Hello all..
I have just reversed into someone in my works van whilst on a job.
I expect it'll be around £300 for me to pay as I don't want to go through the insurance route. Does anyone know if I can put this down as a work expense?
Cheers.
Not quite convinced about Led flood lights , installed some about 5 year ago , let’s say 5* 120 W , rough cost £700 at that time , replaced them today at a cost of £500 roughly (price of fittings only) the lights tam light CEF specials not my choice , they don’t really seem maintable , yes...

Have been working in a building installing emergency lighting. Was taken back by the size of the Main Intake Room. Biggest Intake Room I've ever been in!
Like to see other people's pics and experiences of any other interesting buildings etc.

Hello - I am,as you will notice new here. I hope that I can get some definitive answers that are clearer than I get on-line and talking to 'those who talk the talk but know little'!
I have given up on trying to correlate teenage girls and their complete lack of understanding why light switches...
To the home automation install guys, how much additional cost would this be on a new house.? New build 3 bed for example if normal rewire would cost say 5K how much would full home automation system cost.? Cheers
Hi guys, been asked to give a quote on testing pull cord facilities in retirement homes but have no idea what the Base rate roughly is for doing this?
Each bungalow has a small main unit (tynetec), bathroom pull cord, smoke alarm attached and the wireless pendant for residents.
If anyone can...
Evening all,
Unfortunately no picture on this scenario until I move into my new house on the 25th, so hopefully my words do it justice.
The house that I am moving into has a small area underneath the stairs that we would ideally (eventually) like to make into a toilet as the house is single...
Looking at ways to survive post 2015, and remembered a possible project we'd looked at a while back for a housing association in flats with all electric storage heating, which means that solar pv qualifies for ECO funding under the HHCRO stream.
But I can't find any guidance on how to calculate...

Upstairs I have 2 rooms, of which each has 1 single socket in. I'd like 4 double sockets in the main room, and 4 in the second.
I've been recommended to get a new circuit wired in for...

Planning the forum app.
It'll use the Tapatalk core system, but their unbranded version. I've paid for it for years but haven't used it yet.
We have a couple of options. It'll need to pay for itself somehow.
Please vote.
Discuss as you wish. But I'll be looking at the outcome of the poll...
