    • How much to box in pipes?
    Joiners - 9 answers

    Hello, I recently purchased a 2 bedroom downstairs flat. The central heating system runs around the bottom of the floor all around the flat at just above skirting board level. The system works fine and recently had a new boiler but I think the copper pipes are ugly and i'm just wondering if i can get a carpenter/joiner to box them in? How much should i expect it to cost? I need about 15-20 metres in total, boxed in and painted. Thanks

    Loft Conversion
    Loft Specialists - 7 answers

    Hello, I’m in the stages of planning a loft conversion. It’s not a huge loft and will probably only fit a desk and will be used for storage. I was advised to install two velux windows as to start with so at least we can get some light. I will need separate staircase going into the loft, for which there is space to do so - would I need an architect to draw all this up?

    How do I remove skirting boards around pipework/radiators?
    Handymen - 10 answers

    Hi all, We have moved into a new property and are in the process of renovation currently – which includes removing the old skirting boards to replace with newer style skirting boards instead. Our main concern with removing the skirting boards is the radiator pipes that intersect with them and some micro pipes running along the boards. How can we remove the skirting boards safely without causing any damage to the piping work? Any suggestions would be great to hear about!

    Do you need to use trunking when installing a new UK plug socket and plaster?
    Electricians - 10 answers

    I have added a new double socket above an original one, and now it's time to plaster in the gap (which was used to get cables in), but do I need to trunk the wires before plaster them? I get mixed answers on this topic. And if so, what sort of trunking should use. Thank you!

    Brick up a PVC back door
    Builders - 7 answers

    I'm planning on getting a new kitchen fitted. To maximise on space, I want the back door (standard size, wooden) to be bricked up. How much should I budget for that? Also- is that the work of a bricklayer or builder?

    How do I refit slates to my roof?
    Roofers - 11 answers

    I have had some slate tiles fall from my roof recently due to weather and general ageing. Some of the tiles are barely damaged so would be reusable and I will find some replacement for any others. What would I need to set the slates back on the roof most effectively? Would it usually be by using cement or some other adhesives to keep them in place correctly? I would like to resolve this myself if possible.

    How do I remove and replace a toilet seat?
    Handymen - 12 answers

    Hello I have a damaged bathroom toilet seat which I need to remove to be replaced. I remember from previous houses’ toilets that there are usually screws fixing it into the toilet unit itself, but I don’t know how to reach this section to unscrew the seat. Is there any method that will apply to toilet seats? And am I right to assume that the new seat can just be screwed into the same sections of the toilet unit too? Or is there any additional steps to include?

    Can I install a wall light myself?
    Electricians - 17 answers

    Hi everyone, I hope you can help. We’ve just moved into a new house and the conservatory doesn’t have any light fixtures. It does have a light switch already installed so there is definitely wiring in there. We want to install a wall light. Is this something I can do myself with no experience or do I need to hire an electrician?
