    Should I use Concrete or Paving Slabs in my garden?
    Gardeners - 5 answers

    Hello all, We are looking to have a patio-esque area in our garden by using slabs. We don’t know if we are best to use paving on these areas as they are or whether we should have a cement layer applied for the area. If anyone has any recommendation or experience with this type of thing, please let us know. Thanks!

    Mould problem in bedroom, can I just use Dulux easycare or should I be using Dulux bathroom?
    Painters & Decorators - 10 answers

    Hello, I am currently redecorating my room. There has been a persistent mould problem which has been looked at. We are planning on installing a ventilation system. Mould occurs on the exterior walls particularly around the window. I know I want to use Dulux. My plan was to use the bathroom paint, but I am wondering if the Easycare washable paint will suffice? There is little price difference between them so I was wondering what is the most suitable for a bedroom like mine? The only downside for the bathroom paint for me is that they don't come in a matt formula this however is not the end of the world! Any advice much appreciated! Thanks!
