  1. The rear I need some adjustable bolty type things to make it secure . What I hate is that the flimsy IKEA back will wobble as it’s not flush against the wall . Almost tempted to screw osb to the back …. As for that side bit ; how do I scribe some bead to suit the variable gap ??
  2. Could do …….. but he might guess what’s happening as I have 9 flat pack IKEA wardrobes on the floor ???
  3. Got lots of IKEA wardrobes to build ? and bolt together . What do I do about walls being out at the side and rear . Do I pack the rear out ? What about that side gap . Beading it won’t make it any better as it will be on the wee also …
  4. Yes . I was more concerned about the min size hatch regs - if there were any ???! ???
  5. That supports the end of the wardrobe ? It’s part of 4 all bolted together . Can’t run it the other way either . Not sure of the point of the hatch anyway . It’s a straight run flue so nothing serviceable in it ….
  6. Got my flue in with access hatch all good . Unfortunately the fitted wardrobe will literally end slap bang in the middle of the hatch ? What are the regs on this ? Hatch size I mean ? . Presumably it’s just so a carbon monoxide test could be done in the flue ? Can I wardrobe across the opening ? ( removing the hatch door of course. But access for a monoxide test still do able .
  7. I use fibaro rgbw2 ‘s ( make sure it’s that version ) for rgbw led control ;no issue . How do you intend to use these lights ? I.e how are they controlled ? ( wall switch , HA. ? )
  8. This is click bait ! Worked for me though !
  9. I put a lever valve - much easier to turn . Outside I also have a non return valve as water company insisted on one as we were going to have rainwater harvesting. That plan was binned though as ROI was around a billion years
  10. Conversion to flats ? . With an underground house in the grounds ?
  11. Buy it . I’ll lend you the money
  12. Same problem. When I’m in the bathroom sometimes I miss the toilet. - straight in the bath trap . Never dries out now ; but does smell a bit funny .
  13. I assumed my sparky would do this but he didn’t . His logic is if there’s faulty wiring you’re going to find it either way . So he just wired everything up and powered on . I did all the wiring so tbh was expecting an issue like a screw through a cable - nothing - perfect I’m so multi talented even I’m surprised ?
  14. I get called that a lot . When people see me they say “ Oh God ! “ ?
  15. No need now. All corners done. I'll get plasterer to fix it next time he's in
  16. Don't you dare get my squiffy thread locked!
  17. Nothing wrong with my tool .
  18. Yes , yes ! You buy me the Aico ones ?
  19. Sure .
  20. This seems to say yes https://www.aico.co.uk/standard_regulation/fire-building-regulations/ The wireless aspect isn’t the real cost . As you can get battery fed wireless ones for 30 quid a pop
  21. So do they HAVE to be mains ? Can I have battery but wirelessly connected ?
  22. Thinking about this . Can I just have battery powered wireless interlinked alarms ? Much cheaper . Doesn’t require a sparky to install them . I can just ignore my power cable to each alarm point then . Regs in a domestic new build aren’t it *has* to be mains powered are they ??
  23. He’s long gone . Booked up now until next year ! . When I need more plastering I’ll get it fixed then .
  24. They were cut before plastering . Were all good . But once he’s plastetered over most of them I guess the electrician ‘struggled’ to cut them out straight . I left sparky to it - so didn’t see until all done
  25. It was . Plasterer changed it ?
