  • Glazed wine cellar units

    I've seen some really cool wine cellar units installed in the floor with a glass trap door. They're supposed to be easy to install but I can't find any info on floor strength requirements etc. Does anyone know much about these?

    Replacing Aga with Gas Fireplace

    Hi, After our Aga is removed, what do we need to do to safely install a gas stove/fireplace? We currently have an Aga in a brick chimney breast in the kitchen. There is a chimney opening that goes up 2 floors, through other people's flats and out the roof chimney. We are on the ground floor in a large Victorian house that has been divided into flats. The fireplace opening is probably the original one. However, we don't know if the current black flue goes all the way through the roof. The Aga is a gas Aga, so gas is already running to that space. Any information you can give will be greatly appreciated. Once we are sure we can go ahead with the plan and will ask for quotes for the installation. Thanks.

    I've just bought a property which I'm refurbing. It has a small extension which has been build and one of the 3 walls is a single skin wall. Is this allowed now? Do I need to rebuild it? How do I go about insulating it properly if not? Thanks in advance.

    Fitting skirting about radiator pipes

    We’re looking to fit new skirting, the old skirting we had was 45mm our new skirting is 119mm but the issue we have are the pipes for the radiators. They’re quite low down which is causing a problem with how high the new skirting is. How would we tackle this problem? Jigsaw the skirting to fit round the pipes? Or try and slot the skirting behind the pipes by removing the radiator temporarily?
