  • Are amplified loop aerials any good?

    Are amplified loop indoor aerials any good? I need to improve the Freeview signal in my bedroom and this seems like a cheap and easy option. But do they actually work?

    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!

    advice on installing a shower by myself or if a professional is needed

    Is it safe for me to replace a shower by myself? Is this the type of work that should be performed by an electrician? Is it even legal for a DIY enthusiast to perform this work? If it is legal, what safety steps must I take?

    japanese knotweed issues

    Are you obliged to hire a professional if there is Japanese knotweed in your garden? I do not have this issue as of now but a neighbour had a problem with it before and I’ve heard of a few other people in the area experiencing issues with Japanese knotweed so I thought I would ask in advance should it happen to appear in my back garden. What else must I do in this scenario? I am aware of course that you must not cut it but what else must I do and must I not do if it ever pops up?

    Can I put a toilet on the front wall of my house?

    I am hoping to move around some of the rooms in a house I just bought, and I wanted to move the bathroom to the front of the house. If the toilet is on the same wall as my front door, will I need a waste pipe at the front of my house? I’m hoping there are other options!
