  • Rough cost to shorten doors

    How much would it be roughly for someone to come out and shorten 9 doors, since the carpets have been fitted the doors no longer swing so need a small amount taken off each and the door hung again?

    Driveway extension-cost

    I'm looking for ballpark figures for a driveway extension. I understand it's difficult without seeing it in oerosn but would like to know how much cash I'm looking at having to save for it, roughly. It's to extend an existing single driveway into a double. The area to be converted is currently covered in loose gravel, about 120 millimetres deep, with soft earth underneath. The area is also sloped towards the house at about a ten degree gradient. It's around eleven square metres in total. I've already been granted permission for a dropped kerb and am awaiting a separate quote for that too.

    What products do I need to install bathroom tiles myself?

    Hello, I will be doing some tiling work in my bathroom to replace some damaged tiles. I’ve not done any tiling work in a bathroom before – so I don’t know if there is any special sealants or other products I should be using. At the moment I am planning to use some bathroom specific tile adhesive and some tile grouting to seal the gaps between the tiles after they have been fitted. Is grouting absolutely necessary if the tiles are already fitted due to the adhesive already? Will I need any other products for fitting tiles? If there is any other tools or products anyone would recommend using to get the job done right, please let me know.
