  • cost of replacing 15 linear metre area of aluminium guttering for uPVC

    I have a 15 linear metre area of guttering along the front of my house and the same coverage along the back of my house. In both cases it is aluminium guttering that is present. I’d like to have both areas (so 30 metres in length of gutters altogether) replaced with uPVC guttering. How much can I expect to pay a guttering installer to perform this work in terms of their installation fee? And how much will the new gutters cost? What about the cost of removing the old guttering? Am I best hiring a skip or will most professionals sort this out for me and I pay them a charge as part of my overall bill? I’d just like to know how this works. Thanks for your time.

    Log burner recess plastering

    We have had our living room skimmed and we are getting a log burner installed. We have had the face of the wall with the recess skimmed and we were going to restore the pre-existing bricks, however the angle bead has been placed into the recess and is visible against the brick. Is there a way around this - we have been advised a return will be placed to box the metal in, but we’re worried as to how obvious this will be. Thanks!

    What can I do about gaps in my wood floor?

    There are notable gaps in my wood floor. Do you know why this might be and if there’s anything I can do about it? Should I have a professional take a look at it instead of dealing with it myself?
