Kitchen is looking fantastic!😊

The idea of using screws with rubber sleeving is a good idea. I've replaced a mirror and it was held in place with clips on the top and bottom instead of silicon to hold it to the wall. What do you think of using some clips at the top to keep the glass from falling out? If you got or painted the clips so that they were the same colour as the glass then the clips would be difficult to see.

Having just viewed a cottage that was constructed in 1803, this video was a perfect example of what I'd be looking at doing. My plans, if we do buy, would be insulate, ventilate, make it breathable and I'm improve airtightness. Bash in solar and ASHP and it'd be lovely.

I fitted a large mirror in my bathroom, but I didn't realise that because the mirror is fitted to an external wall, when the mirror steams up it shows where the silicon is. In hindsight I would have fixed some insulated plasterboard first.

Please please please DON'T put any sealants between cookers and worktops or splashbacks. It's a FREESTANDING appliance and as a whitegoods eng I see them glued all the time. For cleaning and maintenance please leave it freestanding

A splashback made from and matching your worktop would have looked miles better and blended in with your upstands

can you do a video on how to install an electric gate?

Arr, bless your cotton socks for pretending you might want to change the splashback in the future when we all know you'll do what the boss wants when she wants. 😂

Looks great

Dob and dab silicone is deffenly the way to go. Line siliconing might not make contact if the wall is uneven. Another important choice, as you pointed out, is using low modular silicone. The regular cheaper stuff can and will destroy electrical components, i.e., extraction fan or some oven components from the silicone vapour

Not concerned about anything going down the gap between the oven and the splashback?

Great

This is a great video but I’m slightly confused at the beginning of the video, if you have a single brick or maybe double brick home, is it better/ easier to insulate from the outside? 😊

Can you sent me to the right video to change the lower door seal, please and thank you. I love your educative video

Brilliant nice video to watch and has given me the answer its 2am and ive got my answer how to hang my towel radiator on a plaster board wall.

This is a brilliant tip! I am going to get those screws for sure!

Osmo Review: I decided to go for the Osmo oil to achieve higher quality and quicker drying time. Osmo supposedly offers better coverage, up to 24 sq/m per liter, which is significantly more than the rest, which would work also price-wise. However, as per the small print, if the wood is quite thirsty, you will not get that coverage. I bought the 2.5 liters thinking it would be enough for my 23 sqm 3 year old dec k, for two coats. Unfortunately, it was not enough to treat it even once. The result is good, yet now I have to buy another 2.5lt for a second coat, which significantly ups the budget. Another parameter to consider is that while most other oils can be easily found in your nearby hardware store, Osmo is not so easy to find in physical stores, which means you will need to order it. This didn’t work for me since I wanted to apply the first coat in the morning and the second in the evening (to get it done before it started raining, so I wouldn’t have to clear and move the furniture again). So when the first coat consumed the whole tin, I couldnt just go to the store and buy another one on the day - I had to order for next day. So, you might want to order more and then return any unused product. I have yet to apply the second coat, but so far, it looks nice. I don’t have the knowledge to compare it to other products. The Osmo cleaning brush is worth the money - great tool to clean the deck! The oil application brush, makes application really easy. Thank you very much for the video!

Thanks

An absolutely useless system. Installed throughout the entire house 2 years ago, ​6 radiators, ​extra thermostat​ ​controler, and signal extenders. This system is very inaccurate​ in result ​you have to cold or to hot house, resulting in a waste of money on extra heating costs in addition to the system itself. It's worth mentioning that it was installed by a certified plumber. The batteries run out very quickly; you'll need to replace them 3-4 times a year. The app is glitchy all the time. I deeply regret purchasing it; it's a waste of money and time. Now I have a completely useless system that I HAVE TO REMOVE and RETURN BACK TO THE OLD FASHIONED THERMOSTAT. I'VE LOST THOUSANDS OF POUNDS.

Charlie. Have you made a list of parts for your dust collection bag setup. Thanks

No film forming paints, mind! No wallpaper. Fine for me but for everyone?

Really helpful. My job is much simpler -replacing a broken kitchen cupboard hinge, but this video helped me understand how it all works

Something else I have learnt. Diy'er. Thanks.

I have found this a confusing topic and am considering using Breathaplasta Thermal Insulating Plaster. Have you heard of this? Claims to improve u value by 60% and breathable. Any thoughts?

Really good video. Thank you very much. Subscribed.

Stuff i already known but good video as always.

Who is Z man..does he have a channel as well mate

How have these held up Charlie? This is my first attempt at making mock shaker style doors full length about 240cm for a tall wardrobe. Don't have a router to make the traditional way. Have seen other videos of people doing similar with 12mm board and 6mm rails and stiles and people have said they've started warping after a short wile due to only one side holding the weight of rails and stiles, and also due to the pva (perbaps water in it) and not using MR MDF. I am planning to use 18mm regular mdf with 6mm rails and stiles.

Great advice thanks very much...

Hi Charlie Are the led strips mains or low voltage Off transformer?? Great video as always full of tips information for us diy ers

Aha ! we have roller blinds in the recess of our double glazed windows. That answers that issue of heavy condesation :)

Never thought about recycling the spirits..clever that..class video.😊

Your kitchen floor before the George was disgusting, like lazy pigs lived there, but the George did a superb job...

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love how you explain it all so simply.

Hi I love your video. We live in a council flat and have hot pipes on the external wall leading to radiators we are getting mould behind the pipes on the wall ovbs heat hitting a cold wall but what can we do to stop it ?

Great videos charlie thank you so much they are amazing

Excellent video Charlie

Hi Charlie - another great video, thank you. Question, how did you mount the kitchen wall cabinets with such a big gap between the inside wall and solid brick walls? I want to do something similar but all i can think is to add some noggins in the stud wall where the cabinets will go. I don't really want to add wooden sheets across the whole surface. Thanks.

Thank you for that. I'll go and gather up my tools and get the job done

Absolutely the best

Can I paint over the mould paint with regular emulsion so my entire room is the same colour?

Is mdf better to use than ply

Thank you so much for this, im looking to fill in the gap between the pipes for my flooring

Great video with common sense advice. I only have a splitting Maul, which I’ve owned for many years. I find no need for anything else. For seriously knotted wood, I get the chainsaw out. I’m 60 years old and find log splitting, a great workout.

Great video, job done. Thank you 😊

So glad my husband sent me this, not because I have a clue about any of the tech stuff, but because we have just instructed a contractor to build an extension. We’re having a Tom Howley kitchen, usual open planning living and I’m desperate to get the lighting right as we can’t do this twice ££££🙄 Where do I go for a lighting designer please or does Pho(??) offer that to people who buy their products? Thanks so much!

Now that was very informative. Condensation in our house has been awful this year compared to others. My heating has been on low..about 18degrees due to costs. I did not know that warmer air will hold the humidity and in turn reduce condensation. This has given me lots to think about. Thankyou so much :)
