    Damaged waterproofing - can it be repaired?

    Hi. We are renovating our bathroom with a tiled walk in shower but the tiler has placed the drain totally crooked. He now tried to remove and change it but damaged the waterproofing during this process. Can this be fixed in just the area where it got damaged or do we need to remove all tiles (floor and up the wall) and replace it entirely? What is the best solution please? 🙁

    Going from pitched roof to flat

    Hello, I have a bungalow which has a small extension to the side running the length of the property. The flat roof on the extension is knackered. I want to take it all off and re-do the extension properly by building and replacing all the windows etc. Where the original house was the guttering is still on it and the flat roof is under the guttering. When i build the side extension do i need to keep this guttering or can i raise the roof a little and have it so the rain water runs straight off the house roof onto the flat roof then into the gutter of the flat roof? If not what else coudl i do?
