  • Hanging a chandelier over a bath

    Is it possible/safe to hang a chandelier over a bath tub? How can I tell whether this is safe and if it can be done? What needs to be checked? Is it okay to install this DIY? Can I perform the checks myself to verify that it’s okay to install a chandelier here or will I need to hire a bathroom fitter?

    How can reappearing hairline cracks be hidden?

    Hello all I’m sure some of you have had this issue yourselves where cracks show up on walls, but I’ve had some reappearing hairline cracks along some of my walls, even after repainting the walls. I had previously filled these cracks using compound with coats of paint on after – but they still show up again in time. Is there anyway ways that I can resolve these recurring hairline cracks? Any advice would be appreciated on this!
