Hi there, I just bought a house and there's a small porch and WC that was added to the original property. The wall beside the entrance door seems to be made of plywood on the bottom and the tip is made of glass. I'd like to have it changed to something that at least look like a proper wall, even if it's not. My question is: do I need a builder or a carpenter to do the job? Also, do I need planning permission for this change? Thank you so much for any advice. I'm also open to quotations if you feel you could do the job, please.

I have a leak underneath my kitchen sink which seems to be due to the fitting (I.e. I think the sealant has worn away around the sink and it's a wooden worktop). It's 6 years since it was fitted. Is there a specific type of sealant I need or does the sink need refitting? I don't want the sealant to show and the gap isn't very big!

I have a new build house with a little slope, I want to put the garden on 2 levels, bottom will be paved and the top I want to build a retaining sleeper wall with artificial grass on top. The right side of the garden will be fine to put soil up against as it has a brick wall to retain the bottom of the houses next to us but the other side the left hand side has a fence running along the slope. So If I build a retaining wall, all the soil will be up against it. How can I make sure I don't damage the fence? Thanks

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.

My survey has picked up minor roof spread and advises improving restraint at ceiling joist level and potentially strengthening the rafter feet. Who do I need to assess this, a builder, roofer or engineer? Approx what costs might I be looking at?
