It's a b**tard to feed! It takes 3 wheelbarrow fulls of sticks a day. It is a great thing, was in the house when we bought it. Works all the radiators and does the hot water too. There is a maze of plumbing in the loft. Bought an artic load of trees and got a guy with a processor to cut and split them, Good days work, but no more f**kin about with the power saw. By the time you fuel up the saw, keep the blade sharp, buy 2 stroke, etc etc...it worked out better doing it that way. One days Graft and it was all over. Saved a Tankfull (1200Ltr) of Gas last winter, so load of sti

Cheers again folks, Personally leaning towards a washing machine related issue Myself. Hoping it's not drains as they were all new, and the fact that it's only now and again that's confusing me. Doesn't tie in with when washing machine is on / off, either tho.????

Extension was built by reputable Tradesman....F. West contractors...?.They've never been back in touch about the snagging list..

What's the output of your stove? If they're over a certain amount you have to have a certain vent fitted to the room allow air into it. It's law in England and Wales, don't know about Scotland because the laws are different when it comes to stoves.. It's about 20Kw I believe, she's a big one! When I discussed it with the chimney sweeping manny, he thought it may be onto the better fitting / sealing windows, and thought it may need an additional vent. Suppose the quick test for that would be to sit with a window open.

Cheers Folks, I'll get Mrs Me to start working her way through your theories, working from cheapest fix 1st.

Be good wee dog that Pedigree and the works?

We have had Chimney swept. Thinking there's a problem in there somewhere causing the soot to get behind the boiler tanks. Never even heard of soot box 'till about a week ago. Current stove is a cracker, and not keen on forking out for a new one. Cheers,

I suppose the answer is 'Because they can'. Silly f**kers keeping them going.... Get a few 'trials' etc under your belt, and you could well be right.

You may have something there! I'll have to take a look. Unfortunately, I'm not even in the country just now, never mind the house! The sh*t that I sit and think about when we're not busy... I have mentioned the washing machine to Mrs Me before now, but as it never seems to be shut off, we were reluctant to believe it was the culprit! I'll get Mrs me to try what you have suggested. Cheers It will be something on those lines,first one though is find where washing machine connects to waste pipe if the grey pipe from it drops into the 1/12 pipe even if there's a trap on it ta

caustic soda is the dogs just watch ye don't roast the pipes, or put it in a blocked drain. Heavy Duty that..........Maybe give 'Mr. Muscle' a go 1st.

Should be a quick fix then

Na, It's out through the wall, fairly sure. But even thogh, why just sometimes? It can be ok for days / weeks even, then we get a spell of it? F**KING annoying.......and stinkin'!

It would have to be a dead MOOSE the stink that's coming from it!!!
-
I'll give that a go Whilst repairing the upstairs plug pivot type thingy-ma-dooda, I had the waste pipes off and I was blaming toothpaste for the accummulation of crap that was in there! They haven't been in long atall!! Not impossible now that the kids can handle the toothpaste tube themselves
-
Not sure, I'd have to go and look at the photos we took whilst the extension was being built I suppose. It's only been up for 2 or 3 years, but sometimes this happens. Doesn't seem to be no rhyme nor reason to it. Toilet used /Flushed Daily, sinks likewise, washing machine never seems to be off. Have filled sinks with water, but haven't taped up the 'overflows' yet to see if they could be the source....forgot about them..

If I though that would work....... It's BAD! Almost make you spew when i's there. Sulphorous, Sh*tty kinda smell, but drains ok, etc etc...??
-
Every now and again we get a horrendous smell appearing from somewhere in our utility room. There are 2 sinks, a toilet and the gas boiler in there, and the smell doesn't appear to be coming from any of these individually, more of a general stink in the room. I have had my head in all kinds of places trying to pin point it, but it's just kinda there. There would also be the waste pipe for the washing machine in there, but again, no apparent 'source' Boiler was new 2 years ago and was only 'serviced' last month, so kinda ruled it out. Anyone got any ideas? And no, it doesn't ju

Our Wood Burning Stove is starting to play up, and have been looking at a replacement, but they are NOT Cheap. So.... The main 'body' of the stove is cracked in all 4 corners of the door aperture, is it worth welding? The door seals are a bit poor, but think the replacement rope is not dear. There appears to be a HUGE amout of soot getting into the void around the boiler tanks (which I'm told shouldn't be happening), so is it easy enough to replace the soot box which I'm assuming is the culprit? Could I crawl up the chimney to do this, or how are they in there in the 1st place? It ha

For your £3k, you won't get much. It will need a lot of work unless you happen to be really lucky and find someone who doesn't know what they go for. Watch out for tarted up motor. Pleanty folk willing to skin ya out there. Had a few landy's over the years, and some of the so called 'Repairs' I have came across would shock you. Much cheaper for parts, but as has been mentioned, look out with patern parts, Genuine will be better, but obviously dearer. I have an old Series landy with a 200TDi in it. Range Rover Diffs and an Over Drive. 1969, so no road Tax, and it suits me down to th

It's a dog.....Not a f**kin PANDA!! £1200? I'd want something with 4 wheels, and a years MOT for that! They still think they got a good deal! They don't want to buy anything else then do they? I've got a few landrovers lying about.......
