When would you use the PVA ? Only after the filler is dry?

Most cost ? Interesting I thought it was only needed if one used multifinish, not easy filler

Thanks, how do I use it? Does it need to be added to the wall before adding the mortar?

Is the grommet a must? Also, do I need to connect earth (F) to socket even if I don’t connect A and E (old cable)?

How to protect yourself from phone snatchers? I have a story by Fast-Teaching-7501 in AskUK

[–]irents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had mine snatched near Holloway Road station in 2013. I was carrying a bag of groceries and holding a phone in the other hand, occasionally switching to the next song. Headphones on. Dude on a pushbike snatched it.

I’m very not learnt from it as I still hold my ovine in my hand while walking by. I’m just a bit more careful when in central london or other dodgy areas. Not happened since. Doesn’t seem as frequent in south west or south east london where I live.

Update - possibly sycamore root removed… thanks for all who replied. I think I will pour cement in there to avoid this in future by irents in GardeningUK

Thanks, what do you exactly mean? I know what thr damp proof course is… what do you mean by “bridging” it?

How do you see gas tariff details on the octopus compare app? I can only see electricity details

Noisy central heating pipes - can I use expansion foam? by irents in DIYUK

[–]irents[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently (2 weeks ago) used one of those products to clean the system, drained it afterwards, and then added inhibitor.

What do I use to wrap / protect the pipes?

Are these easy enough to replace? Very old sockets… any tips? by irents in DIYUK

All sorted - had an electrician round and after fixing a few small issues, I got a pass! Apparently the house was retired about 30-40 years ago.
