  • cost of upgrading and fitting a new bathroom on a budget

    I would like to have my bathroom completely upgraded. It's fairly old and worn at this stage but given the ongoing Covid-19 situation, I don't want to be spending too much. How can I have a new bathroom fitted on a budget? And how cheap could the installation be?

    Box room into toilet with small sink

    I have a 3 bed cottage in Goodwick, West Wales. We don't have a toilet upstairs, but do have a small 2m square box room that I'd like to have converted. Would be needing a toilet, sink and the tile work, plumbing etc. I was wondering roughly what to budget from a basic conversion?

    Best paint to use?

    I have a large bay window sill to paint approx 1.5m x 2m and I have tried to do this twice now only to have the same result... by the time I have cut in and started to fill in the middle the paint has started to dry and makes a mess when I get to the end. Is there a good Satin/EggShell paint that doesn't dry so quick and follows well that it allows you to paint the whole sill before it dry's out?

    Raised floor tiling methods

    Hi! I have a beauty salon opening in a couple weeks. I hired the same builder to do floors, ceilings, walls, plumbing, carpentry, demolition, etc. and have a question about the quality of their work. The builder was hired to build two separate raised platforms on the main floor to support raised benches and work areas for pedicure services. The agreement was to use the same faux-marble ceramic tiling as the floor itself so that it’s just essentially a raised step. We did not discuss the builders use of metal tile trim along the edges of the raised platforms—sort of to cap the corners of the ceramic. I’m concerned this is clearly cutting corners and it is not aesthetically favourable. Considering there was no discussion regarding the use of trim, can I insist he redo it? This is for a £20K+ full shop fitting renovation after all. Also, his tile work is rather sloppy and there are significant chips along the cut lines too. Much thanks for any insight!
