About the DIY Doctor Forum

The DIY Doctor Forum is moderated. This means that DIY Doctor and our dedicated band of moderators will approve posts before they appear on the Forum to ensure that potentially dangerous advice isn’t posted. We also like to keep in clean and aim to ensure that we are offering people constructive (excuse the pun!) and respectful information.

Like the rest of the site, there is no charge for the information that is published here, which is why we do display some advertisements which help to cover the cost of running the website and the forum.

To view any of the information in this forum simply click into the Forum Index.

If you have any ideas or suggestions about how we can do things better or you feel that something is wrong, please get in touch.

We will respond to everyone once we have an adequate answer.
