Hi there I have a persistent damp patch directly in the middle of the chimney breast in a third floor bedroom of my old 1905 house. We have had lots of roof work done and lots of roofers come and go, not having a definite answer as to why it's there. We have since had the stack removed under the tile line but the patch is still there. There are no obvious leaks and we've had ridge tiles pointed, re-tiled the full area around it, and bricks sealed (amongst other things) and spent a lot of time and money we don't have and still it comes back a few hours after it has rained. We are thinking of removing the chimney breast now entirely from that room in the hope that sorts it. As the stack is gone, is this a relatively straight forward job? How much would I expect to pay? Alternatively, does anyone know why/how this moisture is getting in and going to the centre of the chimney breast?! Thanks!

I have a cat and a dog at home. I need to feel confident that a cleaning service won’t let them out, it’s a major concern for me. How can I make sure of this? I just feel people sometimes will hear what I say but they might just yes sure to be polite and I want to be sure.
I have a flush dome ceiling light in the bathroom. I am unable to open the glass dome to change the bulbs. I have tried Google, YouTube and everything. I tried using vinyl gloves and sticky tapes to try and twist it counter clockwise but it won't open. It's stuck! Can anyone give me some advice. Help!
Carpet fitter wanted to use spray glue to stick down carpet? Yes he was using grippers and stair pads and bars, but wanted to glue the whole lot down to stop it from moving and curling. He used spray glue when cutting the carpet which melted the gloss paint on the stairs and he left dirty boot prints embedded in the melted paint. He also cut the carpet outside in the communal car park without putting down any protection, is this the norm for carpet fitters or would there be alternatives to prevent such damage?
