A question about : boiler timer stops (loosing time)

Hi

For the past week ive noticed my boiler for GCH is not coming on the time ive set it to come. its a valiant combi boiler ecotech with a mechanical timer ones with pins you move in and out to set time etc.

Ive noticed its loosing about 30-40 mins. as the time is always 30-40mins behind after 24 hours?

its set to come on at 6am, I check in the morning at 6.10am today to see the time on it was 5.40..after fixing the time I checked it again this eve at 6.20 pm and again the time was 5.45...

Name that coving profile

A question about : Name that coving profile

I'm currently renovating a small 2 bed victorian terrace (circa 1880) and would like to repair/replace the coving as we move into 'making good' stage... currently we have a weird mix of coving styles in different rooms, and a lot of it looks to have been repaired (very poorly) at some stage.

I'm wandering wether the coving seen here might be the original coving:

Seen a place I like...1 bed flat that I hope to offer on.

But I need to make some changes. I don't have the time or skill for DIY so ill get professionals in.

As a guide I want to

- change laminate flooring in lounge and small hall to wood veneer

- change carpet in bedroom to wood veneer

- remove carpet from bathroom floor to tiles. ..no idea of colours. ..suggestions welcome. ..and then most likely replace with new toilet sink and bath

Redring Slimline 650 Shower Dripping

A question about : Redring Slimline 650 Shower Dripping

We recently moved into a new house and the shower constantly drips water from behind the hose. OH has had a look inside it today and says it is leaking from the pressure switch. I did a little research and a lot of these problems are caused by a blown PRV, OH says it isn't that but I asked how does he know what a blown PRV looks like.

Any hekp appreciated. Don't want to go out and buy a new shower if it's fixable.

It's an electric shower
