  • Has my shower screen been sealed correctly?

    Hello, I have installed a new bath shower screen recently. It does fit, but seems to be a little looser than expected. Does this happen usually, or ought there be more stiffness or friction to limit it’s movement? Also – I have a seal leak at the end of the hinge. Is there a possible way to stop this? Or any recommended seals I should use instead? Any advice would be appreciated – thanks!

    Can you just replace countertops?

    I need help with a question about replacing kitchen countertops. So we just bought a new house and I like the gloss cupboards but don’t like the countertops. Is it possible to take off just the countertop and replace it with a nicer one without damaging the cupboards or wall tiles behind it?

    advice on fitting a new kitchen with updated appliances

    I am looking to have a new kitchen fitted in my home. In essence, I would like to have my old kitchen completely remodelled. I am looking to have a microwave, fridge and dishwasher replaced with up to date, smart versions. I am planning to also have a kitchen island added and several cabinets replaced. Further I would like to have the floorboards replaced with engineered wood flooring. Finally, I would also like to have the walls and ceiling repainted. With all of this taken into account, what sort of price do you think I might expect to pay for this specific kitchen redesign/remodelling?

    I've just noticed that 4 of the double glazed windows in my mums bungalow have condensation inside. They arent that old and appear to be in good condition apart from the condensation. Is there anything that can be done to remove it or do the windows need to be replaced?

    Installing synthetic/artificial grass

    Hello, I'd like to make some improvements to my small garden but I am not sure what the best option is. Currently, my garden is covered with paving slabs; it suited my needs for a long while but now I'd like it to have a bit more of a natural look and feel. I'd very much like having real grass, but due to my age, I'd not be able to take care of it. Therefore synthetic/artifical grass is my only option. I did some research and I believe I have two options: 1. Cover the paving slabs with underlay and place the synthetic grass on top of it or 2. Remove the paving slabs and place the synthetic grass. Options 1 appears to be the easiest, but the cost of grass and underlay is high and I'd assume it would not have the soft feel. Options 2 appears to be more labour consuming and possibly the cost would higher than option one. If the paving slabs are removed, is it necessary to lay Sub-Base and Laying Course? Thank you Eva
