Hi all. I am about to have my new kitchen installed but am a bit confused by integrated microwave sizes. The unit is a tall (2340 mm) oven and appliance housing. So is it simply a matter of overall size - the legs (150 mm) which leaves 2190 mm. Then take off the doors and the oven...

I'm converting a car port which used to house the front door (with side light) so there will now need to be a standard 30" internal door there, but there also needs be a step down in to the new room as levels differ. Is a standard 32" door frame that includes a (preferably hardwood) threshold...

Easydrive seem to be a bit shy of providing hole spec.. The 6x100 have 6mm thread diameter, slightly unsurprisingly (with 4.8mm shank). They're going in to a concrete blockwork wall. Is there a general rule for hole sizes? Thank you Dain

Hi, My kitchen ceramic tap is constantly dripping. It makes a loud annoying whistling noise, which suggests that it's an actual water pressure issue. I opened the kitchen tap and checked the cartridge, the black rubber washer is slightly damaged, so I think it would be good to replace this as...

Hello, Having some roof work done. Scaffolds are up so looking (in addition to various work on the roof) to get a liner put in my front chimney by the roofers. It will be a single skin liner for a gas fire. Won’t be used for other fuel types. The old Gas fire was disconnected before I bought...
