    • How to protect fence
    Gardeners - 10 answers

    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

    Ripped lining paper surface
    Painters & Decorators - 10 answers

    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.

    Sanitary Sealant
    Plumbers - 10 answers

    Hi - I've often found in commercial premises that the sealant used around showers and kitchen worktops is thicker than the standard sealant you might purchase for domestic premises. I'd describe the product as a rubberised solid type sealant once set. Does anyone know what this product is and where it can be purchased? Thanks

    Should I put on undercoat when painting panelling?
    Painters & Decorators - 12 answers

    Hi. I have new wooden panelling a mixture of mdf tulip wood and pine. I primed it 2 to 3 times until it was evenly white. I didn’t undercoat because farrow and ball only supply a combined primer and undercoat and another combined option like that was v thick and viscous and difficult to work with. So I went straight to farrow and ball modern eggshell for a 40-% sheen. I have put two coats on and from a distance it looks fine bit up close it looks streaky and pretty obvious brush marks. The paint goes on v smoothly and looks v nice but once it dries it looks terrible. Can you help???
