Hi Could anyone give me an idea of cost to take down an old lath and plaster ceiling in a 12 foot x 11 foot room, then to plasterboard and plaster? We have been told £1100 which I feel is high, but but wanted to check. two men, two days apparently. Many thanks
Hi all, I’m looking to install skirting boards along my hallway walls. I have read some mixed messages about using some adhesives for skirting boards online and some recommending to instead have the skirting boards drilled in. Would adhesives be suitable enough for typical hallways? Is there any specific problems I should look out for if I went for the adhesive route? And are there any particular brands I should steer clear of for this? Currently, I have painted walls, which will be dry and there’s not likely much risk of damage day to day – if this makes a difference at all. I’d like to hear what others’ experiences have been using adhesives versus drilled in skirting boards.
Hi I am wanting to buy a new electric oven. At the moment I have a electric oven, but when it gets to a high temperature it fuses the house electrics. I only have a normal double socket. Would I need a cooker point installing, and if so, how much roughly for that and to install the oven.
Hi. I need to replace my cylinder door lock. However the screw head on the holding blot is damaged. Any suggestions Thanks.
How much to remove my old gas fire? I'm fitting an electric fire instead.
I've just bought a reconditioned washing machine. How much would it cost to have someone plumb it in for me? I assume a handyman can do it rather needing a plumber? I have mobility issues, so I can't do it myself but I'm scared of being ripped off.
We have 2 conifers that need reducing in height and width. We also have a Blackberry bush that needs clearing back. What sort of price should i expect it to cost, including the removal of cuttings?
Hi, I recently cleared out under my stairs and found mould growing along the back wall. After clearing it off with mould spray and bleach, I found in the plaster peeling off in the corner. Using a moisture meter I found it to be very damp at least 1.2m high. Will this wall panel need replacing? I also checked moisture content along the skirting board and I think all of it in the cupboard will need replacing. mAlso, is this question better for a plasterer or a builder? Maybe I'm asking the wrong people!
I hired a window fitter to replace my living room window. He's replaced the window but when he was installing it I felt like he used a lot of white silicon before he covered it with a cover. How much sealant would be too much? Also he used white sealant with a brown frame? Am i wrong in thinking he could have colour matched? Thanks.
What would you charge to clear a garden (+60foot) of overgrown trees and plants, brambles across the path and plants in the guttering.
