Hi I'm in my mid twenties years old and would love to start a career in Plumbing. What is the best way to getting qualified? I was told that City of Guilds is one of the best options for getting a qualification. Is this true? Whether it is or not, I would really appreciate some more information on this matter. The sooner I can start the better. Thanks in advance
I have several Artex ceilings in my house and I'd like to freshen things up. I've read that plastering over Artex is one way to 'get rid of it'. I'd like to know if this is a long-term solution or will I need to replace the Artex ceilings eventually?
Hi all, How do I go about starting the planning process for a single storey extension on my home? I want to have a small extension built to the side of the existing building, to be used an additional utility room. Shall I get quotes before having plans made or have the plans made first? Are architects able to advise me on the plans themselves? And what would be an approximate cost for an architect to produce the plans for the extension? Will I need planning permission for this extension? It will be entirely within my property boundaries. Additionally, please let me know if you have any ideas of how long this could take, how long to have quotes/plans made or any other advice for building an extension like this.
Hi, I'm a tenant and can only have smart switches installed in the property I'm renting if: 1. The install is made by a professional with a certificate that would be used for insurance purposes 2. The switches are removed after the tenancy with another certificate that everything is back to the initial condition. Costs are totally prohibitive for an installation that will be temporary in nature like this. What I would like to have answered instead would be if it is possible to make all the installs myself, go through the pain and time waste of ensuring everything works and only pay for the labor of having a qualified electrician come to check and certify that the install was made to the best UK standards. (Then, the same in reverse to verify and certify the removal and reinstall of the initial switches. Many thanks for your help!
My bathroom extractor fan is no longer working. It is turning on but not doing its job. How can I identify the exact cause?
What can I do if I’m not sure how safely an electrician is working? What if I see signs that to me looks like they may not be doing things right?
I have 2 lights in my Kitchen/Diner and looking to replace them with a dozen spotlights. These will need to be fitted from underneath i.e not taking carpet up from above. What should i expect to pay for the job and will a plasterer be needed after ?
What's the narrowest a corridor can be in your house? Our bathroom is currently off a bedroom, so building a corridor would make it more accessible. But we're not sure if we can squeeze it in.
Is there need to tank the shower walls if a shower tray is being used? Having mixed opinions from different tilers coming to price the job. Thanks
Do most kitchen fitters offer CAD or 3D drawings of a kitchen design before going ahead with the installation?
