We have just bought our first family home but the staircase is open on one side. Obviously this is unsafe so I want some sort of handrail/banister. How much will it cost to add a banister or handrail to the open ended staircase? Its 12 steps to the top. I'm not too fussed about the material, just need to know roughtly how much it would cost? How much would glass stair balustrade panels cost?

Hi I've spotted mould on the plaster boards as the renovation is taking longer than expected. Will it's cause an issue later on an how should I deal with it? New plaster boards?

Hi. Could I ask please. Our house was re plastered. New interior window sills (plastic) were fitted. I’m wondering if the plaster should go right up to the sill. Not only are there draughts the plaster doesn’t finish properly (in a straight line) but you can also see bare brick. I’m not sure if I’m just being picky or whether this is shoddy work.

Good Afternoon I am a Landlord in Scotland. My smoke, heat and carbon monoxide detectors are all installed as per regulatory requirements with the recent addition of a hard-wired carbon monoxide detector. Whilst I understand the carbon monoxide detector is not required to be interlinked to the smoke / heat detectors, where it is possible to do so, would the recommendation be for these to be interlinked? The manufacturer, Aico, has confirmed they can indeed be interlinked however the Electrician who installed them has a different view. I would appreciate any advice you may be able to offer as I'd rather make the correct choice. Kind Regards Brad
Hi, I have some rips in the lining paper in a house I've just moved into. It looks like these are from command strips stuck to the walls, so it's just ripped the surface of the lining paper off. I want to paint over these but because of the fluffy texture I'm not sure if the paint will stick. How would I fix the ripped patches? Any help/advice would be appreciated, thanks.
