    Is there a way of making a flat dormer loft conversion look nice? I'm worried it'll ruin the house's kerb appeal.

    Condensation on double glazed windows

    Hi, I had new double glazed windows fitted approximately 2.5 years ago but couldn't move in as there were still work going on in the house. Now that we've moved in we've noticed there is significant condensation daily, to the point where water is dripping onto the window sills. Turning on/off the vents hasn’t helped at all. We tried to get in touch with the guy who fitted the windows but can't get hold of him. Any ideas the reason behind the condensation and how to resolve this please. Any advice will be much appreciated. Regards

    How much space is needed around a fridge freezer

    Seems like a simple question, but I can't find a consistent answer. Does building regulations come into play here?

    How much underlay do i need?

    I'm mainly asking because I don't understand if I need underlay under everything or just the main floor area? There are wardrobes and odd corners in the room, so I’m not sure if underlay goes wall to wall or only where the flooring will be walked on. Don't think it'll make much impact to the cost, but just trying to get it as close to a pro as a I can!
