  • Lintel repair or more?

    We're looking at buying the first floor maisonette. It is in a block of four. I'm concerned about the wide v shaped crack leading from ground floor window up to the sill of first floor window. Is this easily repairable and if so how much would it cost? There are hairline cracks in the bedroom to the back of the building - could this be related? Sorry - novice here!

    Warm outdoor tap

    Years ago we had an outdoor tap fitted that gave us warm water for washing our dogs. Kitchen sink was moved during refurb and they changed all the pipes so now only hot water out of the tap…they removed a small valve that was really small and simple but I can’t find it online anywhere- it wasn’t one of the big TMVs I’ve seen- just a small brass joint..any help appreciated!

    Moving a door - fixing/building wall

    Our house is a typical 1930 mid-terraced house. When you enter you see a wall at the end of the corridor, because the kitchen door is under/behind the stairs. We want to move the door to the left side of the wall (so you can see it when you enter the house) and close the area under the stairs to make storage space. How much would cost to fix/build the wall (where the door sits currently) and open a door on the left side?
