    Rendering repair or refurb?

    Hi, I think is a question for a builder...but maybe it's for roofers. We are looking to buy a Victorian end terrace which has been rendered. Our surveyor's report has noted some cracking as well as poor, patchy repair work to the render & has recommended that we get this repaired. Would you expect a better result from a complete overhaul of the render - remove and replace - or would repair work be adequate? And how much would you expect it to cost? Thanks!

    Converting Conservatory to Extension with Downstairs Toilet

    Hi, We have a conservatory with tiled floors and polycarbonate roof. Can we convert that into an extension, that could also house a small wet room/toilet? If so, what are the steps we need to take (hire an architect? get planning permission)? Completely clueless about possibilities and what we need to do to get this happening. Thanks.

    Would building a new swimming pool need planning permission?

    Hi all I am looking into getting a new outdoor swimming pool installed in my garden soon – it will be a reasonable distance away from the house and be well within my boundaries. Will I need planning permission for this? Will I need to meet any other regulations/permissions? Any info would be appreciated!

    How much do waste removal services with skips cost?

    Hello, Due to some major renovation work we have planned for our home, we will need a waste removal service to get rid of the junk being cleared out. We would ideally like to hire a skip for the waste with removal service after the renovation is finished. Does anyone have any estimates of the costs for hiring a waste removal service? Do most waste removal companies provide skips as part of the service? Are there any other costs involved?
