Hi, we're looking to purchase a semi-detached 3 bedroom house but the building survey pointed out there's ongoing penetrating dampness was noted in the two rear chimney breast. Some of the neighbouring properties have damp stains in the same position on the external walls, which indicates a design flaw that will need intrusive investigations of the roofs. Surveyor also suggested it may be necessary to remove all chimney breasts. How much does it cost for the damp proofing work above and turnaround time? Many thanks
Is AC or DC current safer? And why? Thanks!
Is there a way for me to tell precisely how permeable my driveway is? I’m trying to figure out how well it deals with water.
I've a wet room all tiled but I want to put a p bath in under the shower onto the walls. I don't want to have to redecorate, just install the bath. One plumber said he would seal it ato the tiles, another said you have to fix it to the wall not the tiles. He went on to say taking one row of tiles off may damage the next tiles and it'd be best having "mermaid" bath panels on the wall to fix the bath to. Which plumber is right? Thanks
We had a radiator installed a few months ago (Oct 2024) and all was going well - over the past few days we’ve had a LF code come up on our boiler which seems to resolve itself after resetting the boiler. Today the boiler would not resolve the LF code after resetting the boiler until we have turned off the new radiator that was installed. Any ideas? Initially when the new radiator was installed we had a issue with the boiler itself after the system was bled (this was resolved after cycling the boiler a few times)
Hi, I have been asked for a 50% deposit up front before work to be started on a new bathroom. It is 50% of the cost of materials and 50% of the cost of labour. If the work wasn't up to standard I'm guessing they could argue that the products are not mine and take them away unless I pay for the labour if it's not up to standard. Is this right? I feel like I won't be covered if anything goes wrong with the work. I asked for a contract and was told they don't have contracts but I can take their emails as a contract instead. They have stated they will complete the work by the date they have given me. Should I be worried?
