Do most kitchen fitters offer CAD or 3D drawings of a kitchen design before going ahead with the installation?
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
I have a thatched roof home that I am now looking to have repaired in a few areas. The majority of the roof is in suitable order, but there are some areas which will need replacing if possible. What are the costs involved in having repairs to a thatched roof?
Hi. Looking to get some advice on running power to a garden shed An uninsulated shed is around 25 meters from the rear of the house and the consumer unit/fuse box is at the front of the house which has no side access. Looking for advice on whether it is possible or advisable to run power from the kitchen to an uninsulated shed and what a ballpark might be for what is required. Have heard people say I could run power from the kitchen and run to another consumer unit in the shed. No idea if that’s correct…I have no electrical knowledge and would obviously get someone in. I may look in a few years to build a garden office but want a couple of sockets in the shed for power. Would be grateful for pointers and an idea on cost. If did the trench to the shed to save time and cost.
I want to replace my shower curtain with a more attractive shower screen. How difficult are they to install and is this something I could do myself or should I get someone in to do it? If I do get someone in, what sort of cost am I looking at (both for the screen and labour costs)? Thanks.
Hi, I'm having a cavity wall built and the contractor has quoted me a per block price of £2.20. is this a good price? He has also quoted 7Op per brick. This is just the labour cost as all the materials will be provided by myself.
Recently we have had one of our bedrooms re-plastered by a professional plasterer and decorator, but I’ve begun to notice that some of the areas are looking quite poorly done and not coated particularly thickly. Evident around plug sockets, switches and other fixtures in particular. It appears to be one layer of plaster that has been used. Is this normal for plasterwork nowadays? I recall that in previous years, plasterers would use two layers, but perhaps things have changed. I would like to know for sure, so that I know whether I will need to contact the plaster regarding their work. I would appreciate any information about this.
My garden is sloped but I would like to put a veg patch and perhaps some decking. What are the steps to leveling a garden? Size of garden is about 6 metres wide and 10-12 metres long.
Hi, I need to replace 5 internal doors with something like in the below link. https://www.diy.com/departments/cottage-primed-white-woodgrain-effect-lh-rh-internal-door-h-1981mm-w-686mm/175402_BQ.prd What would be the cost to fit/size and put door handles on?
Our patio door installer made a mistake when ordering our doors. We wanted them to open left-to-right, but he installed them right-to-left. We believe he ordered the wrong ones. When we pointed out the mistake, he came back the next day and turned the whole thing (doors and frame) around. My question is whether these doors will now meet building regulations? The sliding door and track is on the outside and the screws on the handle plate are on the outside. We noticed during the recent storms that the weep holes were on the inside. The fitter came and filled these in and drilled new ones on the outside of the door. This just doesn' feel right to me.
