Hi,

I don't want to rush things and get it all wrong, but once I have coated my bathroom with bonding plaster, how much time will I need before this is dry enough to tile ?

Hi - I'm about to grout a kitchen floor made of natural slate. I've sealed it twice and have flexable grout as everyone recommends. When I grouted the bathroom (same tiles) I made a bit of a mess with them and my wife had to clean them before we finally sealed everything :wink:

Hi

I have clouding around the panes of glass in my wooden patio doors as shown in the attached photo. I cannot remove the clouding - it seems to be inside the glass.

The question is can I route the cable from an existing twin socket (ring) vertically for approx 1m then horizontally ...

Hi, breaking my cherry here with my first post :shock:

have looked at the guides which seem great for making up a stud partition but not for removing them.

I live in a brand new 'corner' filler semi, hence the house is effectively in 2 halves, at 45 degrees to each other. The result is a couple of interestingly shaped rooms. Which we like.

My 'lads lounge' ...

Can anyone recommend a decent heavy duty tool bag? Need it to fit a long spirit level in so has to be about 700mm long. I found some long enough but they all look pretty cheap and probably wouldn't last that long!
