up lots of things - but almost back to 100% now …

    Dimmer issues

    Just installed a new dimmer . Never noticed this so assume the problem wasn’t there after install . Turn lights off ; 1 light stays a bit on . Notice it’s last and first to power up before the others . Led failing ?? Photo of lights off
  21. Take my new robot vac . Couldn’t get it to connect to my WiFi. No idea of the issue - no error message except fail Googling … only apparently connects to 2.4gz not 5 . Mines both with band steering . So I disable 5ghz - still doesn’t work . How would you explain how to do that to someone without a lot of detail ? Google more . Apparently for reasons unknown doesn’t like a router address of 192.168.8.1 - exactly what I have . So I change that ; which naturally breaks everything else . Explaining how to do that would be very difficult if the person you are explaining it to is just following your commands . That thought gets it working ! - shame everything else is bust though due to router IP change …
  22. No it’s not difficult. But that depends on your knowledge and understanding of these things . People think sometimes you can write a step by step guide that you just follow . But you can’t ; as there are plenty of unknowns and what ifs . Router config , firewall , ip address setup etc. etc. There are video guides online . But again if there’s any variation in what you have to the video and you’re simply copying the steps ; then it might require a fuller understanding.
