    Megamixer mm21

    That is a really good deal!!!! Refina are doing the mm30 for £454 inc vat including £100 of free tools (you'll have to check if that offers still on). I like the peace of mind of being able to return it to Refina and not back to either Germany or someone small acting as a middle man in the uk.

    I just got my 2nd ever ??mm21?? (the biggest refina do) last one I got reconditioned, and it has lasted a good 7 years and its still going strong, but paddle went the other month, and when I rang up to order another I got duped in to buying a new mm21 with paddle which happily came with £100...

    Soundproofing

    Got a small domestic job to price where two flats are separated by single skin brickwork do sound travels through. Have told him best option would be to install a stud wall independent of brick wall, using sounds batts between studs and board with sound lock or even just double board it with...

    Skim before tiling?

    Gooners info was brilliant. The unfortunate thing with this question is there is no correct way to do it. There are people (mainly tilers) who want it skimmed always to make their life easier, but the question is IF it is skimmed the plasterer will be bonding the skim with pva, and as Gooners...
