Hi all A few months ago I had been redecorating my bathroom, which included repainting the ceiling. I had used Dulux’ bathroom specific paint – for better mould and moisture resistance. Since then, the paint has become flaky as small cracks are appearing – surely this is too soon for any noticeable wear? Is there any better suited paints for bathrooms ceilings? Or is there some way that the paint should be applied to be most effective?
I would like to lay a 16 x 10 shed base as heap as possible. The last year has made finances extremely tight. What is the best way to do this please. I would like to afford to hire someone to help me but it's just not possible at the moment. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hi I am looking to buy a new kitchen suite and would like to know where the best place to buy a full kitchen would be? I want to buy it and get it installed ideally unless it would be better to buy it separately? I'm after the full kitchen with units, worktops and built in appliances. Any advice on the best place to buy them from without getting ripped off would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello I have been trying to get my TV to connect to an aerial point of the home, but there apparently no TV signal. This is an aerial port I have not used before and features two cables from the point. The aerial seems to have worked fine through other ports in the past. Has anyone any advice on this issue?
If i have turf layed on sand instead of top soil as the existing surface is not rotovated or dug, how long will it last?
In my garden I have some paving slabs, laid a few years ago, which have become increasingly uneven since then. The paving itself seems fine apart from some wearing around the edges. Does anyone know why this happens or how it could be fixed easily? Or even, if anyone knows how I can prevent this happening again in future? I have been told that adding ‘sharp sand’ beneath the slabs to fill beneath can help even it – or would it be best to re-lay the slabs with some new sand underneath? Thanks, Mo
Hi All, I hope this isn’t too silly to ask, but can I paint my radiator using tile paint? It’s just to cover some rusty patches where the paint has flaked off. I don’t have any other paint available right now, but don’t know if there is any special paint I should be using and I’m cautious it might affect the radiator working. Many thanks, K
I have some kitchen cupboard doors which are starting to look a bit worse for wear. It’s had some basic water damage which have turned created a few dark patches (from some leaks of the sink above). Should I replace these doors or are they possible to clean up, repair & repaint? If I can repaint them, what types of paint are best to use? Thanks
