  • Water tank removal

    Can someone let me know the cost of removing a water tank from the airing cupboard outside the bathroom please. There is already a Combi boiler in the property. Also, I have been told that the Combi boiler which is fairly new, is housed in a bedroom cupboard, is this safe ? Would appreciate your help thank you.

    Shower not staying hot

    My shower keeps running cold on me. It heats up alright at first but then goes cold after about 30 seconds to a minute. I have tried turning it up but I can't turn it up much more. Do I need a new one? How much is a new electric shower?

    Do log burning fires need a chimney liner inserted?

    Hello, I have a log burner fire installed in my home with a plate fitted above it also. When the fire is burning, the chimney breast does get very hot and there are some occasional crackling noises. Due to this I am considering a chimney liner to try help resolve this. Does my log burning fire need a chimney flue liner and will it make much difference to the heat on the chimney breast? Is my fire still safe to use in the meantime?

    Sanitary Sealant

    Hi - I've often found in commercial premises that the sealant used around showers and kitchen worktops is thicker than the standard sealant you might purchase for domestic premises. I'd describe the product as a rubberised solid type sealant once set. Does anyone know what this product is and where it can be purchased? Thanks

    Water streaming onto conservatory

    There is water streaming onto the conservatory from a far plastic pipe (near guttering) on the roof outside at the back. It's a semi-detached house. Is there any reason this could be an issue with my home, or is it a problem for the neighbours?

    Can I move the water cylinder to the attic?

    I own a top floor apartment with an attic. All electric with a large cold-over-hot water cylinder and pump in the hotpress. I need to move the water cylinder and pump, in order to convert the hotpress into a soundproof booth. We'd like a new cylinder too, since the one we have only provides enough hot water for 1/3 of a bathful. It is probably very unwise to mount a cylinder on the joists, as they are not thick enough. There are blockwork walls at both ends of the attic. Could a horizontal cylinder be mounted on a blockwork wall safely, if the right fixings and brackets are drilled far enough in?
