Hello all I am planning on having the same carpet fitted across multiple rooms in my home. Are carpet door bars going to be required even if it is the same joined carpet between the rooms? Will it help to keep the carpets fitted, neat, etc? Is there any other options instead for the door bars which still allow the carpet to be fitted across rooms?
Hi! I have workmen who have sanded our wooden floor. The stain they put down is too light. They said they have to resand and basically start whole job again at my expense. Can’t they just apply a darker wood stain over the top without resanding?
Hi Have a new extension size 6x3m. I’m being charged £900 for labour and now being asked to Pay for all materials after agreement. Is this too much? Am supplying the tiles
My kitchen floor has developed bumps. There is a concrete base which appears intact but a new (4 yr old) screed has cracked and 'erupted'. I have had it checked for damp and a builder has looked at it too and can't identify the cause.
Had discussions with local fitters but unable to get a definitive answer … Should vinyl flooring be fitted before or after bathroom toilet and shower install?
Dog has damaged a section of wooden floorboard style laminate floor. Is it possible to just replace a small section without it looking obvious?
In the case of a wooden floor, is it necessary to leave an expansion gap? Does it depend on the context/floor?
How much would it cost to just prepare an existing concrete floor (so roughing up and priming) for a traditional sand and cement screed? Area approx eighty square metres. Thank you.
Hello, I have a problem with the house I have just bought where whenever is rains, there's a very strong gas type smell in my cellar - quite like sulfur. This smell spreads to the rest of the house and makes you feel nauseous. I have had a drainsman come out who did a CCTV inspection and there's no damage to the drains that should cause any problems. He said because the house has been empty for some time, I should run a hot bath full of bleach once or twice a week then pull the plug to help clean the drains in case this is what is causing the problem. I have tried this but it hasn't solved the problem. I was at the house last night and it was raining slightly outside and the smell was very strong. I have noticed the smell is worse if the rain is quite fine. I am lost as to where to go now to get this issue sorted. Can anybody point me in the right direction? Any help would be appreciated.
Why are some engineered wood flooring planks so much more expensive than others, even when the wood layer is the same? E.g. Woodpecker is £80+/sqm vs Liberty which is ~£50/sqm.
