  • Light fittings. What do you call the bit that screws into the bulb holder that holds the light shade in place? I need to replace one I lost.

    It's called the lampholder skirt. I think the threads are often proprietary, so you'd probably be best getting a complete pendant set (or whatever style of fitting you have). The lampholders are usually fairly knackered after a few years anyway, the last thing you want to do is hunt down the specific skirt and then crack the lampholder when you try to attach it.

  • If you can find a Wickes or similar outlet you'll find a bulb holder flex and ceiling rose for £1.99 with all the bits you'll ever need.
