Is it likely that a loft needs new joists before being converted? I guess this could vary a lot from house to house?
Hello. I have a problem with what I believe is penetrating damp on an internal wall. There is no damage to the skirting or the lower part of the wall. The damage seems to be just above waist heigh and is slowly creeping horizontally. It looks like it's just the skim which is falling off. Underneath the skim looks to be cement plaster?. (It's grey and rough) There also seems to be salts being produced making the plaster fall off. What would be the best way to deal with this so I can redecorate. The wall in question has tiles on the opposite side as It's a dry cleaners which originally didn't have tiles and I believe that the tiles are pushing the moisture through to my side of the wall. I really appreciate any help with this problem. Thank you for your time.
Would it be possible to remove some old silicone around the edges of my skirting boards, and then replace it with grout? I had the a slate floor laid down last year, but unfortunately, the sealant has started to peal away from the skirting board. I need it removing completely in order to repaint the skirting board and tidy up the edges with grout. The grout that was used when laying down the floor was London grey. I can supply the grout if that helps. I require this silicone to be removed, as it does not look right. Thanks, Shane

What flooring creates the softest underfoot after carpet?
Recently had a full heating system put in, oil boiler, vented system, rads upstairs, UFH downstairs. System is losing pressure, plumbers have come back once and vented it and reset everything, a week later no pressure again. I have topped it up from filling loop, bled all rads. UFH is working fine. Can’t see any leaks, when I was filling up PRV was releasing air, but now I am stuck. Rads cold, slightly luke warm hot water, plumbers say air just needs to work its way through system. Any help to either push air quickly or get some heat into rads would be greatly appreciated
How much does it cost to run the central heating for a given hour in the UK? Does it depend on where I live or the supplier that I have? If so, how can I find out the cost per hour for me?
Hello We have had a combi installed which has replaced our old conventional boiler. We have however had lots of problems with the new boiler. There are strange noises coming from the boiler & also problems with the water pressure. If I put taps on it causes the bath hot tap to come on. The stream of water coming out of the kitchen hot tap was so fierce we could not turn the tap off so are no longer using the hot tap in the kitcen. The engineer insists it is just because we have old taps and is going to replace the taps. The main issue is that he did the boiler installation in a day with a colleague. I am worried about whether they took any shortcuts but don't know enough about this. Please advise as to whether you think this is just to do with the taps or whether it could be a problem with the boiler installation. Everything worked OK with the old boiler.
How much cost and time is required to remove kitchen worktop? The hob and sink will be reattached to a new worktop which the provider will be fitting, but they won’t remove it. Need someone that can disconnect and reconnect gas supply
