    cost of fitting bamboo flooring for a 15 square metre room in Manchester

    I am considering having a bamboo flooring laid down for a 15 square metre room in place of carpet. I am based in Manchester and I’d like to know the estimated price tag I can expect to pay to have professional flooring fitters complete this installation work? How much might the actual bamboo floorboards cost? I’d like a high-quality product but nothing exceptionally dear, if possible. How about the labour costs? And what sort of waste disposal expense am I looking at paying for the removal of my current flooring? Is this something that can be dealt with by the contractors under the bill they give me? Or will I need to hire a third party company?

    Does CCTV installation affect insurance?

    If you have CCTV installed and take measures to improve home security, to what extent does this impact on insurance? If there was a burglary, if you had security are you more likely to have a favourable insurance offering since you’ve done more to protect your home or does it not work this way? Just something I thought was worth asking about.

    Back boiler replacement

    I’m looking to buy a property that had a back boiler and replacing this with a combi. The kitchen backs onto the fireplace so hoping it wouldn’t be too much of a job to relocate the boiler. The house has no gas heaters but obviously the house is connected to the gas through the back boiler. I know that prices will vary; but is there a rough costing for this? It’s a three bed house. Sadly I can’t get a gov grant as I don’t qualify. Any help will be appreciated in terms of potential cost to expect and also is it best to get radiators installs first and then replace boiler?
