    Removal of old garage

    How much does it normally cost to remove an old garage made from concrete and asbestos? I know it's a specialist job but I'm not sure of a ballpark figure and I want to make sure I'm not being ripped off. I live in the North West and there's plenty of room for access.

    Brick replacement

    A house I'm looking at buying looks like it needs the bricks replacing around the base of the patio door, not sure if it is poor fitting or frost damage, awaiting the results of the building survey. The patio door could probably do with replacing too. Could you take the patio door out and replace a couple of lines of bricks (probably about ten feet across the wall) prior to installing a new door? Would you have to wait for these to cure/mortar to dry prior to fitting a new door?

    Subsidence in 1960's home (sale completed only yesterday)

    Great video. If you don't mind I have a question, I've just moved into a property built in the 1960's it had a one crack in the outside brickwork on the first floor a wide (>10mm) crack in the interior kitchen wall and on the first day in the property I removed the wallpaper in the bathroom (directly above the kitchen) and found another wide (>10mm) crack. It seems to fit the criteria of subsidence, would the surveyor working on behalf of the mortgage advisor have missed this? Who would be liable for this if it is subsidence since I've only had the property 1 day? What steps should I take next?
