When my heating is on the pressure in my Valiant boiler rises to just over 2 Bar from just over 1. Is this normal? The boiler also occasionally cuts out when the heating is on. Is this normal or a simple repair or will it need new parts? Thanks.
I would like to lay a 16 x 10 shed base as heap as possible. The last year has made finances extremely tight. What is the best way to do this please. I would like to afford to hire someone to help me but it's just not possible at the moment. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'm planning on getting a new kitchen fitted. To maximise on space, I want the back door (standard size, wooden) to be bricked up. How much should I budget for that? Also- is that the work of a bricklayer or builder?
Hi all I am working on building my own brick barbecue at the moment. I have a completed base of concrete and now trying to sort a good mortar mix. I’ve been told to use a ratio of 6:2:1 of sand:lime:cement, but does not seem to have turned out as I had hoped which dries exceptionally quickly and does not bind with the bricks to stick together. Has anyone any advice or suggestions? Should I try a different ratio for the mix?
Hi, I have a glass coffee table top that needs reattaching to its base. I’ve tried using silicone but it doesn’t work. I’ve read that epoxy would be the best glue to be used but that UV light should be used to cure it? I’d appreciate any guidance. Thanks Teri
Hi, I do a decent amount of pointing and I'm just wondering if pointing guns are worth it and if anyone could recommend the best ones?
I wonder if there is a way to tell what a wall can hold without just hanging something and hoping for the best. I’ve inherited a TV bracket to mount the TV on the wall but I’m a bit worried its going to be too heavy. How can I check?
Hi all, I’m looking to install skirting boards along my hallway walls. I have read some mixed messages about using some adhesives for skirting boards online and some recommending to instead have the skirting boards drilled in. Would adhesives be suitable enough for typical hallways? Is there any specific problems I should look out for if I went for the adhesive route? And are there any particular brands I should steer clear of for this? Currently, I have painted walls, which will be dry and there’s not likely much risk of damage day to day – if this makes a difference at all. I’d like to hear what others’ experiences have been using adhesives versus drilled in skirting boards.
