    Can I put up alcove shelving?

    Hello all, I am looking into putting up shelves in some shallow alcoves (approximately a metre wide). They are located close to my living room fireplace. Would it be sufficient to use floating shelves or would I need brackets? I intend to use these as bookshelves, so there will be some weight to them. Advice on this would be brilliant!

    External Window Beads

    I am currently looking at looking to purchase a property and in the survey report it was spotted that the window Beads are on the outside of the property. Does this mean that someone can remove the windows to gain access to the property? Would such a defect void a contents insurance policy? Are there any means of securing the windows even if they are they other way round?

    What kind of tradesman would drill a hole in the wall to fit a portable air con unit hose through?

    I'm struggling to know where to turn on this one! I'd like to be able to vent the hoses of my two portable air con units (one upstairs, one downstairs) through the wall and outside of the house, rather than via the window. I'm struggling to know who to contact to get a quote / organise drilling said holes and fitting the hose! I really don't want to be messing around with anyone who doesn't know what they're doing, but have no idea what kind of tradesman might do this job? Air con companies only deal with installing proper fitted units (££££). Thanks for any advice!
