  • Bowed living room floor

    Hi, I've noticed a slight bowing in the floor in my living room/dining room. Our survey didn't pick up any subsidence so I don't think it's that but I think the issue might be with the wooden floorboards under the carpet. Googling has made me think I might need floorboards and joists replaced but I wanted to know - what scope of job should I be expecting to enter into? For a room measuring roughly 4m by 7m. Would it be a fix costing 1000s, tens of 1000s? Any help or advice appreciated.

    Dormer vs Velux rooflight for loft

    Is it worth paying extra for a dormer window rather than have a Velux rooflight in a loft conversion? Does it make any difference to how much light it brings in or to the house value?

    Average cost of 10 low pitch roof tiles with labour cost

    Can I have a rough estimate of how much it might cost to purchase 10 low pitch roof tiles from a supplier? Where are the best places to go to find these tiles? How about websites online too? If I hire a roofer to fit these roof shingles in place of old tiles, how much can I expect to pay as the labour cost? Will it cost much extra to have the old roof tiles removed?
