  • Front door weather stripping

    The weather stripping on my home’s front door has worn away. How can I go about adding a new coat of weather stripping? And on that note, would one coat be needed or more? Thanks in advance.

    neighbours roofing

    My neighbour has erected scaffolding which is hanging over my property and they did not have the decency to inform us about their roofing works. Is this acceptable? It is a semi detached property so are they allowed to interfere with my roof tiles without my permission?

    Insulate a party wall

    How best can a loft party wall be insulated? I’ve got a loft conversion and my neighbour doesn’t and in the winter the party wall in the loft gets a lot of condensation on it which result in mould growth so how best can I insulate the wall and eliminate mould growth and how thick should the insulation be. All advice is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Levelling subfloor in upstairs bedroom

    Hi guys, first time posting here. I'm having a bedroom in a council rented house completely gutted and the subfloor is in very bad state. Damaged and very dirty, I can see noticeable dips in the floor, it's nothing crazy bad but certainly wouldn't be suitable for a hardwood floor to go on top of my naive brain would think. I'm wondering how much or how I'd even go about getting it fixed? Would the whole subfloor need replaced? I've always had wonky floors in my house and I'm sick of it, since this room is gutted I want it done proper from the get go so I'm not rolling about the room like I'm on a rollercoaster. Since it's so dirty I thought just replacing the whole floor might be worth doing instead of cleaning it and then getting it *fixed* but I've no idea what that really entails. Any suggestions welcome.

    I live in Merseyside and I’d like to know what it might cost me to have my bath replaced. I would like to have a steel bath fitted in place of a small bath. Between the labour and supply costs, what sort of price tag am I looking at paying? The bathroom itself is an area of six square metres in total.

    Watching Sky TV in a conservatory?

    Is it easy to set up a TV in a conservatory? How would I be able to set it up and keep my Sky TV working out in a conservatory? Would I need to hire an electrician to extend plugs and wiring, etc. to this area? Would I need to contact Sky directly also for help? Thanks!
