Hi, How much (approximately) would it cost to install an RSJ to an external load bearing wall between a dining room and extension in order to open the dining room into the kitchen? This is to make an L shaped kitchen diner. This job would involve the removal of a wall below the RSJ, approximately 7ft x 6ft.

Hi, We have bought a house with a single garage with an asbestos roof that has holes in it and needs replacing. We are trying to decide on our best options as, ideally, we want to end up with a secure, dry and insulated space that can be sectioned off so we have an office/garden room at the back and plenty of storage space for furniture, gardening equipment etc at the front. What we cannot determine is whether the wetness within the garage is purely down to a leaky roof or whether there is also water coming up through the concrete floor. The garden is prone to flooding in certain sections, including behind the back corner of the garage. Is a builder the right trade to get in to look at this for us? We are conscious that anyone that comes out is likely looking to do the work but at this stage we are just looking for an honest appraisal so we can consider our options. Cheers.
How do I make a gully type feature to prevent water entering my very low underfloor air vents? The builder suggested digging a trench, placing a brick fort around the two vents, then filling the trench with pebbles or dirt. He mentioned a membrane, only I can't remember which type. Please can you advise as water currently goes under the floor through the air vents. (Old Edwardian property). Thanks so much.
